"The Hollow House" is a Halloween haunted-house invitation poster in a dark gothic style. Distressed red condensed lettering sits above an illustrated Victorian mansion with glowing windows, bare trees, an iron fence, bats and a full moon, with the event details stacked in pale type below. Swap in your own house name, date, address and notes to remake it for your own event.
Create a finished 3:4 Halloween invitation designed for a 5 × 7 inch printed card and phone viewing. Render only the following exact copy, with no extra words, dates, contact details, or lettering: “BACKYARD HAUNTED HOUSE · OPEN NIGHT” “THE HOLLOW HOUSE” “NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART” “OCTOBER 31 · 6–9 PM” “42 BIRCH LANE” “AGES 12+” “FREE ENTRY · DONATIONS BENEFIT THE FOOD BANK” “WALK-INS WELCOME · NO RSVP REQUIRED” Make “THE HOLLOW HOUSE” the dominant headline: custom tall, narrow gothic serif capitals with sharp wedge serifs, tightly spaced forms, irregular chipped edges and restrained dark red-orange enamel highlights. Keep every letter unmistakable and readable at thumbnail size; no drips that obscure the words. Set the warning as a bold secondary line. Use clean, high-contrast, condensed sans-serif capitals for the practical details, each on its own line and large enough to remain legible in print. Build a vertically stacked invitation: small eyebrow at the top; headline immediately below; warning beneath it; a detailed haunted house as the central image; then a clearly separated, centered details block in the lower portion. Keep all text and key artwork within an 8% safe margin. The house is a substantial illustrated subject, not a lettering backdrop: an isolated, crooked Victorian house with steep rooflines, narrow black windows, a partly open front door, bare trees and a low iron fence. Frame it with tangled branches and a few small bats, leaving the details block unobstructed. Use a genuinely frightening, non-gory horror register: near-black ink, smoke-darkened parchment, burnt orange and small sickly green window glows. Render the house as a finely crosshatched vintage horror engraving with rough paper grain, deep black shadows and thin moonlit edge highlights. Subtle ground fog stays behind the house and away from the copy. Strong contrast, crisp print-ready edges, controlled distressed texture, dramatic chiaroscuro. No blood, gore, cute cartoons, extra props covering text, mockup, border text, or watermark.
