Amazon.com Review:
Create a charming country-style Halloween setting through your whole house, from the front yard and the entryway to the windows, mantelpiece, and table, with a little help from Haunt Your House for Halloween. More sweetly spooky than scary, the decorations feature lots of simple, painted wood cutouts (ghosties, pumpkiny characters, rabbits, cats, crows), easy wreaths (such as a circle of ghost-wrapped lollipops), and clever edibles (sloppy joes whose buns masquerade as pumpkins; ghoul-aid; chocolate scaredy-snacks). Full directions and patterns are given for each project, although the book's format occasionally makes finding the instructions for a particular project challenging: a series of photos illustrates a number of project tableaus, followed by the step-by-step instructions for those projects compressed together, then another series of photos, and so on. Everything is clearly pictured, though, and the directions do refer back to the illustration page, so this minor drawback shouldn't keep Halloween crafters from finding their way. --Amy Handy

"Haunt Your House for Halloween", despite its ominous title, isn't really geared towards the scary side of Halloween. The book presents mainly tame Halloween décor and on that level it works very well. You just have to know what you're getting. Author Cindy Fuller wastes no time with lengthy histories of Halloween myths and traditions...we've all read those time and time again. She jumps right into the many projects found in this 96 page book.

Being a Halloween aficionado, I find this book cute, and full of good for ideas for a mild Halloween, but "haunted" is not what I would call the decorations. I still can't understand why some of the pumpkins have jester hats. Personally, I would call this more fall country decor than anything, but very cute and good ideas all around.

I'm a serious Halloweenie. When I heard the title "Haunt Your House For Halloween: Decorating Tricks & Party Treats" the last thing I expected were cutsie country painted wood cutouts of pumkpin men (stacked 3 hight like snowmen), pigeon-looking blue crows, and BUNNIES with harlequin diamond painted ears. There were even oversided EGGS painted in yellow, orange, and white as if to be candy corn.
If you're a serious country crafter who wants to spend a lot of time cutting shapes out ... Read More

This book has a lot of ideas for decorating your house. The majority of the items are "country" style wood cutouts. They are cute but not what I thought would be in a book that is called "Haunt you house for Halloween"! The directions are thorough and easy to follow. The book has a lot of photographs of the actual finishes projects as well. The ideas are probably good for houses with little children who may scare easy or for people who like the painted wood decorations.
