How to Draw: Spooky Stuff For Halloween

How to Draw: Spooky Stuff For Halloween is an art activity for children who want to construct spooky oddballs themselves, using a sequence of six drawing stages.

The activity experience

Strange Halloween subjects give a child space to make something eerie, comic, or a mixture of both. The How to Draw format is intended for ages 5 and up, with the character built in stages and a dedicated drawing page for practice.

The activity has a clear first task—make the pencil picture—and an optional second one: decorate the finished work. Color can give the drawing a new mood, while a setting or small added object can extend the idea. Invent a harmless job for a spooky character, such as running a pumpkin shop.

This is a good format to consider when a child asks how spooky oddballs are made rather than simply wanting an outline to color. The steps provide a route into the drawing, and the completed character can become the beginning of a larger art project.
