How to Haunt Your House brings new chapters flying, bubbling and crawling to the series in Book Four. There are Flying Phantasms, Mad Labs, Ten Foot Trees, and a variety of home spun spiders all wrapped in our new favorite spider web material using beef netting!

This fourth entry into the How to Haunt Your House series does an excellent job of continuing the tradition established by the first three volumes. In fact, I was particularly fond of some of the more advanced techniques presented in this book.
As usual, the real value of these books is not so much in the step by step instructions, but in the inspiration the reader can draw from reading the sketches of the plans. In this volume, I found a couple of ideas that very well might solve a problem I've been trying to resolve for my own haunt this year.
Be warned, however, that even more than the previous volumes, this is not particularly a book for beginners. While the authors do walk you through their process, you'll need to be comfortable with a variety of tools and techniques before you're comfortable tackling most of these projects.
Be warned, also, that while the previous books have presented a wider range of thematic elements, this book is overwhelmingly (but certainly not entirely) devoted to a a spider-themed haunt. Personally, I found that welcome, as I quite like the various spiders and spider-related builds, but if that's not the direction you want to go, the book will be of more limited utility for you.
Those caveats out of the way, though, regardless of your haunt's theme and regardless of your skill level, the book is worth reading if for no other reason than to enjoy the lovely photographs of the Mitchells' own projects.
