Step1.

Add HTML

<div class="halloween">
  <div class="ghost">
    <div class="eyes"></div>
    <div class="smile"></div>
    <div class="text">BOO!</div>
  </div>
</div>

Step2.

Add CSS

Set the colour and position of the background, and elements:

body {
  background-color: #333;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  height: 100vh; 
  overflow: hidden;
}

.halloween {
  position: relative;
}
.halloween:before {
  content:"";
  position: absolute;
  background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.1);
  width:140px;
  height:20px;
  border-radius:50%;
  top:250px;
}

Style the Ghost:

.ghost {
  position: relative;
  height:180px;
  width:140px;
  border-radius:100px 100px 0 0;
  background-color: #f7ede2;
  transition: .2s;
}

.ghost:before {
  content:"";
  position: absolute;
  width:20px;
  height:70px;
  border-radius:30px;
  background-color: #f7ede2;
  top:130px;
  box-shadow: 20px 40px #333,40px 10px #f7ede2,60px 40px #333,80px -10px #f7ede2,100px 40px #333, 120px 0 #f7ede2;
}

.ghost:after {
  content:"";
  position: absolute;
  border-radius:50%;
  width:40px;
  height:40px;
  background-color: #333;
  top:50px;
  left:33px;
  box-shadow:41px 0 #333;
}

.eyes {
  position: absolute;
  width:10px;
  height:10px;
  background-color: #f7ede2;
  border-radius:50%;
  top:70px;
  left:80px;
  z-index:1;
  box-shadow: -24px 0 #f7ede2; 
}

.eyes:before, .eyes:after {
  content:"";
  position: absolute;
  background-color: #f7ede2;
  width:20px;
  height:70px;
  border-radius:30px;
  top:0;
}

.eyes:before {
  transform: rotate(30deg);
  left:55px;
}

.eyes:after {
  transform: rotate(-30deg);
  left:-95px;
}
.smile {
  position: absolute;
  width:40px;
  height:20px;
  border-radius:0 0 100px 100px;
  background-color: #333;
  top:95px;
  left:53px;
  transition: .2s;
}

Style the text:

.text {
  position:relative;
  top:-100px;
  font-size: 100px;
  left:-40px;
  color: #f7ede2;
  display: none;
  transition: .2s ease;
}

Add a transition effect on hover:

.halloween:hover .smile {
  border-radius: 100px 100px 0 0;
  height:50px;
}

.halloween:hover .text {
  display: block;
}
