SunsOut: Spooky House Shaped Puzzle

No straight edges anywhere, which removes the one strategy everybody has.

A shaped puzzle is cut to the outline of the thing it depicts rather than a rectangle, so the haunted house finishes as a haunted house. It also means the border trick - find the flat edges, build the frame, work inwards - simply does not exist here, and you have to start from the picture instead.

SunsOut print and cut in the United States and commission their artwork rather than licensing stock images, which is why their Halloween range has a consistent hand to it. Shaped puzzles are seasonal stock that people buy on sight, and this one has a fairly short window each year.

Perfect for: October, and anyone who thinks they have puzzles worked out.
