Halloween Party Games: A Devilishly Good Time!


When your children are too old for trick or treating, and too young for unsupervised Halloween parties, it is tough to pick Halloween party games and themes that do not seem too “young” to those trying so hard to seem “adult”... My children solved the problem for me by creating their own games, and taking charge of the Halloween Party Games themselves.


Consider hiring a “genuine” Gypsy fortune teller, or a tarot card reader for an entertaining Halloween party game of seeing into the future. Block off a small cubicle with room dividers or curtains. Most teens seriously reject the idea of parents being present at their party, but the gypsy/tarot reader just became your chaperone, and the kids won’t even realize it even better if you can block off strategically placed dividers for both the fortune teller, and the tarot reader. Then you have two chaperones, and it is always best if parents have to stick their heads in occasionally to refill the witch’s brew pot, or bring in fresh pizza.


No matter how old these kids want to be, they will all love a Halloween party game where their fortunes are told, or their cards read. Coordinate a séance, and enlist the aid of some collaborators, to make things go bump in the night. Throw in an Ouija board, and your Halloween Party Games just got cool!


Halloween party games of Twister, black light style, are always fun, and a back yard Halloween party game of flashlight tag is good for teens as well. Keep the music loud, leave lots of room for dancing, throw in plenty of food, lots of witches brew, limit what appears to be direct supervision, by disguising your peaks in as food and drink checks, and you have a Halloween Party, and Halloween party games sure to please even the most discerning teen!
