Adult Halloween Parties

Halloween is not just fun for the kids, but can be a blast for adults as well. Why not throw an adults only Halloween party? Halloween can be fun for people of all ages. Be sure to have lots of spooky decorations and serve up some yummy treats at your bash. Make sure that your guests know to arrive in costume either by wording it on the invitation or by verbally telling them in advance. Have a variety of activities for your guests and your party is sure to be a great success. If Halloween falls on a weekday, consider waiting until the weekend to hold your party.

Ideas for Halloween Games for Adult Groups

There are many Halloween games that adults will enjoy playing at a party. Games are not just for kids; they can liven up a party and break the ice if the guests do not all know each other very well. The following are some ideas to consider as games for your party:

  • Best Costume Contest – Be sure that your guests know to arrive in costume. You can have various categories to judge such as scariest, funniest, sexiest, and silliest costume.
  • Pumpkin Carving Contest - Guests of all ages can carve pumpkins as a group or individually. Be sure to set up an area where the mess can be made and easily cleaned up. Plastic covers make cleaning up a breeze. Be sure to have tools on hand for pumpkin carving and let the guests be as creative as they choose. Guests can vote for their favorite designs.
  • Bobbing for Apples - Adults can take part in this classic game for fall as well. The winner is whoever gets the most apples.
  • Horror Movie Trivia - Create trivia questions ahead of time based on different horror movies. Split the guests into teams and see who can answer the most questions correctly.

There are more Halloween games for adult groups to consider such as:

  • Games for couples such as the Newlywed Game - The couple who answers the most questions correctly is the winner.
  • Halloween Charades - Write down different words or phrases pertaining to the Halloween season and have guests break up into teams and act out the words. The activity is a fun way to bring guests together.
  • Guessing Games - This game can have endless variations, such as how many candy corns are in the jar, and is a fun idea for those not willing to participate in other types of games.
  • Scavenger Hunt - Hide various items indoors and outdoors and give lists to teams of guests to find. Be sure the list contains festive Halloween items such as pumpkins, cut-out black cats, masks and candy. A scavenger hunt requires some work and planning but is a great way for friends to have fun.
