Adult Halloween Games
Who says Halloween is just for youngsters? Halloween is, of course, a time for trick-or-treating, and mom and dad certainly can’t go out begging in the streets for candy, but the holiday can also be a neat time for some full-grown fun.
If you are planning a Halloween party for grown-ups, you will want to have some adult Halloween games on hand. It is all part of the fun.
Some great adult Halloween games include:
About the Town – This is a scavenger hunt. All you require to do is produce a list of Halloween-related items, pass out the list to each team, and send them on their way to collect the items. Some great objects to put on the list include:
A Hangman’s noose
A black veil
An obit
You get the idea. Just let in items that make to do with being frightened, spooks, Halloween, or whatever.
You might try a variation on the hunt, too. One distinguished one is to make the hunt a video scavenger hunt. Each squad starts off with video camera in hand (or cell phone with a camera or whatever) and shoots the items rather than actually bringing the items back with them. This is truly cool because you can make the list of items include really large stuff and potentially scary things like headstones. For a further variation, you can have the list be exclusively things like: Superman, a clown, a pirate, a fairy princess, a wolfman, a vampire, and so on. That would mean the adult Halloween games would admit the youngsters via taking video of trick-or-treaters who are all dressed up.
Halloween Fortune Telling – In this game, your guests put their knowledge of one another to the test and get to know each other better.
Just hand out slips of paper and a pencil to each guest. Each individual then chooses a person at the party (maybe even himself or herself), but doesn’t tell anyone who it is. Then, everyone compose a “fortune” for that person, folds it, and sets it into the fishbowl. You can let everyone write one or several; that’s up to you.
And Then, each guest pulls out a slip of paper and reads the fortune. He then attempts to guess which person composed the fortune and which person the fortune is about.
Some examples of fortunes might be:
“This person will get arrested doing something illegal and spend the nighttime in jail.”
“This person will wed someone from a foreign country.”
“This person will cease his job and purchase a Corvette when he turns fifty.”
“This person will adopt a youngster.”
“This person will become Chairperson of the PTA.”
You get the idea. Each person who correctly guesses acquires a humble prize, and this game is a wonderful way to get conversations initiated at your Halloween bash.
A really cool variation of this game is to let each guest put their name on a piece of paper and cast into the bowl. And Then have each guest draw a name from the bowl and get the one who drew the name make up a scary story about the name drawn. Then have the other guest conjecture who the scary story is about.
As you can discover adult games can be a lot of fun and the types of games can be endless. It just takes a minuscule planning to come up with adult Halloween games.
