Add Intruder to House Photo

How it works

1. 1

   Upload your house photo

   Drop a photo of your hallway, doorway, or room into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Dimly lit photos work best for the creepy intruder effect.

   Expect: Most edits complete in 20-45 seconds. Darker photos may need 1-2 refinements for the best shadow effect.
2. 2

   Describe the intruder

   Type what you want: 'Add a dark figure standing in the hallway doorway' or 'Add someone lurking behind the door, barely visible.' Describe how much of the figure is visible and how shadowy they should be.

   Tip: Less is more for intruder pranks. 'A shadowy figure partially hidden behind the door frame' is scarier than a fully visible person. Let the viewer's imagination do the rest.

   Copy one of these to get started:

   Classic doorway lurker Add a dark figure standing in the hallway doorway, partially in shadow, just their silhouette visible
