Halloween Party Games!!

Have a Fun Party

It’s that time of year again, and time to start planning the best Halloween party ever. Now granted, Madgamer is typically plugged into his Xbox, and unable to break away from the screen in order to attend social events. But when it comes to Halloween, well, I gotta get up and get myself some more traditional fun – not to mention handful after handful of candy.

If you are planning a Halloween-themed party this year, there are all kinds of great decorations and costumes and trinkets available through the site. Then, when it comes to filling in the party hours with some excellent games, Madgamer has looked around the ‘net for some terrific ideas.

Mummy Game

Pair everybody up, and give each team a roll of toilet paper. Then, have one member of each team wrap the other up in the style of ancient Egypt – assuming they used Charmin. Let the mummy-wrappers go for about a minute or so, and then the most “mummified” is the winner.

Scare the Crow

This game can get pretty messy, so try and do it in the backyard (or in the garage if the weather’s bad). Form teams of three or four, depending on the size of your party, and give everybody a pile of old clothing, particularly shirt and jeans, a clump of hay for filling the scarecrow’s body, and a pumpkin for a head. See which team can build the best scarecrow, and winning team gets a prize.

Jinx

At the start of your party give all guests a bag of candy with about two-dozen pieces or so and tell everybody a list of five-to-ten words that are “forbidden” – try using words like “Halloween” or “Trick-r-treat” or “candy.” Make sure everybody knows the words, and then whenever one guest catches another guest using on of the “jinxed” words, the offender has to hand over a piece of candy. See who has the most candy left at the end of the party.

Games -- To play or not to play

 OK, maybe your idea of a fun party doesn't include playing games. What do you think -- would a party featuring games like this actually be any fun??
