During Halloween party time, tell spooky stories. Kids of all ages love to tell and hear spooky stories. Adults do, too. Telling spooky stories uses imagination and creativity. They are best when the stories are embellished by the storyteller.
Let guests know in advance to bring their favorite spooky story. And just in case someone forgets, have a couple stories on hand so no one feels left out.
To make the stories especially scary, turn the lights down, play eerie music, and use a fog machine.
While the stories are being told, hand out spooky snacks. Witches fingers taste extra good during story telling time.
