To all those naysayers out there who aren’t excited about Halloween this year because it falls midweek, we say “Booooooooooo”. A Wednesday night All Hallow’s Eve offers multiple date options to host your spooky soiree. You can stay true to the witching hour and throw your spooktacular event on the 31st, or you can turn your house into a haunted mansion for a more intense weekend night event. But, the clock is ticking! By our count, you only have two weeks to scare up some creepy and creative ideas for a fun-filled fright night.
Pick a party theme
Who doesn’t love planning for a party? Especially if it’s a costume party. It’s time to start looking for inspiration to pick a Halloween theme that your guests can really sink their fangs into. Use Google to search through the news and popular culture of 2018, pick a moment in time or connect to characters from your favorite movie.
Boos at a bargain
Sure, the warehouse Halloween stores are great, but you need to find Boos at a bargain! Start at the second-hand store, search your zip code for the nearest thrift store and set off hunting for some spooks. Even just a visit to the thrift store can inspire the theme of your Halloween hoedown. Visit the thrift stores as soon as possible because the good Halloween decorations sell quickly.
Ghoulish gourmet
Host a Halloween dinner party and invite your guests to gobble up some ghoulish goodies. Mix up your favorite concoction at the bewitching bar or dive into some cherry cheesecake brain. Sip the night away with one of these 32 Halloween cocktails to die for.
Creepy contests
Whether you’re catering to kids or adults-don’t forget to entertain the beasts with entertainment. Party games are a great way to have some freaky fun and help your guests meet one another. If you have extra time, or a willing assistant, you can get crafty and create your own party games.
