A Wicked Good Time with Unique Halloween Party Ideas for Everyone
With Casper as inspiration, a kids Halloween party with a neighborly ghoul theme has the right blend of tricks and treats. Ask the small ghosts to come dressed up, but you can also have them make scary masks as part of the festivities. Other halloween party ideas include spooky decor, terrifying snacks and a neighborly ghoul search. With friendly smiles instead of scary expressions, the ghosts on these Halloween celebration invites will have kids anxiously anticipating the celebration, not frightening them away.
Nothing sets the mood like frightful Halloween decorations. String up black paper bat garland. Cut out enormous question marks from dark paper and hang them up also. Use ink to create fingermarks onto clear acetate paper, cut out and attach to mirrors and windows around the home! Of course, no murder mystery would be complete without a couple of questionable “weapons” lying around. Leave out items like a wrench, toy dagger and mark and empty bottle, “POISON” to bring on the suspicion!Bake peanut butter cookies and chocolate cookies to give to your friends. Place the cookies in a clear cellophane bag, alternating the peanut butter cookies with the chocolate cookies to coordinate with the orange and black theme. Tie the bag closed with a pretty piece of orange or black ribbon.
Exchange the light bulbs in your house with orange colored light bulbs for the night. In one of the rooms, make it completely dark except for a small glow-in-the dark light so that you guests feel like they are in a haunted mansion.In the all black room, have a soundtrack of ghost cries and goblin noises playing in the background. You can find creepy Halloween soundtracks at your local music store or online. For an extra incentive, hide a fog machine behind your front door so that when your guests enter your house, they are instantly greeted with a frightful receiving!
