Whether hosting a themed party or chilling at home with a horror movie marathon, these 10 Halloween strains can help make your night unforgettable. 

Ghost Train Haze

Sativa-Dominant Hybrid

Ghost Train Haze (GTH) might be misleading as there’s nothing hazy about this experience. The Ghost Train Haze strain is exceptionally potent, clocking in at 27% THC, ensuring it’s better suited for the experienced cannabis enthusiast. Its 80:20 sativa-to-indica genetics comes from its parents: Ghost OG and Neville’s Wreck. Ghost Train Haze has a sweet lemon flavor and an earthy, floral, citrus aroma.¹

Monster Cookies 

Indica-Dominant Hybrid

The Monster Cookies strain looks monster-ish with its bright green flowers, orange hairs, and thick white trichomes. The flavor and smell is berry sweet with hints of grape and vanilla. Monster Cookies is an 80% indica-dominant hybrid strain with an average THC content of 21%. The strain is a cross between the famous Girl Scout Cookies (GSC) and Granddaddy Purple.²

Zombie OG 

Indica-Dominant Hybrid

Zombie OG is the perfect eerie strain to include in your Halloween celebrations. Also called Zombie Kush, it is a relatively potent cannabis strain with an average of 18-21% THC. The combined genetics of OG Kush and Blackberry created this 90% indica-dominant hybrid with arrow-shaped nugs. Cannabis connoisseurs can expect a spicy, earthy taste with hints of pine and berry, while the smell is quite fruity.³

Monkey Massacre

Indica-Dominant Hybrid

The “massacre” part of the name may inspire true horror, but you’ve got nothing to worry about with this Halloween marijuana strain. Monkey Massacre, an indica-dominant hybrid, has a spicy, sweet orange flavor with diesel undertones. It has a similar aroma profile except for more earthy pepperiness. The parents of this strain are the classic Original Glue and Professor Moriarty, and this marriage created a cannabis plant with fat, green, arrow-shaped nugs. The strain’s THC level ranges from a high 18% to a very potent 28%.⁴

Hell Cat 

Hybrid

Hell Cat, or Hellcat, is a hybrid cannabis strain with 50:50 sativa-to-indica genetics. The strain’s parents are the ever-potent Rascal’s OG and SFV OG Kush, so it’s no surprise that Hell Cat is a highly potent Halloween strain with an average THC content of 27-30%. The pepper-shaped nugs with amber-colored hairs and white trichomes give off a sweet, lemony smell with hints of pine, herb, and earthiness. Hell Cat has a lovely, sour, woody, lemony taste with a woody finish.⁵

White Witch 

Hybrid

White Witch is another evenly balanced marijuana strain that has a 50:50 indica-to-sativa ratio, but this one is a lot less potent with an average of 19-21% THC. The plant is beautiful with its fluffy green nugs and white crystal trichomes with a spicy, herbal, woody smell and an intense earthy undertone. White Witch has a delicious spicy pine taste. The strain has a mystical appeal—White Widow is the one parent, but the other is an unknown hybrid.⁶

Cereal Killer 

Indica-Dominant Hybrid

You might “kill” for your favorite cereal after a Cereal Killer experience. This 70% indica-dominant hybrid has an average of 15-21% THC, making it a suitable beginner strain. Chocolate Chunk was crossed with Deep Chunk and Bubba Kush to create Cereal Killer, giving it three parents! The flavor of this Halloween strain will remind you of a berry, grape, and mango fruit salad with a touch of lavender. The strain smells like your favorite fruity cereal—a sweet and sour citrus mix.⁷

Pretty Wicked 

Sativa-Dominant Hybrid

Pretty Wicked is aptly named. With a high THC level of 22-25%, you’re in for a super potent experience. Chem D and Purple Mayhem are the proud parents of this sativa-dominant cannabis strain with dark olive leaves and popcorn-shaped nugs. The strain has an intense chemical flavor with hints of earth, spice, and fruitiness, while you can expect a sweet and spicy grape taste.⁸

Poison Glue

Sativa-Dominant Hybrid

Canna-connoisseurs will love this highly potent sativa-dominant strain. Poison Glue has a high THC content at an average of 29-30% and 70% sativa genetics. The South African landrace strain, Durban Poison, was crossed with Gorilla Glue #4 to create Poison Glue. The strain has a delicious flavor and aroma profile, reminiscent of a vanilla cookie.⁹

Phantom OG

Hybrid

If you’re into sweet citrus strains, give Phantom OG a try. The perfectly balanced hybrid strain has a sweet, lemony flavor with hints of pine woods, while the aroma is similar but more earthy. Phantom OG has mysterious origins. One parent is OG Kush; the second could be Earth OG, Jupiter OG, or Mars OG. The strain is relatively potent, with an average of 20-24% THC.¹⁰
