Spooky Window Ghosts

By Russ D. Edwards

If you are looking for an easy and fun Halloween craft for kids of all ages, why not make spooky window ghosts? They're incredibly fun to make and use items you can find around the house! Spooky window spooks make your home look fun and festive for the Halloween holiday and you can involve all the family in this great craft.

To make your spooky window ghosts, you'll need used dryer perfume sheets, a black pen, scissors, and some sticky tack or tape. Cut scary shapes out of the dryer sheets and draw easy faces on them. Make them all shapes and sizes, smiley and spooky! Use 2 miniscule pieces of sticky tack or tape, positioned over their eyes, to stick them onto windows or mirrors. They look especially effective and ethereal if the light comes in behind them. You can make your spooky window spooks little or big and hang them everywhere for a great Halloween effect!

you can also make some spooky window spooks out of white contact paper much the same way you made the ones above. Cut out spooky shapes for ghosts of different sizes and styles. Use an X-acto knife to cut out the ghost faces, and then stick them to your windows. Make many different spooks and decorate all your windows for a great spooky effect.

When making scary window ghosts, you don't have to always use material that will stick to the window itself. Here's a cute concept to make spooky window ghosts that you can just tape on. Take a white piece of paper and have your kid stand on it with their bare foot. Trace around the outside of the foot, not the toes! Then, cut out the figure. The heel will be the spooks head. Use a marker or crayons to draw on a ghostly face and cut out arms from white paper. Glue the arms to the sides and you have a fun ghost. Tape them to the window for a cute Halloween decoration.

you can also have spooky window spooks just by making a spook and then hanging them from your window so they can be seen outside. Make your spook out of tissue, a handkerchief, or any other material you can think about. The possibilities are unlimited, and they're limited only by your own imagination. Spooky window ghosts are fun methods to make your house inviting to trick or theaters or party goers.
