Haunted House Pumpkin Stencil

Two stacked haunted house facades make up this easy pumpkin stencil: an upper story with a steep peaked roofline and a tall arched window topped by a smaller rectangular pane, then a lower story with its own peaked roof, a grid window, and a rounded arch doorway, all sitting on a narrow uneven ground strip. The cut sections are the rooflines, windows, door, and ground strip, while solid pumpkin bridges between them keep the tiers separate. Cut the smallest window panes first so the surrounding structure stays rigid while the larger roofline panels are removed.

Haunted Church Pumpkin Stencil

A tall, narrow haunted church or castle rises in this pumpkin stencil, with a central spire topped by a cross, two flanking branch-like towers each capped with crosses, arched windows, and square window panels scattered across the facade. The entire structure is cut out as a series of interconnected shapes against the solid pumpkin face. Carve the small window squares and the tiny cross tops first, working top to bottom, so the tall thin towers stay structurally sound until the end.

Haunted Mansion Pumpkin Stencil

Haunted Mansion Pumpkin Stencil

A tall narrow haunted mansion rises up this pumpkin stencil as a stacked tower: a pointed triangular roof at the top, a rectangular belfry below, then three descending tiers of arched window pairs that grow progressively wider, finishing with a rounded arched doorway and grass tufts at the base. All windows and the door arch are cut through, leaving orange wall between each tier as structural separators. Cut the door arch at the bottom first to relieve pumpkin tension, then work upward tier by tier so the cuts above don't flex the completed windows below.
