Halloween trivia can be fun for all ages, and the best part is that it's not too active so costumes won't get in the way. Use subjects like Halloween history, horror movies, vampires, monsters and witches and create trivia cards. Then divide your guests into teams and play.

Games like "Pictionary" can be adapted to a Halloween theme. Set up two large pads of paper on easels and make up cards with words or phrases related to Halloween to be drawn. Divide your guests into two teams and have them take turns drawing the clues on the cards, and their teams must guess what the picture is.

Adapt favorite party games for Halloween for kids' parties. Try Pin the Grin on the Pumpkin, ring toss with witches' hats for posts, relay races with Halloween props, or even bobbing for apples.
