Everybody loves Halloween, candy, costumes, booze, good people<\/a>. \u00a0What\u2019s not to love? Here are some tips and ideas to have the best Halloween part ever!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Put big candy bowls in every room… strategically<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This one should be obvious, but still\u2026 Put more candy in the rooms people will be hanging in, and less (or none) in busy rooms (like the kitchen.) \u00a0Nothing anchors a room like chocolate and peanut butter.<\/span><\/p>\n

Give some power to your punch<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

You\u2019re going to have a giant punch bowl<\/a>. \u00a0But let\u2019s add to it! \u00a0Fill a rubber glove with enough water to give it a hand shape. Stand it in a glass in your freezer to curl the fingers, or tie the end off with a rubber band and leave flat. Now you have an eerie claw grasping at punch-drinkers. But wait! You can make it glow in the dark safely by\u00a0using tonic water<\/span>\u00a0and staging a black light over the punch bowl.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Behold, the Great Pumpkin<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s be honest, giant pumpkins<\/a> aren\u2019t that tasty, and they\u2019ll cost a couple hundred bucks to buy, but if you get a good deal on one, here\u2019s a cool idea! You can cut the top off that sucker, fill it with ice, and stow all your beers in there for a cooler your guests will talk about forever after. Awesome! Or, if you\u2019ve got a strong table to support it, mount a tap in that gourd and dispense beer from your epic pumpkin keg. (You could also do this with several flavors of beer using normal-sized sugar pumpkins.)<\/span><\/p>\n

Waiter, there\u2019s a fly in my…<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

As long as you\u2019re still enjoying the punch bowl, might as well double-down on a buggy trick \u2014 novelty fly cubes. Freezing some raisins in ice cubes for the same effect and a much tastier prize: mmmm, sugary raisins in your boozy punch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Send messages from beyond the looking-glass<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Discreetly visit the bathroom during the night with some red lipstick. \u00a0Scrawl funny, creepy, silly messages on your medicine cabinet mirror. Come back after a few people have visited, and wipe the message away. Then return to extend the narrative.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Scheme a theme<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not throwing your party on October 31st proper, consider a costume theme. It\u2019s a great way to unify the party, and most people can put together a fun, low-key costume that fits, whether it\u2019s a movie everyone loves or something more interpretative, like puns, abstract ideas, or unrelated combinations. It takes some of the pressure off to have a great costume and just have a fun, silly one.<\/span><\/p>\n

Give out the Gold – best costume<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

All your guests are rightly proud of their costumes, they browsed, waited in line, shelled out buck to be the funniest, sexiest, scariest. (Who are you supposed to be, dude? A monstrous lack of effort?) It doesn\u2019t have to be a big prize; it\u2019s only the recognition that really counts. Perhaps a king-size candy bar?<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
