If you want a DIY corner bookmark that is ready to take a bite out of your book, this Vampire corner bookmark is certainly one to make.
What I love the most about these bookmarks, besides how fun they are, is that it’s a creative project that also encourages reading. Who wouldn’t want to use an awesome-looking bookmark right away? It’s one of the most fun Halloween crafts you can make with kids (pair it with a bat corner bookmark for maximum fun!).
These Halloween corner bookmarks will be a wonderful activity at your Halloween party, and they also make a great party favor.
Plus, as there are a ton of ways you can decorate them, kids will be thrilled to make more and more!
With Halloween just around the corner (no pun intended), a spooky design was in order – we made a cool bat bookmark design and a cat bookmark a while ago, and a vampire (or Count Dracula) is ready to join the ranks.
As for Halloween corner bookmarks, this one might be our favorite (for now).
These are easy enough for most kindergarteners to make (depending on their fine motor skills), so they can make a great classroom project (older kids will manage without any issues), or will be a fun gift for teachers to give to their students (and vice versa).
As they are super quick to make, they can also be a frugal party favor at your Halloween party for kids and kids at heart.

How to Fold a Vampire Corner Bookmark

a square sheet of paper (or origami paper) in vampire-worthy colors – pale pink, purple, gray, blue, gray-green or any other fitting color
sheet of black paper
a sheet of white paper
red paper
scissors
glue

Time to take a bite at this one!
Follow Step by Step Instructions or Watch the Video Tutorial
Take a sheet of origami paper or a regular sheet of paper. We used regular print paper and cut it into a square.
Fold the square sheet of paper in half, making a triangle.
Next, fold one layer of the triangle from top to bottom (grab hold at the top of the triangle and fold it towards the bottom center).
Fold the right corner to the center of the triangle.
Do the same with the left one.
Unfold both.
Now fold the two corners towards the top.
You will get a square / diamond shape.
All there is left to do is to tuck those two corners into the pocket that has formed when you folded them towards the top.
Let’s Decorate the Vampire Bookmark
Now comes the time to transform this regular looking corner bookmark into a vampire corner bookmark.
Cut off a corner out of a sheet of black paper.
Cut a “Vampire hairline”.
And glue it on the top of your Halloween corner bookmark.
Fold the sheet of black paper in half, and with a pencil draw the Vampire wings.
Cut the wings out.
Glue the wings on the back of your dracula bookmark.
Glue on eyes.
Cut a square out of red paper (it needs to be smaller than the bookmark), apply glue, and stick it inside the bookmark.
Cut two fangs and glue them inside the bookmark.
There! You have made a fierce-looking vampire corner bookmark.
