Halloween Theme Party - 10 Awesome Ideas

1. A Halloween theme party can mean many things to different people, so you have to narrow it down into a sub-theme to be more specific.

2. You need to decide early on what kind of Halloween theme party you want. Are you going to have an open theme where people can come as they like or are you going to narrow it down to movie characters, historical figures or the more traditional and usual monsters.

3. Cut your invitations out from card and make pumpkins or a witches hat from it. Be creative! State clearly that anybody who isn't dressed up when they arrive will be charged admission on the door.

4. As far as your costume goes, Im sure you haven't missed all the possibilities while you were out shopping. Some classic costumes include; Frankenstein, Dracula, Freddy Kruger, Zombies, Cats, Witches and Demons.

5. Make some pumpkin lanterns to line the path leading up to your house. You can hang them on the trees or place them on the path.

6. Replace all of the light bulbs with green or red ones to add an eerie feeling to the atmosphere. Light plenty of candles and spread them around the room.
