If Halloween finds you indoors due to bad weather or you just don't feel like going out, don't worry - there are plenty of ways to spend this spooky night. Here are some ideas you can try alone, with family or friends for a real Halloween atmosphere.
Turn the house into a "haunted house"
If you want to create a spooky atmosphere, turn your house into a haunted house. Simple decorations will give a lot of effect: lights in dark colors like black and purple, some scary toys, some scary dolls and of course, a playlist of typical Halloween music to get you in the mood.
Decorate pumpkins
It's never too late to decorate pumpkins, even on Halloween night. If you want something simple, you can paint the pumpkins without the mess that carving causes. If you have the patience, you can carve a classic jack-o'-lantern for a Halloween look.
Organize a fun evening
Game night is always a fun idea, especially for Halloween. You can play card games, word games or create a puzzle to be solved. Create a spooky search around the house or garden and distribute the "treasure" with some small sweets to the winners.
Invite friends for a Halloween party
Turn your house into a real Halloween party. You don't need much - just some sweets, drinks and a playlist to get you into the festive atmosphere. Invite your friends over, tell them to dress up if they want, and spend the night dancing. You can make the party more suitable for children or organize a party for adults.
Get back into character with makeup
Even if you don't like the clothes, you can get into the atmosphere by creating a scary look with makeup. Pick up makeup products and transform into a zombie, vampire, witch or other character. If you prefer something lighter, you can choose sweeter looks like a mermaid, a fairy or a simple clown. A little creativity and a few simple instructions can help you create an impressive look.
Cook "scary" foods
Halloween is the perfect day to experiment with creative, holiday-inspired recipes. Bone-shaped breadsticks and mummy-wrapped hotdogs might be some ideas. Turn the dinner table into a real Halloween feast and have fun enjoying your spooky creations.
With these ideas, you can have a fun Halloween at home just as much as anywhere else!
