Scary Party Games
Scary Party Games are fun for all types of ages, though is much easier to prepare and to succeed with them with children and teenagers (including scary Halloween party games) than with adults.
Above all children, followed by teens, are much more sensitive to terror and scary slumber party games. Good for you, children or teenagers! You are likely to have more fun with these kind of games.
So the challenge will be to create scare party games and to make them fun for adults too.
Scary campfire stories
You can't have a campfire inside your house, but you CAN have scary campfire stories! Get people to explain the scariest stories or adventures that they have ever experienced in their lives. The scariest narrator wins the contest.
Another possibility for scary party games would be to have a Horror Movie Trivia game, about scary movies, murderers, strange deaths and other weird "facts".
Have you watched any of
the SAW
movies?
One of you gets a mask of the puppet with the white face and red cheeks that threatens people to play his super scary games. They act like the talking puppet in the movie, talking with a low scary-threatening voice: "I want you to play a game... You have to find a key inside the apartment within 10 minutes, or one of you will die!"
Start a timer and turn off the lights. One person only has a flashlight; they are the leader, and have to find that key (which won't be anywhere!). They won't find the key, but they will spend 10 scary minutes looking for it, whilst the puppet's scary voice reminds them every so often how much time is left.
At the end, the joke is simply to tell them that the key isn't really hidden at all! People will have had a lot of fun AND some creepy shivers too.
Scary tree game for kids
First get a tree costume, or make one with lots of tree leaves and branches.
When you are almost ready to play with the kids, put the costume on and when everyone is distracted (the kids, grandparents and others), jump up and scare the heck out of them.
If it works then that means you're a great scary party planner. Also, the kids will be jumpy and easier to scare with other games!
