If you want to draw a haunted house but don’t know where to start, you can do what I did, and go through a few YouTube drawing tutorials. For me, haunted houses don’t usually have a specific visual description. But in order to make them look haunted in your artworks, you need to come up with a way to give the houses an eerie, and spooky vibe.
To draw a haunted house, you first need to draw a regular looking house, and then add necessary elements to it so that it can have that eerie and spooky look. You can do so by placing dead trees, tombstones, or even draw ghosts that can be seen through the house’s windows.
In this video tutorial, the instructor will demonstrate a simple process of drawing a haunted house. This drawing has been specifically made for kids, and is quite easy to follow. The steps are very simple, and kids can start off with an ordinary drawing of a house, and then add necessary elements to it in order to make it look haunted.

This realistic looking haunted house is drawn with pencil, but if you want, you can use pen and ink as well. The idea behind this drawing is that instead of adding horror elements in the drawing, you simply make the house look old and broken, which is equally helpful in making the house look haunted. All in all, the drawing is great, and the tutorial is very easy to follow. But, you do need a bit of experience in pencil sketching before you can start working on this.

Instead of doing a haunted house, you could also try to draw something that has a Halloween theme to it, like the drawing we see in this video. It’s mainly for kids, and is basically a house that has Halloween decorations on it. It’s very easy to work on, and also quite enjoyable, if you ask me.

The haunted house in this drawing tutorial is quite aesthetic in an eerie way. It’s very well drawn, and the sketch has been done quite neatly as well. The details in this drawing can be noticed even from a distance. You need to put in a lot of effort if you want to replicate this artwork. I recommend you follow the tutorial, and take notes while you do so. But don’t watch and draw at the same time for this artwork. Otherwise, you might make a mess out of it, something I ended up doing the first time I tried working on this sketch.
