Invite your friends over for a spooky Halloween craft session with these DIY wood haunted houses! Paint them in glittery black, green, and orange and decorate them with bendable zombies, eyeball stickers, plastic spiders and other fun embellishments to create an entire Halloween town! The houses come in a pack of 12 so there are plenty for kids and their friends to work on together.
Start by painting the wood haunted houses with craft paint. We painted some of the houses with black acrylic paint and others with glitter paint in Halloween colors such as orange, green, and purple. You can also layer the glitter paint over the black paint for a cool effect. Let dry completely.
Use colorful cardstock or paper to cut out windows and doors. Add to your houses with a glue stick.
Have fun making your houses extra spooky by adding embellishments such as Halloween stickers,eyeballs, zombie bendables, other Halloween character bendables and plastic spiders. Older kids or an adult can adhere the bendables to the houses with a dab of hot glue.
Once you are done decorating your house, slot it into the stand. We painted our stands black. You can use a bead of hot glue along the bottom of the house to help secure it to the base if needed.
Create an entire haunted village with your houses. Place more bendables, spiders, and stretchable spider web around your houses to create a spooky Halloween scene!
