Trick or Treat?
Scary Hall or Entryway
The Halloween mantra: You want to host a party that will make the Dead pat your back, but you also don't want to scare your party guests half to death. What to do and what not to do? Throw some shades. This shadow-themed get-together includes just-creepy cut-outs of everything from birds and bats to witches and all you can think of. This will give you the exact eerie atmosphere that you have been wanting for your guests at the venue.
As guests enter the hall, give them something to crow about by dressing a mirror with some birds and branches stuck with glue. Creepy paper critters hanging from a ceiling add an element of surprise. For decoration, you can use some really old paintings with a tinge of eeriness. Decorate old portraits and silhouettes with hats, pitchforks, scythes, fangs, and devil horns. Crop out the perfect mantel décor, preferably with paper bats attached to swoops of black sewing with dark upholstery tacks.
The Hall - The Spooky Way
The Zombie Food
How nice it would be when you see delicious food waiting for you and right when you put your hand on it, you realize spiders web and insects already feasting on them.
To increase the scary quotient of your party and oomph it up, we recommend you redesign your food menu too.
A few things like a "Help Me!" Cake and Feather Cupcakes should do it.
The "Help Me!" cake is a white cake with a few dark twists. Start with a store-bought frosted layer cake, then cut out a pair of arms and hands in craft paper and tape to help them stand. Pile on a mound of "dirt" - crumbled chocolate - to give it that "buried alive" look. Top frosted cupcakes with edible fondant dark raven feathers. For some extra hair-raising effect, add plastic critters around the cake. Eerie right?
Put a scary spin on a favorite drink by filling syringes with grenadine. You and the guests can enjoy it as a mocktail or add some vodka for some naughty adult treat.

Get the new poison humor
The question "What's your poison?" takes on an air of knowing humor. Even your sweetener can be sinister I done the right way.
Try serving a few bone-chilling cocktails with the help of wickedly smeared labels and red poison stickers. Download the free tutorials, then do as mentioned. Give the apothecary labels a glossy dark look by covering the page with clear laminate then cut out all the designs and stick them on the bottles decanted with the beverage of any choice.
To conjure up a hauntingly gorgeous mirror like the one behind the bar, put a piece of lace fabric to glass and spray some glue, then apply Frosted Glass Finish. Relax, the finish is easy to remove later.
Wicked libations
Spooky Mirror
How nice it would be when the guests just thought the deadly hall has ended, you surprise them with a glass that reflects their deadly evil self!
Coming to the technicalities involved, reflective paint is all that you need to make this special mirror. You are free to choose any frame for the glass.
You may also consider placing the mirror behind your drinks counter to give your guests a shudder when they look at it with their red lips. Yes, Count we remember you; it’s for you.
Get Mirror Spooked!
Dark Swag
When the ungodly hour strikes, the bats come; bringing with them all the evil that’s in nature. So why not use the nature to bring out the best of your awesome party venue?
When darkness is all around, put on the cloak of swag-The Dark Swag.
For décor, use fishnet jars, flying bats and mummy themed items.
Spray paint, fishnets, and battery-operated tea lights can turn Mason jars into decorative displays at event places. The display of a flight of bats will look spooky in any room. Just use a template to cut out those creatures and stick onto your walls with double-sided tape. Don’t forget to use the darkness of the night for your best. No Halloween Party would be complete without some snake oil, Newt's eye, and raven feet. So, do remember to stuff your event venue with these.
We hope these tips, rather tricks help you in organizing the best Halloween party for your friends.
