🛠️ Instructions:

1. Clean and Prep the Dollhouse

• Wipe the house clean to remove dust.

• Remove any existing furniture, stickers, or accessories you don’t want to keep.

• Lightly sand glossy surfaces if needed to help paint stick.
  
  

2. Paint the Exterior

• Spray or paint the outside black, gray, or dark purple for a spooky look.

• Let it dry completely.

• Dry-brush with Acrylic Paint I added white, metallic silver browns and grays for a distressed, aged effect.
  
  

3. Paint the Interior Rooms

• Paint each room with dark or eerie colors (deep red, black, purple, etc.).

• You can use scrapbook paper or print haunted wallpaper designs to glue onto the walls.

• Consider making each room have a theme (e.g., spooky nursery, creepy kitchen, ghostly attic).
  
  

4. Add Haunted Decor

• Glue mini skeletons, ghosts, or rats in rooms.

• Stretch fake cobwebs across windows, corners, and furniture.

• Place tombstones in front or in a mini “graveyard” yard setup.

• Use moss, twigs, and dirt for a decrepit look.
  
  

5. Make Haunted Portraits

• Print tiny creepy portraits or Victorian-style photos and glue them on the walls.

• Use a red marker to add “bloody” effects or make the eyes glow with glow-in-the-dark paint.
  
  

6. Create Broken Windows & Doors

• Break or remove windowpanes to give a run-down look.

• Add wooden boards (made from craft sticks) crisscrossed over doors and windows.
  
  

7. Lighting Magic

• Add battery-powered tea lights or fairy lights for an eerie glow.

• Hide battery packs in the attic or under the house.
  
  

8. Finishing Touches

• Add a “Keep Out” or “Beware” sign near the front.

• Scatter bones, potion bottles, or tiny spell books.

• Add a fog effect with cotton batting or dry ice (for display during parties).
