Boozy Fun: Creative Halloween Drinking Games for a Frightfully Good Time
Halloween is not just about spooky costumes and scary movies—it’s also a perfect opportunity to enjoy some creative and fun drinking games with friends. Whether you’re hosting a Halloween party or just looking for some spirited fun, these drinking games will add an extra layer of excitement to your celebration. Here are some of the best Halloween drinking games to get the party started!
1. Halloween Bingo
Bingo is a classic game that gets a Halloween twist with themed cards. Create bingo cards with Halloween-related items like ghosts, witches, and jack-o’-lanterns. Every time someone mentions or sees one of these items, mark it on your card. When you get a bingo, everyone else takes a sip!
2. Monster Movie Drinking Game
Pick a classic Halloween movie and create a list of common horror tropes or actions. For example, take a sip every time someone says “boo,” a character makes a dumb decision, or there’s a jump scare. It’s a great way to enjoy a movie while keeping the drinks flowing!
3. Pumpkin Pong
Just like beer pong, but with a Halloween twist! Set up cups in a triangular formation and fill them with your favorite drinks. Instead of using ping pong balls, use small orange balls or even mini pumpkins. Try to get the balls into the cups and make your opponents drink when you score!
4. Witch’s Brew Challenge
Create a spooky concoction of cocktails or mocktails and have a taste test challenge. Have each guest try different “witch’s brews” and rate them. The person who made the least favorite brew has to take a drink of the winner’s concoction. It’s a fun way to taste some creative Halloween drinks!
5. Haunted Karaoke
Set up a karaoke machine and choose Halloween-themed songs. Every time someone performs a song, everyone else has to take a sip. Bonus points for dressing up in spooky costumes while you sing. It’s a fun way to combine music and drinks for a lively Halloween party!
6. Spooky Charades
Play a Halloween-themed version of charades. Write down Halloween-related phrases or characters on slips of paper. When it’s your turn to act, if your team fails to guess correctly within a time limit, everyone takes a sip. It’s a fun and interactive way to enjoy drinks and laughs!
7. Zombie Apocalypse
In this game, everyone pretends to be a zombie. When a designated “human” tries to survive the apocalypse, zombies will try to tag them. If a zombie tags someone, both the zombie and the tagged person have to take a drink. It’s a lively game that will keep everyone moving!
8. Ghost Stories and Shots
Share spooky ghost stories around the room. Every time someone tells a particularly chilling part or your group hears a scary noise, everyone takes a shot or sip. It’s a perfect way to mix storytelling with drinking, setting a truly haunting mood for the night.
9. Costume Contest Drinking Game
Hold a costume contest and have everyone vote for their favorite outfits. Each person who gets a vote has to take a drink. If someone wins a special category (like “most creative” or “scariest”), everyone else takes a sip in their honor. It’s a great way to celebrate everyone’s costumes!
10. Trick-or-Treat Shots
Prepare a selection of shots with different flavors and label them with Halloween-themed names. Guests take turns picking a shot based on the label and must drink it. If they pick a “trick” shot (a more intense flavor or ingredient), they get a special challenge or punishment!
11. Spooky Spin the Bottle
A Halloween twist on the classic spin the bottle game. Instead of a simple kiss, have spooky dares or challenges that involve taking a drink. For example, if the bottle points to someone, they might have to act like a ghost for a minute or take a drink. It adds a fun and spooky element to the game.
Conclusion
With these creative Halloween drinking games, you’re sure to have a frightfully good time at your Halloween party. From spooky charades to monster movie challenges, these games add an extra layer of fun and excitement to your festivities. So grab your favorite drinks, gather your friends, and enjoy a Halloween night filled with laughter and cheers!
