Little Vampire Curled Up With a Book by the Fire
Coloring guide
Here's a young vampire boy settled into a big cushioned armchair, legs crossed, with a large open book in front of him. He has slicked-back hair, pointy ears, small fangs and a cheerful smile, and he's dressed in a high-collared cape, a buttoned cravat, long trousers and slip-on shoes. A stone fireplace with a crackling fire and logs sits behind him, and a three-candle candelabra rests on the mantel. The round four-pane window shows a cratered full moon and two bats in flight. Next to the chair there's a small round table with one lit candle, and an oval rug covers the wood floor. Deep purples and midnight blues would look great on the cape and the night sky, with warm oranges and yellows saved for the fire and candlelight. It's a free printable that fits a quiet afternoon or a Halloween class activity. Browse more Vampire coloring pages, or explore Castle and Zombie for even more fun.

- 1Start with the stone walls, floor and fireplace: color the wall blocks light gray and the wooden floor wood brown, leaving the mortar lines and the moon area for later.
- 2Color the armchair and its arms brick red, then fill the vampire's cape bright red and its collar dark maroon, leaving the cape lining charcoal gray.
- 3Fill the face and hands with peach skin, keeping the eye whites, teeth and the shoe strap white, and color the hair and trousers charcoal gray.
- 4Color the open book steel blue, the fire orange and bright yellow, the candle peach skin with a pale yellow flame, and the window pane deep blue with the moon pale yellow.
- 5Optional: add darker shading on the cape, chair and walls with a slightly darker tone of the same color for a little more depth.
