Instructions

Step 1

Invite several of your closest horror movie loving friends to your horror movie night. No horror movie party would be complete without guests to scare!
Step 2

Rent several spooky movies for guests to choose from. Here are some suggestions to get you started: "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre," "Halloween," "Wrong Turn," "The Exorcist," and "Jaws." These are all favorites that are sure to get people jumping out of their skin.
Step 3

Make several snacks to feed the masses! What is a great horror movie without snacks to munch on? You must provide this as well as everyone's favorite beverages.
Step 4

Keep the lights down low during the movie. This will add to the ambiance of your horror movie party. There is nothing like the dark to get people spooked.
Step 5

Turn off all distractions such as phones and pagers. The less interruptions the better to keep the movie flowing and scaring your guests.
Step 6

Set up a little spook for your guests. Pay a neighbor to break in on the party in costume, or have some kind of jolt in store for your guests. (Just be sure to be safe about it.)
