Spooky Haunted House Art Project for Kids

A spooky Halloween art project featuring ghosts, a haunted house, jack-o'-lanterns, and tombstones under a yellow moon.

I got the idea for this spooky haunted house picture from this picture I found online. For the background, we did a marker ink printing process using washable markers on plastic ziploc bags. I learned this technique from Lauralee Chambers who does it using tin foil. You simply color with washable markers on a plastic bag, spray with water and then press your paper on the bag and rub the back. I love the mysterious effect it has on these spooky pictures! The rest of the picture was done with construction paper cutouts.
