THE GHOST HOUSE –

 ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS  page 9.

Next we’ll add the fence. Cut out the LEFT FENCE on Page 17. Fold the two end 
tabs DOWNWARD and then fold DOWNWARD along the blue line between the 
two fence panels. Glue the two fence panels together. The outside panel is the one 
with brick along the bottom and the inside panel is the one without brick along the 
bottom. Place glue on the unprinted rectangle under the inside fence panel. 
Position the FENCE piece against the gray panel on the left side of the lawn (as 
shown in Figure 26) and glue in place.

Cut out the RIGHT FENCE on Page 17 and assemble it in the same way as we did 
the LEFT FENCE. Glue the RIGHT FENCE to the gray panel on the right side of 
the lawn.

Now cut out the BACK FENCE on Page 18. Fold DOWNWARD along the blue line 
between the two fence panels (but don’t glue them together yet). Once again, the 
outside panel is the one with brick along the bottom and the inside panel is the one 
without brick at the bottom. Fold the two sides together and put glue on the 
unprinted rectangle below the inside panel. Then UNFOLD the piece and glue the 
outside panel to the back of the lawn as shown in Figure 27. The brick tabs on the 
LEFT FENCE and RIGHT FENCE should be glued to the unprinted side of the 
outside panel. Fold the inside panel down over the tabs and glue the inside panel 
to the outside panel, as shown in Figure 28.

To complete the fence, cut out the FRONT FENCE on Page 18 and fold 
DOWNWARD along the blue lines between the fence panels (but don’t glue the 
fence panels together yet). Cut along the red line to separate the two gates and 
then cut along the red line at the bottom of the gates to separate them from the 
brick. Fold the gates DOWNWARD. Cut out the two INSIDE GATE PANELS on 
Page 18 and glue them to the unprinted sides of the gates. Trim if needed.
Now fold the fence panels together and place glue on the unprinted area below the 
inside fence panels. UNFOLD the piece and glue it to the gray area on the front of 
the lawn. Fold the inside fence panels down over the tabs and glue the fence 
panels together. The front fence should now resemble Figure 29, with the gates 
swung inward slightly.

You may now add the house to the lawn by placing it over the storage box. Again, 
if the box is too snug just collapse the sides a little.
