Layer Style and text

First I drag the shadow layer below the text layer Halloween.
Then I give it a more appropriate name, that is shadow.

In this example I’m placing the backlight on our text with our pumpkin.
First select the layer with the text.
We click the fx button at the bottom of the “Layers” palette.
Choose “Bevel and Emboss”.
If we choose style “Outer Bevel”.
Technique: Smooth
Depth: 110%
Direction: Down
Size: 4 pixels
Soften: 0
In the Shading section, I go for an Angle of 90 degrees.
Altitude of a 48.
The contour, I leave it as it is.
Likewise the “Highlight mode” too.
And I place the Shadow mode as “Lighten” with an “opacity” of 100%.
You can of course change these settings to your needs.
