Spook Up The Scene
Make the space spooky with haunting house decor. Start with the entrance, adding cotton spiderwebs, lit-up pumpkins, spooky sound effects, and silly skeletons to greet your guests at the door. Be sure to pick decorations that are suitable for all ages – if you’re expecting a younger crowd, you might want to skip the guts and gore and stick with the more traditional themes. Continue the frightful feel throughout the venue, including spaces like the bathroom and kitchen. Here are 45 Halloween party decor ideas to help you get started.
Feed Your Frightful Friends
One of the best ways to wow your guests is to offer a great spread of food and drinks. Whether you want to create towers of treats, or opt for a healthier Halloween, the presentation of what you’re serving is just as important as the offerings you serve. From these chomp-worthy monster meatball sliders, to this to-die-for graveyard taco dip, your guests will be dying as they devour your dishes!

Make Sure Your Friends Have A Howling Good Time
There’s a fine line between planned activities that are fun, and those that are completely cheesy. Guests may not want to play boring games like pin the fangs on the vampire, but it’s also important to have a few things set up to give them something to do – especially if there are children involved.
Karaoke offers fun for all ages, and the soundtrack can double as your party music too! Consider adding a Sip Social Co. mobile bar cart to ensure that everyone gets their liquid courage and watch as your guests howl while they sing along and pose for photos in their Halloween costumes next to the social media friendly Sip Social Co. truck.
