From the desk of the product designer:
Behind the design
“Halloween is one of our favorite holidays, so we had a frightfully good time designing this miniature haunted house! Even after we finished the basic design of the house — from the vellum windows to the LED lights — we spent countless more hours figuring out how to include added decorations that were as customizable as they were creepy. That way, every light-up haunted house out there can be totally unique!”

My grandchildren, ages 6 & 8 had a great time doing this project. They really liked making the hand drawn ghosts and all.

The battery did not attached properly; therefore, no lights. But the granddaughters loved putting togetherthe rest.
