Halloween Party Food
Halloween celebration finger food, literally. Form flavorful cookie dough into creepy witch fingers and use a blanched almond for the fingernail. It’s sure to frighten your guests into a celebratory mood! Cover your table with a dark linen. Adorn the table with place cards made out of store bought mini sculls or gravestones. You will be surprised what you can find in your local shops a lot of festive and budget-friendly accessories. Scatter fall foliage on your table and dine by candlelight by lighting your area with candles and do-it-yourself jack-o-lanterns in different shapes and sizes. For a more unique look to your pumpkins, you can spray paint the jack-o-lanterns black, gold or red.
Purchase ‘creepy cloth’ in black and gray and use it to drape over furniture, pictures, mantels, chandeliers, etc. to make a feeling of a haunted house! It is just cheesecloth specially colored and shredded, and you could probably create it yourself if you have the time and energy! Visit a Halloween store or online retailer to buy some effects like body parts, creatures, “Goretraits” (pictures that move when you walk past) and other fun Halloween items. Move out everyday knick-knacks and substitute with creepier decor, like a huge rubber insect peeking out from a pile of books, or a jar filled with eyeballs and green goo.
