Coolest Halloween Party Ideas For Teenagers
Too old for ghosts in white sheets? Take terror to the next level with these Halloween party ideas for teenagers!
Make Sure Your Digs Are Spooky!
For a killer Halloween party, the first thing you gotta do is set your scene. The cheapest and easiest way to do this is to light lots and lots of candles. This creates an eerie ambience of flickering light and moving shadows.
Next, put out a few well-placed props. Drape your furniture in black, gray and blood red sheets, or use any dark or gauzy material you can find. Most costume shops, drugstores and dollar stores sell packages of fake cobwebs to stretch out in corners, in door-frames and over furniture. 'Bloody' knives, scythes, scary masks, rubber rats and spiders, dismembered body parts and signature props from scary movies (Jason's goalie mask, Freddy's fedora, Candyman's hook hand) can be found at Halloween shops, or use your imagination to build your own Halloween party props!
If you have a guest list, 'build' a tombstone for each guest. Cut out pieces of cardboard into tombstone shapes, spray paint them gray, 'age' them with a few light sprays of black spray paint and write a funny or fearsome epitaph for each of your friends. It's scary to see your own tombstone!
Once your Halloween party house looks scary it's time to make it sound scary, too. Look for free downloads, or borrow your friends' music collections to compile a spooky Halloween party soundtrack.
There are hundreds of songs to suit your Halloween theme. Here are just a few suggestions (warning, these are not your parents' Halloween pop classics!):
1. The "Halloween" theme song (teenagers love Rob Zombie's 2007 version)
2. "People Are Strange" by the Doors
3. "Psycho Killer" by the Talking Heads
4. "Waltz in Black" by the Stranglers
5. "Bela Lugosi's Dead" by Bauhaus
6. "Let There Be More Darkness" by Robyn Hitchcock
7. "Teenagers" by My Chemical Romance
Pumpkin Carving Contest
One reason this is such a great Halloween party idea for teenagers is teens love to make a mess! Be sure to hold your contest in a room with floors you can mop, away from the good furniture! For easy cleanup, line your work area with newspapers!
1. Here's what you'll need: enough pumpkins that each guest or pair of guests can carve one; tablespoons; as many fine felt markers (or pens) and paring knives as you can 'scare' up; 2-3 large bowls (for pumpkin 'guts'); tea lights or short candles.
2. Draw circles around your pumpkin stems, large enough for your hand to fit through when the holes are cut. Cut along the edge of each circle, making sure to angle your cut so that the 'lids' will not fall through the holes.
3. Using tablespoons, scrape out the pumpkin seeds and guts, putting them into the bowls provided.
4. Let your guests draw and cut out whatever designs they want for their Jack o' Lanterns.
5. Once everyone is finished, place candles into the Jack o' Lanterns and light them. Vote for the scariest, most original and best-made Jack o' Lanterns. Be sure to have some small prizes ready for the winners!
Once your pumpkins are gutted, rinse the pulp and juice from the pumpkin seeds. Toss the seeds in a little cooking oil (olive or canola oil works well). Season the seeds with salt, pepper, paprika or your favorite spice, and spread them out on a baking sheet. Bake the seeds at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-40 minutes, stirring every ten minutes or so.
This is a great idea for a party snack later on, when you're all curled up to watch a scary movie together - the perfect end to a perfect Halloween party!

Halloween Party for "Tween"agers
Your kids are too old for trick-or-treating but still young enough to enjoy all the fun and commotion of Halloween. What to do? Help them plan a party that will combine the best of Halloween: crazy costumes and lots of goodies.
First, pick a date for the event. A school night isn't the best choice so pick a Friday or Saturday as close to Halloween as possible. Decide just how long the party is going to last. Three hours is a good length of time: enough time to eat and have some crazy games but not so long that kids will get restless and start making up their own entertainment!
Invitations can be as simple as e-mail or you can pick up some at the local store. There are also some great on-line resources that will print right on your own home computer. Whatever the choice, keep track of how many invitations are going out. You need to supervise your teen on this or you may end up with the entire 8th grade class at your house!
Help your teen choose a menu. Favorite foods can be "doctored" up to become Halloween specialties. Pizza can be made "moldy" by adding a bit of extra mozzarella that has been colored with green food coloring. Local bakeries have all kinds of spooky desserts: orange and black cupcakes, spider cookies, etc. Carrot sticks continue the orange color scheme and are even better paired with a green "slimy" dip. Add a little extra green food coloring to a sour-cream and onion dip for a little "slime". Be creative. Most kids don't have any difficulty coming up with "gross" food ideas.
To keep beverages simple, go for canned soft drinks. Fill up a wheelbarrow or metal washtub with ice and submerge the cans. To add a squeal factor to retrieving a drink, here's a couple of ideas: Toss cooked spaghetti in with the ice cubes; individual grapes submerged in the ice; if you are lucky enough to have a fake hand - submerge it in the ice. Again, your teen will be a great source of amusing ideas.
Decorate!! If the weather is cooperating, use your backyard and go as wild as your budget will allow. Instead of buying a bunch of throw-away stuff, think about reusable things. After all, you know this is going to be hit and will be repeated next year. Craft stores have inexpensive Halloween fabric that can be made cut into lengths to cover the picnic table. Don't spend a lot on paper plates that probably won't be used anyway. Rolls of paper towels or Halloween napkins should be adequate. Strings of Halloween lights are now available at all discount stores. These are cool hung in the trees or off of the deck and even the shrubs. Bales of straw are cheap and provide atmosphere and seating. Take some old clothes and make a scare-crow. Stuff it with leaves or straw.
And of course no Halloween party is complete without pumpkins! Have some carved ones displayed for decoration. One idea is to have the guests each bring a carved pumpkin (or squash of their choice) to the party. Provide small tea lights or, to be safer, get a bunch of those glow-sticks and light up their handiwork. Don't forget the Halloween music!
There is an abundance of party game resources available. For a minimum amount of money, you can purchase and print games directly from on-line party game sites. There are also lots of free party game ideas on-line also. Make sure your teen is finding age-appropriate ones! They may sound corny but the old fashioned sack races and three-legged races are still a blast.
When the party starts breaking up, have your young host pass out a small party favor to show appreciation to his/her guests for attending. This could be candy bars (not the bite-sized ones), glow-in-the-dark anything. Or try some cool personalized favors. These are actually easy to find on-line and come right to your house within a week of ordering them. Party favors are just a nice finishing touch to any planned party.

Gross Halloween Party Game: Feeling Witch Or Wizard Body Parts
Here's a relatively simple yet fun Halloween party game that uses the power of suggestion to make it gross. Kids absolutely love this, because their vivid imaginations make it easy to believe it's real. Basically, you have to touch witch or wizard body parts. Here's how.
Use some kind of a story, like how you were walking around in the dark last night, and you looked up and saw a witch or wizard, flying on a broomstick. The next thing you knew, she was flying erratically, making zigzag patterns in the sky.
Suddenly, you saw her plummet down to the ground and crash. You ran over to her and discovered she was already dead. So you chopped her into little pieces and put the body parts in boxes (or bags.)
"Now you get to stick your hand in the boxes and feel her body parts. You'll have to tell me what you feel. Maybe you'll be lucky, and only touch her hair. Maybe you'll feel her heart. Or maybe you'll get a squishy, wet eyeball!"
To set up the game, you'll need several bags, boxes, or containers that you cannot see through. Inside each box or bag, put a different "body part." Make some of them dry, some of them wet, some hard, some soft, and definitely have something smooshy and disgusting.
Cut holes in the sides large enough to stick a hand through, but not large enough to see into. If you're using bags, gather the opening together and tie a piece of yarn or string so that it can only be opened partway, enough to stick a hand inside.
Here are ideas for what to use for different body parts:
Eyeballs--grapes, canned lychee fruits, olives, cocktail onions
Brains--boiled head of cabbage or cauliflower, or a gelatin mold
Guts--canned tomatoes, cooked spiral pasta, the "guts" from a pumpkin jack-o-lantern
Fingers--small sausages, baby carrots
Hair--steel wool, corn silk, yarn
Skin--fruit leather, tortillas, limp cabbage leaves
Heart--pudding or applesauce in a plastic bag, whole stewed tomato
Blood--chocolate syrup, corn syrup, maple syrup
Fingernails--seeds from pistachio nuts, sunflower seeds, or pumpkin seeds
Noses--avocado, mushrooms
Mystery part--tofu
This gross Halloween party game will be a hit with your little goblins this holiday. Part of the fun is just getting messy. Kids love to get their hands dirty, and when they can do so without being scolded, they take full advantage. Also, thinking something wet and mushy might be blood and guts makes them think it might really be true, even though a part of them knows it's just pretending, and not really feeling wizard brains.

Halloween Quinceanera Or Sweet Sixteen Party
Is your child, yourself, or your whole family just in love with the Halloween theme of monsters and dress up? Were they born around that time of year, or just want a big blow out bash to make everything appear haunting- so why not let them? There are tons of ways to make a halloween party into a spilled over bash of a Mis Quinceanera or Sweet Sixteen. There are hardly any limits with the way this party could turn out, though there is a new [flesh eating] craze that may give you a few ideas.
Zombies. Now this doesn't mean that the whole party has to go around the theme of a flesh eating virus that strikes down the people who have become infected into the living dead, but it could be a fun way to end the night! Hiring a group of young adults in college or even some of your teenagers friends to dress up like a zombie is easy, and making it into a game for the birthday teen is as well. After all the festivities are said and done, you could announce that there are 'loaded guns' under the chairs, which are infact just water guns with red dye in the water. After the group of party goers grab their weapons, you say there are zombies on the lose and the people you hired enter the room wearing white plain tees. Once the zombies get hit with the red dyed water, they're out of the game- but not to worry, these flesh eating monsters can 'infect' one of the party goers!
Chances are that a ballroom manager will not allow such things to take place in their rooms, but that's not the issue, who says it can't be an outside party in a park, your backyard, or even on the beach. So location needs to be figured out way before the actual party is going to be happening, and if it is happening outdoors remember to check the weather and different tents that you made need to provide shelter for the party goers. Though don't think that this Halloween Mis Quince or Sweet Sixteen is limited to zombies, since that's only the tip of the iceberg. Vampires, mummies, and classic monsters in general are all a blank canvas waiting for you and your teen to open the Pandoras Box to set those ideas free.
Now you're probably wondering what would you do for decorations, gifts, and food for the party- since you want to keep the theme alive throughout the whole time and the guests interested. Jack-o-lanterns could be the center pieces to a table, with some black and orange flowers or leaves to spice it up, glasses could be goblets, plates looking old and cracked. The cake could be a tombstone, haunted house, mummy, or even body parts. Creative cake designers eat this stuff up since they get to explore every haunting idea that could possibly come to mind. Party favors may be getting to the tricky part of this Halloween Mis Quince or Sweet Sixteen, though you could always hire a camera man for the evening and have him take photos for everyone then insert into a photo frame for the guests. You shouldn't worry about dinner though, that could be kept to a regular course to save your your guests from getting to into the Halloween theme.
The Halloween theme isn't limited to Mis Quinceanera or Sweet Sixteens, it could be for a wedding if the groom and bride to be are obsessed with Halloween [or things that just go bump in the night], or even a 'Becoming 21'. Halloween is not for the weak of heart, but for those who can handle it, it's a nightmare come true!

Halloween Party for "Tween"agers
Your kids are too old for trick-or-treating but still young enough to enjoy all the fun and commotion of Halloween. What to do? Help them plan a party that will combine the best of Halloween: crazy costumes and lots of goodies.
First, pick a date for the event. A school night isn't the best choice so pick a Friday or Saturday as close to Halloween as possible. Decide just how long the party is going to last. Three hours is a good length of time: enough time to eat and have some crazy games but not so long that kids will get restless and start making up their own entertainment!
Invitations can be as simple as e-mail or you can pick up some at the local store. There are also some great on-line resources that will print right on your own home computer. Whatever the choice, keep track of how many invitations are going out. You need to supervise your teen on this or you may end up with the entire 8th grade class at your house!
Help your teen choose a menu. Favorite foods can be "doctored" up to become Halloween specialties. Pizza can be made "moldy" by adding a bit of extra mozzarella that has been colored with green food coloring. Local bakeries have all kinds of spooky desserts: orange and black cupcakes, spider cookies, etc. Carrot sticks continue the orange color scheme and are even better paired with a green "slimy" dip. Add a little extra green food coloring to a sour-cream and onion dip for a little "slime". Be creative. Most kids don't have any difficulty coming up with "gross" food ideas.
To keep beverages simple, go for canned soft drinks. Fill up a wheelbarrow or metal washtub with ice and submerge the cans. To add a squeal factor to retrieving a drink, here's a couple of ideas: Toss cooked spaghetti in with the ice cubes; individual grapes submerged in the ice; if you are lucky enough to have a fake hand - submerge it in the ice. Again, your teen will be a great source of amusing ideas.
Decorate!! If the weather is cooperating, use your backyard and go as wild as your budget will allow. Instead of buying a bunch of throw-away stuff, think about reusable things. After all, you know this is going to be hit and will be repeated next year. Craft stores have inexpensive Halloween fabric that can be made cut into lengths to cover the picnic table. Don't spend a lot on paper plates that probably won't be used anyway. Rolls of paper towels or Halloween napkins should be adequate. Strings of Halloween lights are now available at all discount stores. These are cool hung in the trees or off of the deck and even the shrubs. Bales of straw are cheap and provide atmosphere and seating. Take some old clothes and make a scare-crow. Stuff it with leaves or straw.
And of course no Halloween party is complete without pumpkins! Have some carved ones displayed for decoration. One idea is to have the guests each bring a carved pumpkin (or squash of their choice) to the party. Provide small tea lights or, to be safer, get a bunch of those glow-sticks and light up their handiwork. Don't forget the Halloween music!
There is an abundance of party game resources available. For a minimum amount of money, you can purchase and print games directly from on-line party game sites. There are also lots of free party game ideas on-line also. Make sure your teen is finding age-appropriate ones! They may sound corny but the old fashioned sack races and three-legged races are still a blast.
When the party starts breaking up, have your young host pass out a small party favor to show appreciation to his/her guests for attending. This could be candy bars (not the bite-sized ones), glow-in-the-dark anything. Or try some cool personalized favors. These are actually easy to find on-line and come right to your house within a week of ordering them. Party favors are just a nice finishing touch to any planned party.

Adult Halloween Games To Liven Up Your Halloween Party
Halloween isn't just for kids anymore. Plenty of adults celebrate the day as well. Halloween parties are a common event for many adults these days. If you're planning a party of your own, here are some fun adult Halloween games to liven it up.
Photo Scavenger Hunt
The object of a photo scavenger hunt is to get pictures of all the items using a digital camera or a Polaroid camera so the pictures can be judged right away.
Break your guests up into several small groups and give each of them a list of items they have to find. They can all get the same items or you can make each one different if you don't want them tripping over one another in their search.
They head out on foot or by car to find the items and take pictures of themselves with each one. I like to make them find someone to take their picture if possible - if the whole group isn't in each one, they get penalized.
You can choose the winner by the first team to finish, the team with the most creative pictures or whatever criteria you want.
Make the scavenger hunt items fit the theme of your party. You could use a tombstone, a hockey mask, red paint or a horror movie poster for example.
Pumpkin Bowling
This one is fun for any age, really, but adults can have a lot of fun with it.
Partially fill ten 2 liter pop bottles with water to weight them down, then decorate them to fit the theme of your party.
Set them up in the standard 10 pin layout.
Have your guests "bowl" with pumpkins. The smaller gourds usually work best, or at least smaller pumpkins. Round ones tend to roll better but the ones that aren't as perfect make the game a lot more challenging.
Pumpkin Carving
A lot of people have switched to painting pumpkins rather than carving, both for safety and for longer lasting jack-o-lanterns. But carving is still the best in my opinion. There's nothing that says Halloween like the light of a candle flickering through the face of a pumpkin.
You can buy carving kits at most craft and hobby stores around Halloween, with small tools for more detailed carving.
They usually come with stencils as well but for this game you'll probably want to leave it up to your guests to do freestyle.
You can judge the game in several ways - the first to finish their pumpkin, the most creative (in your judgement or the entire group's), the scariest, etc.
And there are plenty of children's games that are just as much fun for adults - bobbing for apples, Twister, musical chairs, etc. Don't worry about whether it's a "mature" thing to do - just worry about whether your guests enjoy themselves!
