Art Style & Visual Character

Gentle, whimsical watercolor illustrations featuring charming ghost characters throughout all 78 cards. The 22 Major Arcana cards have holographic glitter on the ghost figures, and the card backs feature holographic patterns. Cards measure 7cm x 12cm and come in a sturdy rigid case with holographic accents. The aesthetic is cute-spooky — think friendly ghosts in a cozy Halloween world, not frightening at all. The color palette is soft pastels with watercolor washes. The overall vibe is playful, lighthearted, and enchanting.

Core Concept & Symbolism

Traditional RWS-based tarot reimagined through a ghost-themed lens. The deck takes classic tarot archetypes and translates them into a whimsical spirit world. Despite the "spooky" theme, the deck is deliberately gentle and non-threatening — ghosts are cute and friendly, making the sometimes heavy themes of tarot more approachable. Includes 3 bonus keyword cards for beginners.
