10 Halloween Party Games

I got so tired of searching the internet for halloween party games for adults and just finding all the conventional children's games adapted into drinking games. If you really want to turn these all into drinking games you can, but I think they are fun just as they are.....

1. GRAVEYARD TREASURE HUNT

This one is probably the most genuinely scary (and possibly disrespectful) of the party games.
You'll need torches, the host needs to prepare the clues in advance and you'll need a graveyard nearby! Give everyone the name of a deceased person. They need to find the grave of that person and then at that grave they'll find a piece of paper with another name on it. Keep going until the final grave has a group prize on it, instead of another name.


2. WHO AM I?

Stick names of famous scary movie characters to peoples head. They are to ask other people questions to try and work out who they are.






3. WITCH'S BREW COCKTAILS


Some members of the party make witch's brew style cocktails. The rest of the party sample them and decide whose is the tastiest and whose is the most halloweeny!
You'll need Cocktail glasses, Halloween decorations e.g. haribo sweets, Food Colouring, Fizzy Drinks, Straws Etc.


4. A SÉANCE


Gather in a circle and ask one of your more confident eccentric guests to lead everyone in a séance - an attempt to communicate with the spirits.




5. GUESS THE GRUESOME OBJECT OR GRUESOME FOOD


What you need:

- A big sheet of cardboard with two arm holes cut into into for guessing the gruesome object and a mouth hole for guessing the gruesome food.
- Gruesome objects and gruesome foods

6. HALLOWEEN TRIVIA QUIZ

Write a halloween trivia quiz. This could have historical questions about the origins of halloween, questions about famous gory crime, famous incidences of paranormal activity etc. etc.
Hand it out of the start of the night. Guests have a go at it in pairs Take them in at the end of the night. The pair who got the most right get a prize.

7. MASKING TAPE RACE

Divide your party up into teams of four or more. Lay down a long strip of masking tape for each team. Have the strips parallel. In a sort of relay, each team have to race up and down the masking tape strips without falling off the sides. They will have to go up and down as many times as it takes to call out all the letters in 'HALLOWEEN'. If they fall off at any point, they have to start the word again. The first team to complete the word win. You will need judges!

8. GUESS THE GHOST

One guest is blindfolded and then another guest is selected to be the ghost and a sheet is placed over them. The blindfolded party member has to feel the ghost and try and guess who it is!

9. SCRAMBLED WORDS

On a white board, write a load of anagrams of halloween themed words. Guest have to try and unscramble them. To spice things up.... Each guest could have to try to unscramble a word under a time limit. If they have not unscrambled it when their time is up, they get splattered with something!

10. SILENT MOVIE


Get your guests to arrange themselves into teams of threes or fours. They have to come up with a silent movie (and optionally film it). Each team is given a bag of random props (prepared by the host in advance)to base their plot around! Each team acts it out to the rest of the party, or shows a screening of it.
