Halloween Costume Party Ideas: Halloween Party Games
Trivia games are fun for
everyone, especially if they are tied to the theme
of your party. If you are having a sit down
dinner, roll up various trivia quizzes, and tie with
ribbon to match your theme colors. Set the little
bundles at each place setting. If you are serving
food buffet style, put them in a decorative basket.
We have provided a few ideas to build a trivia quiz
around, or you can come up with other creative
ideas. Think of the theme of the party crowd before
choosing a topic. Try to include trivia related to
the topic for a wide range of knowledge levels, so
no one will feel left out. Let guests know when the
answers will be read. Make the trivia quiz
challenging, and your guests will leave the party a
little wiser than they were when they arrived:
-
Sports – who holds what record in what sport, or
match famous
-
Sports figures with the correct sport. Ask a
sports fanatic to help you pull this together!
-
Inventors and Explorers – Provide a list, and
have guests try to match inventors and explorers
with their invention or discovery. Much more
difficult than you might think!
-
Music – Either have guests try to match Artists
with Song Titles, match Song Titles with the
year the song was a hit, or match Songs with the
decade they were from. Spend 45 minutes at a
music store with a pad of paper, looking at the
backs of compilation and "best of" CD's, and
you'll have enough music trivia to fill the year
2000!
-
Movie stars/Movies – Provide a list, and have
guests match as many actors/actresses with the
films they starred in, or have them try to match
movie titles with the year the movie was
released. Another fun "Hollywood" trivia game is
to see who can name the most films that have won
an Academy Award for "Best Picture".
Make a list of the
100 most influential/important people of the 20th
century. Ask guests to decide what significant
contribution each made in order to make the list.
The prize goes to the person who has all 100 or
closest to it! A great prize to award the winner of
any of these trivia games would be a trivia game,
such as Trivial Pursuit™, a subscription to a news
periodical, or a coffee table book chronicling the
20th century.
Games- any of
these games can be modified to match your Halloween
Party Theme!
