Any inexpensive ideas for a Halloween party for a bunch of 13 year olds? |
|
My bestest friend is letting her daughter have a Halloween party but doesn't have a lot of money to spend on 'stuff'
Any ideas?

5. Amish Barn Raising theme party |
|
They can all wear beards and tell farming jokes.
Examples:
What did the english farmer say when his cow died? Never done that before.
What did the english farmer name his heifer? Sanka, she wasn't caffeinated.

6. Lock them in a dark room and bring one of them out at a time for torture. |
|

8. Supply apples and razor blades & tell them to make their own. |

Horror films, snacks and no parents.

http://www.101halloweenideas.com/halloween_ideas_01.htmlAt the bottom of the first page, there's another link titled (appropriately enough) "Halloween Links". That takes you to a page with access to lots of other Halloween sites, in addition to the 101 ideas on the first one. Hope it helps... I'm in the same boat as your friend!! :)

- Movie marathon with concession stand food (popcorn, hotdogs, candy, etc.). I'd recommend more of a comedy/horror movie than a pure slasher film. Maybe Beetlejuice or Lost Boys or Rocky Horror. Depends on the kids.
- Silly games with a Halloween theme - charades, etc.
- Build your own gross (but not sickening) food station - gummy worms, crushed oreos for dirt, red frosting for blood, etc.

15. A walk through the local cemetary? |
|
Scary dvd's afterwords. Maybe have dad get a hockey mask and chase the kids around the yard with a chain saw?
Make sure the kids bring a change of clothing! At least the lower portion!

18. Gross out guessing games & scary movies |
|
a bowl of cold peeled grapes - in the dark and after scary movies do feel like eyeballs.
a bowl of cold spaghetti noodles feels like brains in a bowl.
Lots of other things to do - scary stories, I'd watch Halloween, Terror Train, maybe some old Creature Features if they can be found.

19. Kids that age don't drink that much |
|
When I was thirteen I'd throw up after five beers. Just spring for a few cases or a keg.
