When it comes to Halloween parties, everyone - from kids to adults - wants to have fun. Whether you decide to create a horrifying haunted house or a more laid-back murder mystery dinner party, you need the right entertainment, food, and decorations to set the stage. Follow this guide to inspire you to create a truly perfect and petrifying party.
Ghoulish Games
You’re never too old to have some frightful fun with Halloween party games. Even if you’re not used to games at any other holiday party, Halloween is the perfect time to put on a mask, let loose, and try to pin a bone on a skeleton. Or, you could try the classic Bobbing for Apples game that’s great for monsters of any age. If you’re having an adults-only game, change it to Bobbing for Apple-Flavored Vodka. Replace apples with nips of your favorite apple-flavored vodka. If you love DIY projects, make this Witch Pitch game that’s fun for kids and adults with a foam board cut into the shape of a witch’s hat, miniature plastic cauldrons, and candy corn. For those living in warmer climates, Pumpkin Bocce is a popular game to play outside on your lawn.
Creepy Cuisine
No Halloween party is complete without frightening food to keep your ghosts and ghouls happy. This is the perfect chance to show off your creative side by making frightening fruit or whole wheat witch fingers. The possibilities are endless when it comes to frightfully fine dining for your Halloween party. You can even sneak in some horrifyingly healthy snacks! For a truly unique and terrifying spin on the classic caramel apple, try this poison toffee apple instead. The shiny, black coating around these apples makes them dangerously appealing.
Deadly Decorations
To set the atmosphere for your Halloween party, you need the right decorations. From an elegant, black-and-white decor scheme to a more traditional black-and-orange setting, you need to give your home its own costume. For the guests who will become ghosts, opt for some scary scene-setting with these DIY foam boards for your windows and maybe a DIY headstone or two for your front yard. If you’re having a party for the little goblins, check out these fun and cute kid-friendly Halloween decorations. Decorating your home for your Halloween party is fun and exciting. Just make sure you don’t become one of the decorations!
