The Among Us ghost is what a crewmate becomes after being eliminated in the game — a transparent, floating version of the bean-shaped crewmate with a little wispy tail instead of legs. It's a fun, slightly spooky variation that's very easy to draw. Parikshet shows you how step by step.

🖍️ What You Need

  • Pencil and eraser
  • Any colour marker (lightly, for the see-through body)
  • Light blue for the visor
  • Black pen for a thin outline
  • White for highlights

How to Draw an Among Us Ghost Step by Step

  1. Draw the crewmate head and body — start with the classic Among Us shape: a rounded dome top and a rounded body, but slightly more elongated and wispy than a normal crewmate.
  2. Add the backpack — the small rounded rectangle on the back, just like a normal crewmate.
  3. Draw the visor — the signature D-shaped light-blue visor on the upper front, with white highlight reflections.
  4. Replace the legs with a wispy tail — instead of two stubby legs, draw the bottom of the body trailing off into a wispy, wavy ghost tail (like a flame or a wisp of smoke).
  5. Add the floating arms — the stubby arms can float out slightly to the sides, as if drifting.
  6. Make it look transparent — colour the body very lightly or leave it mostly white, with just a faint tint, to show the ghost is see-through.
  7. Add a gentle glow or highlights — a few white highlights or a soft outline suggest the ghostly, glowing quality.
  8. Final touches — the ghost can be any crewmate colour, just very pale and transparent.
💡 Parikshet's Tip: The trick to turning a crewmate into a ghost is two changes: replace the two stubby legs with a single wispy, wavy tail (like a wisp of smoke), and make the whole body pale and transparent instead of solid. Keep the visor and backpack the same so it's still clearly a crewmate.

🌟 Did You Know?

In Among Us, when a crewmate is eliminated they become a ghost — but the game isn't over for them! Ghosts can still float around, pass through walls, and finish their tasks to help their team win. Only other ghosts can see them. This clever mechanic means players stay involved even after being 'caught', which is one reason the game became so popular and replayable.

Crewmate vs Ghost: What Changes

  • Legs → wispy tail — the ghost trails off instead of having legs
  • Solid → transparent — pale, see-through body
  • Grounded → floating — arms drift, body hovers
  • Same visor and backpack — still clearly a crewmate

🎯 Try This: Draw a Crewmate and Its Ghost

  1. Draw a normal solid crewmate on one side.
  2. Draw its ghost version beside it — same colour but pale, transparent, with a wispy tail.
  3. Show the ghost floating slightly above the ground.
  4. Add a task station the ghost is still trying to complete!
