Visit the town (also known as a web site) of RavensBlight. This place has been created by Ray O’Bannon. If you love Halloween and similar themes, this is the site for you. Stop by this unique site to find inspiration, paper toys and more dark goodies.
NOTE: This was supposed to be part of last year’s Halloween set, but I ran out of time. Instead, I’m adding it this year as part of paper crafts.

Look through the toys and try one or two . . . or even one of the large ones like the game boards, buildings, cemetery or ships.
