Contests and games for Halloween. Halloween party with friends - cool games and competitions

The Halloween holiday in our country is most often just a costume party in a hall decorated in the appropriate style, where guests do not really think about the true traditions of celebrating this day and happily pretend to be various “evil spirits”. Therefore, it is more correct to talk not about the scenario of this holiday, but about Halloween party for young people called “Nightmare Night”.

We offer an option game program evening, which can be arranged at the very beginning of the holiday before the dancing and buffet reception. The organization of such a program can be entrusted to professionals who will include several beautiful thematic concert numbers or cook it yourself (the dance and musical numbers may well be prepared by their own talented youth) Musical accompaniment of the game program is attached(thanks to the authors and performers)

Halloween is coming! Do you want to throw a truly scary and fun Halloween party at your home?

Invitations

Of course, you need to start with stylish invitations. An original solution could be cute skeletons packed in black envelopes or mysterious owls. You can give them in person or send them by e-mail.

A great idea would also be to create a VKontakte Event, where you can invite participants to the event, write the date and time of the event, and after you hold the party, you can post photos from your holiday there. Cool congratulations on Halloween you will find.

Snacks and cocktails from Hell

Particular attention should be paid to snacks and cocktails. For example, make colorful snacks from bloody eyes. For this you will need eggs, processed cheese, olives and ketchup.

You will find a detailed recipe with photos.

You can make funny monsters from apples, their tongues from strawberries, teeth from seeds, and eyes from eggs.

You can complement the snacks with funny ghost bananas, with chocolate eyes and mouths, and tangerine pumpkins with cucumber stems.

What would Halloween be without a Bloody Mary cocktail, and even with bloody eyes floating in the glasses? And without hellish witches’ potions and tinctures with spiders, scorpions, flies, skeletons and other evil spirits, the holiday simply won’t be Halloween!

Don’t forget to invite your guests to try “real blood”, which can be served perfectly with mulled wine or punch.

Quest "In search of ingredients for the Witch's Potion"

In one of the rooms or throughout the apartment, various ingredients are hung, scattered, hidden for preparing the most witchcraft potion: spiders, skeletons, frogs, flies, snakes and other evil spirits.

The lights are turned off, and participants can only use the backlight from the phone. The participants' task is to find as many ingredients as possible. The one who finds the most “unclean” things wins.

Then the next person who wants to is taken into the Cave of Fear. As a result, all subsequent participants hear heartbreaking screams and are increasingly afraid to enter the Cave of Fear. The very last participant is a real hero, because he heard so many soul-curdling screams and was not afraid to look into the Cave of Fear.

Game "Haunted Room"

The owner of the apartment tells a small creepy story about the next room, which is haunted. And he invites guests to see for themselves. And most importantly, send the ghost into another world. To do this, you need to find and remove all the remains of Old Dead Joe from the room.

Guests are taken into a dark room and scary music with ghost sounds is played. In bags scattered throughout the room, each guest finds some part of Dead Joe's body. But it is not enough to take the remains out of the room; each participant must also name what part of the body he is holding in his hands.

Heart – tomato without peel;

Fingers are wet sausages;

Eyes – 2 grapes;

Ears – 2 artichokes or 2 pea pods;

Teeth – dentures or small stones;

Without sticking out his hand, he must guess what kind of terrible object he is holding in his hand and tell a frightening story associated with this object. After that, he can take out the object and be surprised how far his imagination can take him.

Various dried fruits and vegetables can be used as scary objects (as wrinkled parts of the face and body); slime (like ghost slime), dentures, processed cheese, wet and boiled pasta (worms), any toy insects: spiders, husbands, tarantulas, etc.

Competition "Show yourself"

If you are having a costume party, you can throw a competition with a personal performance by each character. To do this, you need to pump up different “dark” music in advance, and each guest must portray his character as naturalistically and brightly as possible. The winner is the one who receives the most votes for his performance from other participants.

Even if you don’t have costumes, you can prepare cards in advance with the names of “dark” characters (Witch, Ghost, Skeleton, Vampire, etc.) and then all the other guests must not only watch the performance, but also guess who each participant plays .

Game “Write something more terrible”

For this game you will need a ball painted like a bloody eye, or a false jaw, or some small, scary object that will be passed from hand to hand. All participants sit in a circle.

The first participant picks up a bloody eye and begins a scary story (says a sentence). Then he passes the eye to the next participant, who must continue the story, etc. You can continue the game until you get bored. And to enhance the effect, you can turn off the lights, use a flashlight or light a small lamp, and turn on slightly nerve-wracking music in the background.

Game "Sabbath of Witches"

To play, you need a broom (mop), a skull, a bloody eye, or some spectacular Halloween-related item.

Participants stand in a circle and quickly begin to pass the object from hand to hand to the accompaniment of scary music. The participant who is holding a “scary” object when the music ends is eliminated from the game. The game can continue until the last participant. He wins this game.

Ghostbuster

One participant, the ghost hunter, is blindfolded, and the other participants become ghosts. The ghosts make various frightening sounds and rage around the Hunter. The Hunter's task is to catch the ghost and correctly say its name. If the Hunter guesses correctly, the captured ghost takes his place.

Game "Scary Stories"

To play, you need balls according to the number of players. Each player needs to draw a scary face on their ball using a felt-tip pen. The one with the scariest face will win.

After such fun entertainment on Halloween, you and your friends will remember this fun, stylish and interesting holiday for a long time!

Wish you Have a great holiday,
Ekaterina Akhmetzyanova, author of the idea.

Changing clothes. The ancient Celts, who gave us the holiday (for the ancient Celts it was the fire festival of Samhain), believed that fairies, spirits, witches and other evil spirits, as well as the souls of the dead, roam the earth on this night. On this night, it was customary to go to neighbors' houses, disguised as inhabitants of the world of the dead, and ask.

Pumpkin carving. Depicting spirits or witches, the Celts often carved their faces out of turnips or other vegetables and carried them with them, frightening neighbors and passers-by. Today it is customary to use pumpkins for this, from which the entire inside is first removed, and then the eyes, nose and mouth are cut out from the remaining walls. A candle is often placed inside the pumpkin. There are others for the holiday party.

Trick or treat. The tradition of going from house to house, dressed as evil spirits, and asking the owners came to us from the Celts. They believed that on the night of Samhain, various creatures and souls of the dead come to earth and need to be appeased, offering them all kinds of offerings. In connection with this belief, the Celts themselves began to dress up as evil spirits and walk from house to house on the night of Samhain, asking for food. Those owners who refused to “feed” the spirits had to be punished with some kind of joke or practical joke.

Games with fruits and vegetables. Another traditional entertainment for All Hallows' Eve is all kinds of games with fruits and vegetables. This tradition also refers us to the Celtic festival of Samhain, which was a harvest festival. Nowadays, apples are most often used for games, although variations are possible.

The most common game in Halloween is, perhaps, catching apples from a bowl of water. Water is poured into a large bowl and several apples are thrown into it. The participant must catch the apple from the bowl by grabbing it with his teeth.

Another “apple” variation is to hang an apple on a rope at approximately the level of the participant’s face, who must eat the fruit without touching it with his hands.

Fortune telling. Fortune telling is an integral part of the Halloween celebration. Since on this night the spirits find themselves among people, it is believed that you can ask them about your future.

The most common version of fortune telling on All Saints' Night also uses an apple. To do this, you need to cut off the entire skin of the apple in the form of one long strip, and then throw it over your left shoulder. It is believed that the skin will fall to the floor in the shape of the first letter of the name of the future spouse. An unmarried girl on this night has the opportunity to see her future husband. To do this, she must remain alone in a dark room and gaze intently into the mirror. After some time, the face of her betrothed should appear in the mirror.

Catching apples with teeth from a bucket of water

To do this, fill a large, clean container almost completely with water (it's better to use wide, rectangular household containers rather than buckets). Children take turns putting their heads into the container and trying to catch the apple with their teeth. You can't help yourself with your hands. You can set the condition that the first one to catch an apple is the winner, or so that the game has no winners, just that each participant must catch his own apple from the water. The game must take place in the presence of adults.

"Pumpkin Explosion" Halloween game

Do you want Halloween to start with a bang, not a boom? Then make this playful wall decoration. Any partygoer can come up and blow up part of the balloon pumpkin and get some candy out of it.

Tools and materials for creating the Pumpkin Explosion game: a piece of foam plastic, 2 meters of burlap or other fabric, double-sided adhesive tape, removable hooks (for hanging the board, but you can just put it on the floor), thirty-five orange balloons, confetti, green paper, ribbon (string), snaps (point pen or darts for big kids), funnel.

1. Make a lid from polystyrene foam and burlap. We attach it to the wall with double-sided tape or removable hooks.

2. Fill the balloons with confetti (using a funnel) and candies. You can leave some balloons empty or add their wishes inside.

3. Inflate Balloons(the pump does it faster); tie it in a knot. Attach the pumpkin-shaped balls with double-sided tape (you only need a little bit).

4. Cut out the pumpkin root from green paper and secure at the top.

5. Cut the tape and attach pens or a dart arrow to the thumbtack to make them easier to hold (and find if dropped).

"Pumpkin Hitting" Halloween game

Cut out a pumpkin (or two, or three) and line the inside with aluminum foil. Make the top hole large.
Place the pumpkin a couple of meters from the player. Give each player ten to twenty kopecks. Every time a penny hits the pumpkin, you win candy.

"Pumpkin bowling" game for Halloween

Choose a small pumpkin (depending on the age of your guests).

Still need 1 - or 2 liter plastic bottles and bowling starting line tape. Fill the bottles with a little sand or rice if they tip over too easily. You can also decorate the bottles eerily with markers, stickers, and other art supplies.

"Evil spirits in touch" Halloween game

A game similar to "broken phone". The players sit in a line and whisper to each other a phrase invented by the leader. The participants’ task is to convey the phrase with minimal distortion.
An interesting addition in the spirit of the holiday is that the game takes place in complete darkness and phrases such as: “I’ll eat you,” “Let’s go drink blood,” “Fresh meat,” “We’ll get to you,” etc. .

"Creepy howl" game for Halloween

Participants take turns emitting a terrible scream (howl, groan). The one who produces the wildest and most terrible scream is declared the winner and receives a prize.

"Will-o'-the-wisp" Halloween game

You will need: flashlight, music.

All participants sit in a circle. The lights in the room are turned off, and one of the players is given a burning flashlight. Soft music should be playing, preferably something creepy. A will-o'-the-wisp (flashlight) is passed from one player to another until the music stops. The player who has Will-o'-the-wisp at that moment is eliminated. The game continues until one player remains, and he wins.

"Mummy" Halloween game

You will need: a large number of toilet paper.

This is a team game. Players are divided into teams of two. One will play the role of the Mummy, the other will be the Egyptian. At the signal, the Egyptian must wrap up the Mummy as quickly as possible toilet paper from head to toe (eyes, mouth and nose, naturally, remain “free”). The one who made the Mummy faster wins. Just be careful: if the paper tears, the team is out of the game!

Ghost Hunt

You will need: a scarf.

To begin with, you must select a “ghost hunter”. He needs to be blindfolded with a scarf. The rest of the participants are now ghosts, they dance around the hunter, and the hunter tries to grab them. If he succeeds, then the captured ghost moans and laments pitifully. If the hunter recognizes the ghost by its voice and calls its name, they change roles. However, if the hunter does not guess correctly, he must try his luck with another caught player.

Sinister pouch

You will need: a small bag; a number of strange or unpleasant to the touch objects (dried plums, wrinkled carrots, mushroom caps, wet sponges, etc.)

First, you need to put all the items in a bag (preferably before the guests arrive). Participants sit in a circle. The presenter, in a creepy tone, tells a chilling story about where and how he found the bag (for example, in a cemetery, in a haunted house, or is it a gift from a ghost, etc.) The first player is invited to take something in the bag (look inside and You cannot feel the bag!). It is prohibited to remove the item. After the player grabs an item, he must invent the scariest story possible about it. For example, a player finds a dried plum and assumes that it is someone's plucked out, shrunken eye. And makes up a story about him. At the end of the story, the narrator finally pulls this thing out of the bag and, as a rule, is surprised at how far his imagination can take him. After this, the bag is passed to the next player, who tells his story about another item.

Blowing a “balloon” for Halloween

An inflated balloon is placed in the middle of the table.
The two participants are blindfolded and sit opposite each other at the table.
They are asked to compete in blowing up the ball.
However, as soon as the contestants begin to blow, the ball is removed and a plate generously filled with flour is placed in its place.
The participants are amazed, and when their eyes are untied, they usually have fun with everyone

"Take care of your eyes" game for Halloween

You will need: a table tennis ball, painted like an eyeball; tablespoon.
Participants must divide into two groups. A short section of the path is indicated (start and finish). Each participant, in turn, must cover this distance while carefully carrying the “eye” in a spoon. The “eye” should not fall! If it still falls, the player returns to the start and goes through the path again. The team that finishes the relay faster wins.

"Fortune" game for Halloween

You will need: lemon juice, pieces of paper, a thin brush, a lamp.

With this game you can make a strong impression on your guests! It's almost as if you could predict their future. First you need to prepare. Write a few words on pieces of paper with a brush dipped in lemon juice. On some write a number, on others the words “yes”, “no” and “maybe”. Don't be upset that you don't see the inscription, everything is going according to plan. Place the pieces of paper in a certain way in a pile (those with numbers - in one, and those with words - in another), just be sure to remember where you have what: where are the numbers, and where are the words. Your lamp, which you place on the table, will serve as a magical crystal ball. Now let's move on to the game itself. Ask your guests to ask you a question. If the question requires the answers “yes”, “no” and “maybe”, then you take a piece of paper from one pile and hold it to the lamp. After a while, the invisible font appears and your guests are delighted! If the question requires a number in the answer (for example, what grade will I get next time in math?), then simply take a piece of paper from another pile and show it.

Game "I'm Scarier"

For this game you will need markers and inflated balloons in an amount equal to the number of participants in the game. The players' task is to draw a monster's face on the ball. The author of the scariest balloon wins this competition.

"Dance of the Witches" Halloween game

You will need: a broom (you can use a broom, mop, etc. instead), music.

Participants stand in a circle with a broom. When the music turns on, the witches begin to dance merrily and pass the broom from hand to hand. The witch who has the broom after the music stops is eliminated from the game (without the broom, of course). The winner is the one who ends up dancing alone with the broom.

"Tales of Mischief" Halloween game

The following proverbs and sayings about evil spirits are suitable for this competition:

Collecting candy through a straw

Another simple game that children find very fun is to suck air through a straw to collect as many chocolate chips or colored M&Ms as possible.

"Witch's Pantry" Halloween game

The lights in the room turn off and players start up, who can illuminate themselves, for example, mobile phones.

Competition for the best spell

When it gets dark, you have to come up with and cast the most terrible and chilling spell (and, of course, explain to others what this spell does).

Game "Running on Chicken Legs"

2 pairs of “chicken legs” are sewn from foam rubber. At one end of the hall, two teams of 4-5 people line up. At the other end of the hall there is a counter. At the signal, the first players on the team put on the “chicken legs”, run around the counter, return to their team and pass the “chicken legs” to the next player. The winning team is the first to finish the competition.

Halloween Pranks

Prank game "Mummy"

The presenter invites everyone to take turns visiting the mummy’s crypt. The mummy's crypt is set up in the next room. The lights in the room are turned off and several candles are lit. A person lies down on the sofa and covers himself with a sheet. An open trough with yogurt or soft cottage cheese is placed on the mummy's face.
The driver, having entered the “crypt” with the “victim,” begins to tell in a sepulchral voice: “This is the crypt of a mummy. This is the coffin of a mummy (pointing to the sofa). This is the leg of a mummy (at this moment the driver takes the palm of the “victim” and places it on the person’s leg , lying under the sheet). This is the mummy's hand (the victim's palm is applied to the hand). This is the mummy's neck (the palm is applied to the neck). ).
For this prank to be successful, several rehearsals are necessary. Try not to prank overly impressionable people.

"Pharaoh" Halloween prank

We choose a girl and blindfold her. We bring her to the table on which someone is lying. They take her hands and put them on different parts lying body. At the same time, each time they say: “here is the pharaoh’s leg, here is the pharaoh’s stomach, here...”, and at the end the hands are lowered into some salad and they say, “but here are the pharaoh’s brains.” The result is unpredictable.

"Room of Horrors" Halloween prank

The organizer of the holiday invites the bravest volunteer to visit the room of horrors. The volunteer goes with the leader into a dark bathroom. He receives the task of shouting to extinguish the candle burning there. After this, the volunteer is prohibited from telling the other guests what happened in the horror room. As a result, the next participant who heard the terrible screams goes into the horror room with some apprehension. And after several participants who were in the room uttered heartbreaking “screams of horror,” the rest of those present were afraid to go there.

"Old Dead Joe's Cave" Halloween Prank Game

This is delightfully "scary" fun for older children. To organize such a game, you will have to work hard in advance to equip a special darkened room, placing in it on stands or just chairs various “body parts” of “Old Dead Joe”: “eyes”, “tongue”, and so on. They should be placed in vessels or containers of suitable volume, mostly filled with warm water. Each of the children who is brave enough for this is blindfolded and allowed to enter the “cave” - no more than one child at a time. You, as a good owner, should lead the child from one scary object to another, each time allowing him to put his hands into the vessel and try to determine by touch what it contains. All other children at this time should sit quietly and, with bated breath, listen to the squeals and screams of the daredevil, who is being led through the “cave.”

Any room with tightly closed curtains or even a corridor (if the holiday takes place after sunset) can serve as a cave - just don’t turn on the lights, and the participants are guaranteed a scary experience :)

Here are the body parts of “Old Dead Joe” that you need to make and place in the “cave” in advance:
- “Old Dead Joe’s Bones” - find tree branches of a suitable size on the street and free them from twigs and leaves;;
- "Old Dead Joe's Guts" - a large bowl filled with wet, slimy noodles;
- "Old Dead Joe's Heart" - a very large peeled tomato;;
- “The Eyes of Old Dead Joe” - a small container filled with water in which two large grapes float;
- "Old Dead Joe's Teeth" - a metal pot or kettle filled with small stones or hard candies;
- "Old Dead Joe's Hair" - a human hair wig stretched over a ball;
- "Old Dead Joe's Ears" - two halves of an artichoke (with the sharp spines trimmed);
- "Old Dead Joe's Nose" - a raw potato cut into the shape of a nose;
- "Old Dead Joe's Fingers" - cold sausages;
- Finally, "Old Dead Joe's Blood" is a pot or jug ​​filled with warm tomato juice.
You will need to have a towel on hand to dry your child's hands after they have gotten into the blood.

When you leave the “cave” with a child, you can do a great job of intimidating children who have not yet visited the cave by loudly declaring: “Run, go and wash the blood off your hands: otherwise the whole parquet will be covered in blood!” The squeals and delight of the festival participants are guaranteed.

You will also need a flashlight to help you navigate your way through a dark room. Of course, the child will be blindfolded, but you will need a little light to guide him by the hand from vessel to vessel.
Be sure to videotape the entire event (including your visit to "Old Dead Joe's Cave"); it can be successfully demonstrated to guests closer to the end of the holiday.

We hope that the presented Halloween games and pranks will delight you, your loved ones and guests! Happy Halloween!
