/EINPresswire.com/ -- CLEVELAND, OH--(Marketwired - October 26, 2016) - According to the Greeting Card Association, consumers exchange approximately 21 million Halloween cards each year, and, while many people love a terrifying trick, the supremely-scary stuff isn't for everyone. If bloodcurdling screams, apparitions of the afterlife, and ghastly goblins aren't your favorite parts of Halloween, then brand-new Fun House™ cards from American Greetings are the perfect way to send creepy-cute wishes.

If the house is rockin', it must be Fun House! These innovative new cards are their own little house party, featuring a unique, displayable pop-up design, music, lights and motion. As each card pops up to form a house-like shape, the doors swing inward to reveal an iconic character that sings and dances to an upbeat song as lights flash in-time to the beat. Ready to make a big impact with their jumbo size, bright illustrations and playful messages, Fun House will be the talk of the neighborhood. Designs in this exciting collection include a "ghostly gables" haunted house, Frankenstein's spook-tastic laboratory, and a crypt complete with snacking zombie.

"The new line of Fun House cards has the perfect mix of silly spookiness and lighthearted wishes," said Carol Miller, vice president of corporate innovation at American Greetings. "Recipients will certainly enjoy these cards year after year because they are an amusing gift that can easily double as a Halloween decoration."
