1) Decide a theme--- Pick the best theme that will fit your party. You can choose any theme you’d like, scary, funny, movie theme, etc.

2) Shop around for the best deals--- Look for coupons, marked down items, sales, and compare prices to other stores.


3) Don't be afraid to buy store made food--- At often times it can be cheaper and there is nothing wrong with having food that is already prepared; saves you time, money, and helps relieve some stress when planning. Also, shop at whole sale stores for themed snacks to get the best prices and delicious food!


4) Make easy food--- Make appetizers, meals, snacks, or desserts that only take 10-30 minutes to make. Some Halloween food that you can make are pigs(mummies) in a blanket, monster eyeball sugar cookies, Halloween bark, candy corn sugar cookies, Halloween graveyard brownies, pumpkin shaped pizzas, pumpkin chili, spider deviled eggs, quesadillas, and much more!


5) Set up a Halloween drink station--- Add your favorite soda, drinks, garnishes and make labels for them like witch's brew, vampire blood, or magic potion. This a great way to impress your guests and you get to be as creative as you want and have fun with it! Also, some of the garnishes you can add are cherries, vampire teeth, syringes, candy, etc.


6) Set up a Halloween cookie station--- Lay out sugar cookies and add your favorite colored frosting, sprinkles, and other Halloween garnishes.


7) Make easy party favors--- Make s'mores kits with festive marshmallows.


8) Make your own decorations-- Make your own garland, spray paint tin cans and make them look like monsters, make creepy jars by adding in dish soap and plastic creatures, buy Dollar Store pumpkins and draw on them. Also, you can shop at cheap stores and thrift items to revamp them into Halloween decorations.


9) Make fun games--- Halloween bean bag toss, Halloween Bingo, witch's hat ring toss, costume contest with fun prizes.


10) Make a Halloween playlist--- Have a go to playlist that has all of your favorite music for when you are ready to party. You can even have themed playlist or have playlist from Halloween movies. One example is, The Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack or you can create your own playlist:
