Halloween Party Games

Halloween Party Ideas with fun Halloween games to play during the party.  Print the “Halloween Party Teams” sheet to record the names of the players in each team.  Teams will be recorded as the “Witch Team” or “Mummy Team”.  Use these teams to play a variety of group games such as the “Mummy game”, “Spider game” and “Ghost Bowling”.  One game that is fun for all is the “Mummy Game”.

Mummy Game

The Mummy Game consists of each group racing to be first to have a mummy wrapped in toilet paper by the other members of the group.  Choose one member or a stuffed toy to be wrapped.  Each team starts of with a roll of toilet paper.  Before the game begins, each team picks a mummy (one that will get all wrapped up) . When the host says begin, each team using all players will have to carefully wrap the mummy from head to toe or toe to head with the toilet paper.  The team that finishes first is the winner.  The rule of the game is that the group cannot break the toilet paper from the roll before completing.  If they do so, they will have to start over.  The game can be repeated by allowing each team member to be the mummy (you may want to purchase cheap toilet paper!).

Best Costume Game

The Best Costume Game has each guest fill out a Best Costume Ballot to vote on best costume for “Scariest Costume”, “Funniest Costume”, and “Best Costume” categories.  Kids write down one player in each box that they think has the best costume for each category.  Ballots are place in a box or bowl when completed by each player.  When all ballots are completed the host records the ballots on the “Best Costume Winners” poster.  The players with the most votes are recorded.  Afterwards, the host can hand out “Best Costume Certificates” for each of the categories to the winners.  Tape candy to each of the certificates to make them extra special.

Ghost Bowling Game

For the Ghost Bowling Game, add round large eyes and a mouth using a black marker on toilet paper rolls and line up as you would bowling balls.  Use a soft ball or small pumpkin for the kids to take turn knocking them down.   Place kids in groups to see how many tries it takes for each group to knock down all the toilet paper rolls.  Each group member should have a turn to knock down the bowling paper rolls.

Spider Game

Play the Spider Game by using 2 different colored strings (yarn) with everyone in a circle, use colors such as black and orange if available.  Each team passes their string to each teammate to see who runs out of string first.  What a web they will weave!

Halloween Party Decorations

Our Halloween Party ideas would not be complete without Halloween Decorations and Props.  Decorate the house this year with homemade Halloween decorations.  Pin up a Halloween Banner with each letter of the word “Halloween”.  String them together with black or orange ribbon (colors should be available around Halloween) or plain string (fishing line works well too).  Use these fun Halloween characters shaped as circles to stream around the house.  Punch holes and use string or fishing line to stream and hang up around the house.  Add Halloween labels to water bottles with our Halloween Water Bottle Labels.  Choose from “I’m Watching You” with scary eyes or “A Special Drink for You” with a spooky spider.  Hand out the Halloween Party Thank You Candy Bar Wrappers to thank the guests for coming.  Just wrap up a large chocolate candy bar with the Halloween candy bar wrapper and trip where needed.
