Prepare Snacks And Beverages
Place a Halloween-themed tablecloth over a card or dining room table. Prepare snacks that have a creepy appearance for you and your guests. For example, you can make red-colored jello and fill a bowl with it. Peel green grapes and add them to the jello. When your guests arrive, you can tell them that the jello is human flesh and that the grapes are eyes.
Prepare cream puffs and decorate the end of each of them with pink or purple icing, so that the decorated portions resemble painted fingernails. Tell your friends that the cream puffs are human fingers. Prepare a bowl of fruit punch. As you use a ladle to fill cups for each of your guests, tell everyone that the punch is blood.
Decorate The Dining Area And Living Room
Use fake spiderwebs that are made out of cotton and rubber spiders to decorate the entryway that separates the diniing room from the living room. Another option is to cover the entryway with a dark-colored sheet. Go into the living room and set up the movie viewing area. After purchasing classic horror movies that have been recorded on DVDs, arrange the selection of movies on a coffee table so that your friends can help you select which films to watch. Place a row of chairs in front of the television set.
Carve a couple pumpkins and place a candle inside the base of each one. Before everyone arrives for the movie extravaganza, turn off standard lights in the living room so that the flickering candles are the only lights in the room. Play recordings of eerie sounds on a stereo system as your guests filter into the dining room. Once each person has gathered snacks and a beverage, lead everyone through the entryway to the living room and welcome them to a night filled with fun and fear as you invite them to sit down and watch the horror movies with you.
