A Haunted House Dollhouse. I did not even know such a thing existed until I happened upon Greenleaf Dollhouses where they feature this Haunted House Dollhouse you can buy and spook it up to your delight. Let your imagination run wild. Craft sticks for the scary fence were used along with scary furniture.

Then, I found a Haunted House Dollhouse on Etsy that shows to be sold, but here is a spooktacular look at it for fun.

The Haunted Dollhouse above is an old pink dollhouse spray painted black! I like this idea best. Take any old dollhouse and transform it into a haunted house for ghoulish fun.

Another great example of a dollhouse turned haunted house.
But then I read about Jenny Lawson, The Bloggess, who has been building a haunted dollhouse for 11 years or so, where she has filled the house with many items referring to scary books and movies, and also fantasy items like a fairy or ruby red slippers from the Wizard of Oz. This is “an attic holding imps and forgotten pieces. A dragon has a singing lesson, as Hedwig and the thing in the mirror look on.”
“Things on the table…a gun with silver bullets, two crucifixes, wolfsbane, a hand-mirror for spotting vampires, Ichabod Crane’s glasses and assorted potions.”
I vote her Best Haunted House Dollhouse award. To see more of Jenny Lawson’s haunted house click Kirtsy.com for a slide show, and her haunted house dollhouse was also featured on HGTV.
Have a Booriffic week.

Sue, I just love all the tiny accent pieces on the table — especially the looking glass! This must have been fun to research.

@Doll in the LookingGlass I look forward to your comments Debra, they are always so eloquent.
My dollhouse was far and away my favorite toy when I was growing up. These are pretty amazing! I’m not a big fan of Halloween, but I could see where making one of these would be pretty entertaining.
@sharongreenthal Hi Sharon – I have a lot of good memories playing with dollhouses too.
That’s awesome!!!! I want to get one of those for my kids! You know what else would be funny? A “repo” dollhouse! (like a totally wrecked dollhouse!)
@House Crazy Sarah A Repo dollhouse that is totally wrecked, now that would be great to make Sarah, and kinda scary too.
