Halloween isn't just for kids anymore. Abundance of adults celebrate the day as well. Halloween parties are a tasteless event for many adults these days. If you're planning a party of your own, here are some fun adult Halloween games to liven it up.
Photo Scavenger Hunt
Couples Halloween Costume
The object of a photo scavenger hunt is to get pictures of all the items using a digital camera or a Polaroid camera so the pictures can be judged right away.
Break your guests up into some small groups and give each of them a list of items they have to find. They can all get the same items or you can make each one distinct if you don't want them tripping over one other in their search.
They head out on foot or by car to find the items and take pictures of themselves with each one. I like to make them find person to take their picture if possible - if the whole group isn't in each one, they get penalized.
You can choose the winner by the first team to finish, the team with the most creative pictures or anyone criteria you want.
Make the scavenger hunt items fit the theme of your party. You could use a tombstone, a hockey mask, red paint or a bad dream movie poster for example.
Pumpkin Bowling
This one is fun for any age, really, but adults can have a lot of fun with it.
Partially fill ten 2 liter pop bottles with water to weight them down, then decorate them to fit the theme of your party.
Set them up in the accepted 10 pin layout.
Have your guests "bowl" with pumpkins. The smaller gourds regularly work best, or at least smaller pumpkins. Round ones tend to roll best but the ones that aren't as perfect make the game a lot more challenging.
Pumpkin Carving
A lot of habitancy have switched to painting pumpkins rather than carving, both for protection and for longer persisting jack-o-lanterns. But carving is still the best in my opinion. There's nothing that says Halloween like the light of a candle flickering straight through the face of a pumpkin.
You can buy carving kits at most craft and hobby shop around Halloween, with small tools for more detailed carving.
They regularly come with stencils as well but for this game you'll probably want to leave it up to your guests to do freestyle.
You can judge the game in some ways - the first to end their pumpkin, the most creative (in your judgement or the entire group's), the scariest, etc.
And there are Abundance of children's games that are just as much fun for adults - bobbing for apples, Twister, musical chairs, etc. Don't worry about either it's a "mature" thing to do - just worry about either your guests enjoy themselves!
