鬼脸天蛾属（学名：Acherontia)，亦称为人面天蛾、面形天蛾或是骷髅天蛾，是鳞翅目天蛾科的一属，主要特征是胸部背面有一明显的骷髅形纹。

幼虫有分成绿色或褐色，会以多种植物为食，长成成虫时大约有7~10天寿命。

鬼脸天蛾受到惊吓时，会发出叫声吓唬天敌。

鬼脸天蛾属昆虫因其奇异的外形而常常成为邪恶的象征，出现在文学和影视剧中。例如1991年美国电影《沉默的羔羊》中变态杀人狂“水牛比尔”家中饲养的就是鬼脸天蛾。

The name death's-head hawkmoth refers to any one of the three moth species of the genus Acherontia (Acherontia atropos, Acherontia styx and Acherontia lachesis). The former species is found primarily in Europe, the latter two are Asian; most uses of the common name refer to the European species. These moths are easily distinguishable by the vaguely human skull-shaped pattern of markings on the thorax. All three species are fairly similar in size, coloration, and life cycle.
