Outdoor Halloween Party Ideas
Halloween is creeping up on us this year! Hosting a backyard Halloween party is a great way to soak up fall in KC. No matter what theme you’re going for, there are a few essentials you need to have to prepare your outdoor living space or deck. Here’s the York Companies team’s pro tips & outdoor Halloween party ideas:
Spooky movie night
A movie night is perfect to entertain guests of all ages; whether you’re going for Saw or Scooby Doo! Simply bring out a projector and sheet to your backyard, set up some chairs, couches, or floor pillows, and enjoy the film. Don’t forget to provide lots of blankets and offer a fire pit circle for guests to keep warm and cook up s’mores and other goodies. For the grown-ups, you can also set up a decorative bar with a wooden crate, spider webs, and old-fashioned lamps. Serve up some festive cocktails in fun cups and watch your guests melt.
Kid-friendly activities
There are countless activity and decoration ideas for kids (and kids at heart!) to celebrate Halloween. A classic is to set up a pumpkin-carving competition—an outdoor kitchen is ideal for this ???? Most importantly don’t forget about putting out lots of candy trays and try out some halloween desserts like Halloween cupcakes or mummy cookies!
