It's certainly a different kind of Halloween in quarantine, but you can still celebrate this spook-tacular holiday, safely.
We've put together a list of our favorite hocus pocus for a memorable Halloween.
Make some spooky drinks
A themed cocktail can really get you in the mood. Some easy tricks like adding dry ice, garnishing with "blood" orange, or mixing it up with charcoal lemonade or a black sugar rim, can take your cocktail from every-day to spook-tacular. Here are our favorite Halloween cocktails to shake up!
Make a boo-tiful playlist
& crank it up! You can monster mash, ghostbust, and maybe even be a little sweet and a little psycho. If you don't feel like making your own playlist, Spotify can always help out. Try out this one, or this one.
Try and rank your Halloween Candy
Everyone over here has a lot of opinions on their favorite Halloween candies. Is there one candy that reigns supreme? Have everyone in your group try and rank their favorites. It's a surefire way to drum up some opinionated (and tasty) conversations!
Play the personality game (also known as celebrity), with halloween costumes
Okay, this sounds weird, but it's seriously funny. If you aren't familiar with this game, it's basically a spin on charades. This is how we play: You divide into two teams (you need at least 4 people), and you each write 10 celebrity names on 10 small pieces of paper and fold them up and put them in a bowl. In this case, it would be Halloween characters. You then split up into teams, and the first round begins. One team player goes first and the rest of their team members have 60 seconds to guess as many names as they can. You get one point per name right. Once the 60 seconds is up, it goes to the other team, and back and forth until you have gone through all the names. Then all the names go back in and you go on to round two and then three. In the first round, you can speak and say anything but the name of the person. In the second round, you can only say one word (which can be repeated, or you can act). In the third round, you can't speak at all, you can only act!
Have a monster movie marathon
Don't under estimate the fun of a scary movie marathon. Okay maybe they don't need to all be really scary, we do love Hocus Pocus and The Adams Family. But whatever your preference, there are plenty of binge-worthy flix.
However you choose to celebrate, Celebrate Wisely, and stay safe!
