10 Crafty Ideas to do with Haunted House Coloring Pages

All kids, no matter what age, love to color scary haunted houses.

Here are 10 easy, fun, and creative crafts you can make with a coloring page that you’ve already colored.

1. A Well-known Haunted House

For this fun and interesting craft, start by using one of my haunted house coloring pages, then color the spooky house and cut the windows on three sides so they can “open.”

Next, mount the spooky house page to a yellow piece of construction paper by putting a thin line of glue on each of its four sides.

The house looks lit up when the window tabs are pulled back.

After that, the kids can have fun making a real spooky house by drawing faces and ghostly shapes in the holes.

2. Spooky Witch Hat Lantern

Have the kids color and decorate a downloadable witch hat design to start. They can add stars, spiders, or anything else scary they choose.

After coloring it, roll it up into a cone form and tape or glue the edges together to keep it in place.

Then, put a small tea light that runs on batteries under it and wrap black tissue paper around the base, letting it hang down like a shadow.

The witch hat glows softly when the lights are turned down, making a creepy little lantern that’s great for Halloween night!

3. Art With Haunted Feelings

To make cute decorations for your desk, take some stiff poster board and roll it into a cylinder shape so it can stand up straight.

Next, make a cone-shaped roof out of orange construction paper.

After cutting out the doors and windows from the scary house coloring page, laminate the construction.

Put yellow tissue paper inside the cardboard to make it look like the house is lit up, and stick a cotton ball ghost in the doorway!

4. Creepy Crawly Spider Web Plate

As a base for their scary web, give each kid a black paper plate. They can make a spider web design on the plate with a white crayon or a silver marker.

Now have them glue white yarn along the web lines to make them look more interesting.

Have them create spiders using black pom-poms for the bodies and pipe cleaners for the legs, then glue them onto the web to complete the scene.

Whether you choose to hang them on the door or the wall, the final webs are creepy, crawly, and completely ready for Halloween!

5. Organizer for Haunted House

To begin this fun project, cut a black poster board into a long strip and shape it into a disk. Next, choose one of your favorite haunted house coloring pages, color it in, and carefully cut it out.

You should add cardboard to the spooky house to make it stronger, and then glue the bottom piece to the back of the cardboard circle.

To give the circle a “floor,” put the building on top of a square piece of cardboard.

You can separate the circle into three sections using three pieces of cardboard. These parts can be used to store crayons, paper clips, rubber bands, or any other small things.

6. Hanging Bat Silhouettes

Kids begin this fun Halloween craft by drawing bats on black construction paper.

Then they need to cut out each bat shape very carefully. A little hole is cut out near the top of each bat’s head so that a string or yarn loop can go through it.

After that, use a piece of string to build a clothesline and hang each bat from it by clipping or tying it to a window or aperture.

The bats hanging down and twisting in the wind make the perfect, frightening silhouette backdrop for Halloween decorations. It’s both simple and scary.

7. A Scary Spiral with Ghosts

When the craft is complete, glue the haunted house to a poster board and add three or four pieces of paper on top, each with an oval cut out of it.

Along the way to the posterboard base, the ovals should decrease in size, with a layer of cotton balls placed between each piece of paper.

Once the scary spiral with the haunted house in the middle is finished, bats, ghosts, or a creepy moon can be added to the 3D frame around it.

8. Ghostly Paper Plate Mask

Give each child a white paper plate and several examples of ghost faces to get them started.

Let kids draw spooky or hilarious ghost faces with black markers or crayons. Then, help them cut out eye holes so they can see through the mask.

Next, glue a straw or craft stick to the bottom of the plate to create a handle for holding the mask.

Kids can float around and pretend to be friendly ghosts for Halloween parades or just for fun at home.

9. Collage in the Classroom

As a fun activity for the school, you can make a huge spider web by zigzagging black yarn back and forth across a large piece of webril or cotton batting.

Tell the kids to color, cut out, and decorate their haunted house coloring pages however they want.

Then, for a show-stopping classroom decoration, have every student attach their haunted house to the “web” using simple, white craft glue or rubber cement.

10. Sneaky Pumpkin Faces

Give the kids orange construction paper and tell them to design and cut out giant pumpkin shapes.

Then, they can cut three-sided flaps into the pumpkin that open like doors and look like eyes or mouths.

Add a second piece of black paper to the back of each flap. Kids can make funny, scary, or dumb faces on this paper that show through when the flap is opened.

These little pumpkins are perfect for a Halloween show with lots of surprises!
