Halloween "Web" site we've weaved for you! "Velcome" to our Halloween party pages.
"Ve" have some ghoulish games to play, and freaky foods made easy for "mummies"
and daddies to prepare.

This Halloween you'll hob nob with the little hobgoblins, and have a good time serving
up the fiendish fun with our home made horrors, and creepy concoctions. Here's how to
have a good time decorating from the crypt...

  • Consider a Halloween Pool Party. If you have an indoor pool or good weather,you
    can turn your pool into a swamp to create a Halloween pool party they'll never
    forget.

  • Sweet but spooky Halloween table setting ideas:
  • Use icing gel to "glue plastic spiders to the dessert plates for a creepy
    effect. (Do NOT serve to kids under 4 years.) Icing gel will also give your
    glasses a creepy look when you affix icing gel or white frosting to the back
    of gummy eyeballs.
  • Wrap black licorice vines into napkin rings on orange or purple napkins.
  • Sprinkle candy corn like confetti on the tables.

  • Creepy yet cool Halloween flower arrangement ideas:
  • Buy white carnations and spray paint them black. Strip the leaves off the
    stems. Next, cut the ends off black licorice sticks and thread the stems
    through the licorice and bundle with an orange ribbon and insert into a
    clear vase with water.
  • Nestle a small clear glass vase inside a larger glass vase. Fill the gap with
    candy corn. Fill the smaller vase with water and insert your favorite flower
    arrangement.

  • Download eerie sounds on Amazon. Send them giggling with silly Halloween Witch
    farts and other fun Halloween MP3 and CD finds.

Halloween Party games
Forget bobbing for apples, moms prefer safer activities. For ghoulish giggles, consider
these fiendishly fun ideas:

  • Play "Wheel of misfortune:" Make your own Wheel of fortune game board and
    modify it for the Wheel of Misfortune game. The idea with this game is that kids
    spin and must eat an "unfortunate" food item they spin, which adds a fear factor
    to the party. Don't force kids to eat anything, but allow the brave ones to have at
    the fun and steer clear of food allergens. The key is to make food that's edible
    and entertaining, tasty and fun.  Don't discloses to guests what they are about to
    eat. Unveil each food item as the game ensues. It also helps if adults chime in.
    For example "Oh no! Don't make him eat the "earth worm!" Here are some ideas
    of foods creative foods you can prepare in advance of the party:
  • an "earth worm" (roll a gummy worm in cocoa powder and serve it with
    chopsticks, be sure to jiggle it several times to spook the kids)
  • Igor's dog food (cocoa puffs cereal in a new doggie dish or Kooky Chews
    candy, pictured right)
  • a plate of "ants" (have kids lick the chocolate jimmies from the plate clean)
  • rat droppings (raisins)
  • alien slime (jello)
  • an "eyeball" (carrot round stump with an olive set by cream cheese)
  • eye of newt (a peeled grape presented on a spoon)
  • diluted vampire's blood (a beaker or test tube of Kool-Aid).
  • You may choose some simple recipes below for this game, as well, such as
    salty bones or boogers on a stick.

  • Have an eyeball hunt. You'll find that there are a variety of candies and favors
    devoted to eyeballs that will make this event fun and in substitute of a pinata.
    Here are some eyeball novelties and favor ideas to get you started:

Howling Good Halloween Recipes

Drinks
  • Punch from the black lagoon: Mix grape Kool-Aid and Orange Kool-Aid together and
    you'll get an eerie black color, yet keeps the familiar fruity flavor. Add a dash of
    lemon-lime carbonated beverage for a bubbling brew they'll surely remember.
    This creepy concoction looks even more scary when served in a black cauldron.

Cookies and desserts

  • Creepy cookie from the crypt: Use your finger as a stencil for sugar cookie shape,
    then decorate with an almond slice for fingernail and a few strokes to make the
    lines of the joints. Bake on a wooden popsicle stick. (Soak the stick in water prior
    to baking). Make an edible "finger" puppet.

  • Bone-a-fid treat. Skewer up two mini marshmallows on a pretzel stick, dip in white
    chocolate and allow to harden. Make no bones about it, "dem" bones is good and
    frightfully easy.


  • Eyes Cream for Halloween! Glue lifesavers to plates with white frosting layered
    with an M&M center and a dab of black gel. Serve cake and ice cream.

More scary treats
  • The kids will flip for this Halloween food, including Kitty Litter cake. boogers on a
    stick, strained eyeballs and more.


Halloween Party Favor Ideas
  • Buy an orange paper bag, draw a pumpkin face, fill it with favors, puff it up, then
    use masking tape for stem to seal the bag.

Halloween invitation ideas:
Involve the kids in making and distributing the Halloween party invitations.

  • Older kids will love to present friends with witch finger in a box. Start with a small
    cotton filled jewelry gift box, available at The Container Store. Poke a hole
    through the bottom of the box and the cotton bottom, slip on a witch finger and
    close the box. Kids approach their friends and ask, "You want to know what's in
    this box? My mom dug up a real witch finger in our garden! Want to see it? Don't
    faint! Ready?" Then slowly open the box and pop out the finger and watch kids
    wriggle and giggle. Then tuck the invitation details in the box and hand deliver
    with the finger. Alternatively, wrap gauze around the finger and have a mummy
    tale from the crypt.

  • For another three dimensional invitation, try the "open if you dare" box,  which
    has a toy rat surprise. (Oh, rats! We spoiled the surprise.) This is an invitation
    you could also mail in a padded envelope, or leave at the doorstep.

  • Halloween invitation wording ideas:
  • You're invited to hob-nob with the hobgoblins
  • Haunted House: 123 Main Street
  • RSVP: Resident Witch Jenny or Jenny's Mummy at 867-5309
  • P.S. Come as you aren't!
