This Halloween Spooky House is a playful miniature build that captures the spirit of Halloween with handcrafted charm. Designed by Abhishek of Crafted Small, the house features jagged rooftops, cut-out windows, and spooky silhouettes made from black and orange paper. The structure is built from cardboard, layered to create depth and dimension, and decorated with cobwebs, ghosts, and bats.
