What should i do for my Halloween themed birthday party?

Post by Wilton19 » Sun Oct 25, 2009 1:25 am

I'm having a Halloween themed birthday party next weekend, and i have no idea what to do. There's going to be a lot of treats, a pinata, and painting a pumpkin..What are some games and fun Halloween related things to do? Everyone is going to wear there costumes, too.

Hey Wilton, I don't see alcohol or hookers on your list of things at your party. Either you're very young or very boring. Which is it?

By the way, I love the pinata idea! :D

Good, they're wearing there costumes, instead of elsewhere costumes.

I'd suggest naked wesson oil twister, but, as Shambala suggest, perhaps you're to young, or, that'd be to "edgy"?.........

Im guessing the 19 behind Mr. Wilton's name is his age.
Names pinemom, but my friends call me "Piney".

You guys got interesting ideas. LOL.

The guests do need to come in their costumes but nothing was said about keeping them on - so the naked twister thing suggestion is not out of the question. :-D

Could be his birth order.

Hm. Bobbing for apples. Does anyone do this anymore? Did anyone ever?

There's always the icebreaker thing where you put names of famous people on your guests' backs and they have to ask yes or no questions to find out who they are.

Or you can do some sort of scavenger hunt.

Google Martha Stewart and Halloween. Drinks, snacks, costumes, games.

For punch ice , pour some juice into unpowdered surgical gloves. Freeze and put ice hands in punch bowl. Or put ice fingers into cocktails. Jello mold in shape of brain.

Pin the dick on Frankenstein. Strip poker. Punch pong. Switch costumes.

Check out discount and thrift stores for old costumes and decorations. Spooky music and movies . Donations for UNICEF. Costume parade in the neighborhood. Mob a starbucks. Throw a zombie party, teach everyone the "Thriller" dance...OK, that should get your creative juices flowing.
