Halloween Theme Party Ideas - Halloween Vampires &
Villains
Subscribe to Our Site 
A new twist to an old
tradition. Have your Halloween guests come dressed as their
preferred villain-turned-vampire. Watch as the ensuing hilarity
turns your Halloween party into the year’s most successful
bash. Can you imagine what Hitler would have been like if he
turned into a vampire? Or maybe that’s why Jeffrey Dahmer ate
his unwilling victims. When you send out invitations, ask them
a question: Which real-life villain would have been great as a
vampire? Then ask them to dress accordingly.
You could dress up as one,
too. But being the hostess of your own Halloween party, maybe
you would do well by just being Elvira, Mistress of the Dark.
But if you are not so inclined, maybe Vincent Price would do
the trick.
Stage larger-than-usual
tombstones on your front lawn. Then have a volunteer (in a dark
costume of course), hide behind them to greet your victims, I
mean Guests for the evening. They would not be easily seen
until the person is right on them, allowing them to jump out
and maximizing the scare effect.
Hang cardboard cutouts of
mummies wrapped in toilet paper near your windows. Make it
appear as though they are trying to escape from your house. The
light color of the toilet paper will make it visible from
outside your house even with minimal lighting.
Make your own Halloween wreath
and hang it outside your door, instead of hanging the tired and
time tested neon plastic skeleton. Gather some old dried twigs
and bundle them into a good sized circle and tie them together
with straw or string. Spray paint it in an orange color and
allow it to dry. Glue Plastic spider, miniature plastic skulls,
or even tie Halloween ribbons around it to make it more
festive.
Have ready a select number of
horror films for a long night of film viewing. A must-see of
course is the Halloween Series, but do not neglect the classics
either like the original Dracula and Frankenstein, for
example.
Fill the inside of your party
area with cardboard coffins. You can easily do this with the
help of a few generous friends. Give them the liberty of
designing their creation as they like, giving a creative and
varied look to you décor. Make your own table centerpiece
easily with a design appropriate to your theme. You could make
a mini graveyard centerpiece with paper mache, poster paint and
lots of imagination.
Make sure you decorate with
mainly with black cloth. Orange streamers would add a punch of
zesty appeal without blinding you with a blast of wayward
color. Use white candles for that uber spooky effect; just make
sure you keep them from flammable decorations and other items
that can catch easily fire such as clothing, books, paper or
curtains.
Use cut sections of tree
trunks or thick limbs as your Jack O’ Lantern stand. Fill vases
with old withered flowers and dried out leaves and bare
branches for that ultimate decadent look. Use black ribbons to
tie your flower arrangements together.
