Corky Haunted Houses
The supplies needed for this project are cheap, basic, and easy to find.
I made these Haunted Houses with my elementary students. They LOVE making them. Even the older kids wanted to make the houses. It's a great project for kids but can be enjoyed at any age. It would make for a real fun, cheap, and easy family project.

I adapted this project from an old School Art Magazine.

  • Step 1

    Fold a 6” by 9” piece of colored construction paper in half for your roof. DO NOT glue roof on till the very end.

  • Step 2

    Using a sharpie add shingles to your roof. Use the sharpie to add bricks to your paper bag house.

  • Step 3

    Using a variety of colored papers cut out spooky Halloween themed characters and details for your house. You can add details with colored markers to your cutouts and house if desired.

  • Step 4

    Glue details in place. Glue sticks work best. You can decorate the sides and backs of house if you would like/if time permits.

  • Step 5

    Open up paper bag house.
    Crumple a piece of newspaper and stuff house (do not over stuff).
    Staple bag closed, glue on your roof. A little glue at the seam works best.
    Enjoy, your spooky and colorful Halloween creation!
