Haunted House Coloring Page
Kids · 5–8A crooked little haunted house on a hill under a full moon, with a pointed roof, a chimney, a round attic window, two square windows and an arched front door, while two bats flap past the moon. With roof, walls, door, windows, moon and ground all separate, this is the page with the most to plan — which parts are dark, and which windows glow? It is spooky in the storybook sense only, and makes a good prompt for inventing who (or what) lives inside. Best for ages five and up. Print it on A4 or US Letter, or color it online with tap-to-fill.
A page to plan before starting
A roof, walls, a chimney, an arched door, two square windows, a round attic window, a hill, a moon and two bats in the sky: this is the busiest page in the Halloween set. It rewards a child who stops to decide first — which parts are dark, which are light, and which windows are glowing because somebody is home.
The windows are the detail to point out. Coloured yellow against a dark house and a dark sky, they are what make the picture feel like night, and children who discover that often go back and do the same with the moon.
Who lives there?
Haunted here means storybook haunted: there is nothing frightening on the page, just a house at night. Ask who lives inside — a friendly ghost, a family of bats, a very old cat — and let the answer decide the colours. Writing a sentence or two about it underneath turns the page into a short story, which is a gentle bit of literacy practice for five- to eight-year-olds.
