Halloween Party Ideas
Halloween party invitations
Get your guests grooved into the Halloween Party mood through invitations. You can make hand made invitations for your party. The invitations should have the Halloween party theme. One tip is to start the party late in the evening after dinner. This way you just serve finger foods and snacks. Estimate the number of guests and prepare the food and other supplies accordingly. A fun way to write the invitations is in a shaky hand. You can put some black plastic spiders in it. It is better to include email address, phone numbers so guests can contact you. Send the invites two weeks in advance.
Halloween Party Decorations
Since it is Halloween, you have to have a spooky setting. You can ask your guests to bring carved pumpkins. Make a pumpkin patch at a corner with a table and cover with brown sheet. You can tie green ribbons around the pumpkins. In the corners, hang black and orange balloons with black ribbons. On the ceilings and in corners, you can have hanging spider webs. Give it a spooky feel by placing large hairy spiders on the cobwebs. The tables can be decorated with black plastic table cloth. On this you can place pumpkin garlands and pumpkin cut-outs. The doorway can be decorated with spiders and cobwebs. Give a nice touch by placing black cutlery, orange napkins in a bat shaped napkin holder. You can have the room lit up in red or black light. The walls and ceilings can be decorated with glow-in-the-dark skeletons. The passageways can be decorated with glowing Halloween decoration. To set the mood, you can have Halloween music and place Halloween Place Cards on the table.
Halloween Party Decorations Games and Activities
You can organize various activities and games like a photo spot where you can take pictures of guests with a spooky background. Kids can make their photo frames from card stock. You can even have Halloween Lotto games with prizes like candy bars etc. Another fun activity would be a pumpkin contest where prizes could be given for the best looked carved pumpkin.
Halloween Party Food and Refreshments
Serve your guests dips and chips in black pots. You can also make Oreo cookie spiders. Try out a fruit punch bowl decorated with a floating ice hand. Make the ice hand by filling plastic gloves with water and freeze it. Also try out ghost sandwich and graveyard pudding.
