👻 Learn How to Fold an Origami Spider, Bat, and Ghost


Origami Unfold

Hi Reader,

Halloween is here, bringing all things spooky, and we’ve got some fun origami projects for you! Whether you want a quick and easy fold like a cat face or bat, or feel ready to tackle a more challenging ghost or spider, there’s something for everyone to enjoy this season.

And while Halloween in Japan is more of a commercial holiday, the country has a fascinating history of ghostly legends. For a glimpse into Japan’s spooky side, check out stories of yokai (supernatural entities) on Yokai.com.

Happy folding and happy Halloween!
