Halloween Haunted House Kids’ Activity
What You'll Find on This Page
We have used this printable in two ways. I actually created it to cut out with a cricut machine, but if you are patient you can use scissors or an X-acto knife to cut it out instead.
Of course, you can still use this printable if you don’t want to spend a lot of time cutting! I printed it out earlier this month for my two younger girls to decorate. Here is four-year-old Anna’s picture:
And here is seven-year-old Lily’s drawing:
You can let kids add color using paint, crayons, colored pencils, markers, and Halloween stickers. However you choose to use it, this free haunted house printable makes a fun creative storytelling activity for kids!

The peek-a-boo idea with gluing the cut house onto a second sheet is clever, but cutting windows with scissors can be fiddly for younger kids. One tweak: print the house on cardstock and tape it to a cutting mat, then use a craft knife only on straight window edges while kids handle the larger outline. Also try a black backing sheet so the cut windows read as dark rooms, which makes the reveal clearer than plain white.
What a lovely idea — the peek-a-boo flap makes it so much more than a colouring sheet. My little ones love activities where they can tell a story as they open each window. I can see this working really well on a rainy afternoon when everyone needs a calm, creative project together.
So creative and cute! I love the ease of printing it off and it is ready to go. You could put it on cardstock and add in photos of friends and family to make it fun for real little ones too. Thank you!
Cute printable! I’m not ready for Halloween yet, are you? It’s on a Monday so I’m not sure if my kids want to trick or treat, especially the high schoolers. Halloween on a Friday or Saturday is the best!
There’s a super fun quilting book I got one time that’s Halloween-themed, it’s got all sorts of windows and doors you can open. I have yet to complete a single project in the book, but someday….
Oh my goodness, I love this! I’m definitely going to be using this when we do our Halloween activities. I’ll see what I can also do to match this printable with how we decorate our house door this year.

Love the flaps that open!
These are so sweet. I love things that go bump in the night.

I love it. My husband also loves creating things with our Silhouette, but he usually goes for the full 3D :)
I made a bunch of paper houses like your husband, but I also make a lot of 2D cards, and projects like this.

Love the flip-flaps! And your daughters did a terrific job decorating the 2D version.
