Decorate the party area with items such as black and orange balloons, streamers, spider webs or any of the countless decorations found in many of the large retail stores. To add an eerie ambiance, try lighting the room with candles and putting on a CD of Halloween organ music, which can help turn your home into a spooky haunted mansion. Decorations do not have to be expensive, so stay within a budget in order to not spend too much money (see Resources below).

Show a spooky movie. Whether you choose a classic movie like "Psycho" or "Dracula," or even a more modern film like "The Others," chances are your guests will appreciate it. If you plan on having children attend the party, show them a movie like "Casper" or "Mickey's House of Villains" in a different room with a chaperon (see Resources below).

Have a costume contest. If you would like to have guests dress up, offer a prize to the winner so they can get really creative. Prizes can be simple, such as a Halloween coffee mug filled with candy corn or a festive candle.
