Free Beetlejuice Coloring Pages: 20 printable PDF designs featuring classic solo portraits, mood and expression variants, movie scenes and elements, and character and cast scenes. Each page can be downloaded as a PDF to print or colored online in the browser.

Beetlejuice is the titular character of the 1988 film directed by Tim Burton, played by Michael Keaton as an eccentric “bio-exorcist” ghost hired to haunt the living occupants of a house. The film also stars Winona Ryder as Lydia Deetz, the goth teenage daughter of the new homeowners, and won the Academy Award for Best Makeup. A sequel, Beetlejuice, directed again by Tim Burton, was released in September 2024, bringing back Keaton and Ryder in their original roles. These are fan-made designs and are not affiliated with, licensed by, or endorsed by Tim Burton or Warner Bros.

This collection reflects that mix of spooky comedy and cast favorites across 20 pages: classic solo portraits, mood and expression variants, movie scenes and elements, and character and cast scenes. His black-and-white striped suit and wild green hair are the throughline across nearly every page.

What Is Inside This Collection

The 20 pages are broken into four groups based on content.

Classic Solo Portraits

Nine pages, the largest group in the set, show Beetlejuice as a solo figure in a fairly consistent style, distinguished mainly by pose and level of detail. Color suggestion: keep his black-and-white striped suit and green hair consistent across every portrait so the set reads as one character rather than several different designs.

Mood and Expression Variants

Five pages give Beetlejuice a distinct expression, including scary, happy, funny, and laughing versions. Color suggestion: let the mood guide the palette, brighter and more playful tones for the happy and funny pages, cooler and more shadowed tones for the scary variant.

Movie Scenes and Elements

Two pages reference specific elements from the film, including a movie poster design and the giant striped sandworm creature from the story’s Netherworld setting. Color suggestion: Use bold, contrasting stripes for the sandworm to match its memorable, larger-than-life design from the film.

Character and Cast Scenes

Four pages show Beetlejuice alongside Lydia Deetz or the wider cast of characters from the film. Color suggestion: give Lydia her signature dark, gothic color palette to contrast clearly against Beetlejuice’s brighter green-and-white look.

What Beetlejuice Coloring Pages Do

A fun, family-friendly take on a classic spooky character. Because Beetlejuice’s design leans into playful, cartoonish horror rather than anything genuinely frightening, these pages let kids enjoy a Halloween-adjacent character without the intensity of true horror content.

Fine motor practice with striped pattern detail. The American Academy of Pediatrics identifies fine motor skill development as a core benefit of structured coloring for children ages 2 through 7, and Beetlejuice’s signature striped suit gives repeated practice with even, consistent line spacing.

An outlet for fans of the film. For kids and adults who already enjoy the original film or its sequel, coloring offers a lower-intensity way to spend time with a favorite character’s design.

A calm, focused activity. Research published in the Art Therapy Journal in 2005 found that structured coloring sessions were associated with a measurable reduction in reported anxiety. Because these pages isolate character portraits rather than any scene from the film, the activity itself stays calm and low-pressure.

How to Color Beetlejuice Pages Well

  • Suit: Alternate Crayola Black and White for his signature striped suit, keeping the stripes evenly spaced across the whole design.
  • Hair: Use a bright Crayola Green for his wild, unkempt hairstyle, kept consistent across every page.
  • Skin: A pale, grayish tone like Crayola Timberwolf works well for his ghostly complexion.
  • Sandworm: Use bold Crayola Tan and Sepia stripes for the giant creature, giving it a rough, textured look distinct from Beetlejuice’s own smoother suit pattern.
  • Lydia Deetz: Keep her in dark, gothic tones, Crayola Black and Violet work well, to contrast clearly against Beetlejuice’s brighter colors on shared pages.
  • Mood variants: Cooler grays suit the scary version, while brighter greens and whites fit the happy and funny pages.
