Papercraft Difficulty:
Category : , ,

This is another ghost house papercraft made by Ray Keim scaled at 1/66. This model is based of a psychological thriller film directed by Alfred Hitchcock and starring Janet Leigh and Anthony Perkins.

As one of the classic horror stories, it follows Marion Crane, who, after stealing a large sum of money, winds up at the secluded Bates Motel.

The place is run by Norman Bates, a seemingly mild-mannered young guy with a really deep connection to his mother. But at what cost? At first, nothing seems too sinister, but you can definitely feel the creepiness somehow.


Further enhancing the suspense, The Bates house, sitting ominously on a hill above the motel, is an iconic image in horror movies. It’s designed in a Gothic Revival style.

Having it styled in Gothic architecture and dimly lit interiors really add to the suspenseful and creepy vibe.

The house scaled at 1/65 and requires 9 sheets of paper. Assembling is not hard but not easy either. Guide is included . A good material for Halloween isn’t it?
