Fun, scares, and parties are all part of Halloween. When planning a Halloween party for kids or adults, or a mix of both, it can be challenging to find games that will please all ages. But fear not, we’ve got you covered.
Whether you’re 8 or 80, here are some fall party games for everyone. And don’t worry, these fall festival games won’t require any advanced mathematical skills or a degree in rocket science. Just bring a good prize and lots of laughter!
Don’t forget to invite all the witches and warlocks – they’ll be sure to be the life of the party!
Fall Festival Games
Gather your friends and get ready for some fun. From classic games like apple bobbing to more modern ones like pumpkin carving, there are plenty of ways to celebrate fall.
Get creative and have a blast! And don’t forget about the snacks – because what goes better with fall than a good old-fashioned pumpkin pie?
Witch on a Broomstick
Get out your broomsticks and your magic wands, because tonight’s the night for witches and wizards! Broomstick races are one of the most fun and easy fall festival games.
The goal of the game is to be the first player to cross the finish line. Players take turns riding on broomsticks and try to stay balanced as they make their way across the finish line. The first player to cross wins.
To add an extra challenge, witches and wizards can cast spells to slow down or speed their opponents. After all, nothing says “fall” like a good old fashioned game of “Witch on a Broomstick!”
Taking part in the harvest festival activity is a fun way to get kids involved in Halloween festivities and also helps to teach the importance of exercise. It can also help develop creativity and problem-solving skills as players come up with strategies to reach the finish line first.
Fall Prizes are awarded for the fastest, furthest, and most creative flights.
How to Play the Mummy Wrap Game
At a fall party, the Mummy Wrap is one classic game that never fails to entertain. In order to play the Mummy wrap game, participants should be divided into pairs and given one roll of toilet paper each. In each pair, one person becomes the mummy while the other becomes the wrapper.
The goal is to see who can wrap their mummy partner in toilet paper the fastest. The result is always a hilarious sight, with mummies stumbling around in layers of TP. So, if you’re looking for a fun way to get your friends together, give Mummy Wrap a try!
Fun Tip!

Spider Race Halloween Game
Taking spider Halloween games to the next level with this fun Spider Web Toss Game. For example, the goal of the game is to toss the spiders from their webs and land them safely in a bucket. The game is easy to set up and can be played almost anywhere.
Players can also use their creativity to come up with their own rules, such as who can toss the spiders the farthest or who can toss them the most times in a row.
The game is a great way to encourage collaboration and sportsmanship. It also encourages players to practice their fine motor skills as they toss the spiders.
Finally, it is a great way to have fun and bond with your friends and family. Just don’t forget to count the spiders before playing, or you might end up with a lot more than you bargained for!
Spiderweb Toss: A Spooky Game
Another spider race game that brings laughs is Spooky Spiderweb Toss. Don’t worry, the spiders won’t be real – just pretend!
Create a large spider web using yarn or string and hang it across a room. Place plastic spiders or spider toys at various distances from the web. Participants take turns throwing spiders into the web, aiming to get as many spiders caught as possible.
This fall party game not only tests accuracy but also inspires cheers and groans as spiders miss their mark or get tangled in the web. The player who has the most spiders in the web after everyone has had a turn wins.
You’ll need a bit of luck and some strategy to win this fun indoor throwing game.
Zombie Tag
For a more active game, try Zombie Tag. Designate one person as the “zombie” and the rest as the “survivors.” The zombie’s goal is to tag the survivors and turn them into zombies as well.
The catch is that the survivors can only move by hopping on one foot, making it a challenge to avoid the zombie’s clutches. The game continues until all survivors have been turned into zombies or until a time limit is reached.
Players can also use obstacles like chairs and tables to create barriers between them and the zombie. The goal of the survivors is to last as long as possible and to avoid being tagged by the zombie. It’s a great game for large groups and can be played inside or outside.
It’s a thrilling and energetic game that will have everyone on their toes.

What you will need is a large box, a pair of sandals, tape, Balls, Scissors, and a Black Marker!
Tip: Another suggestion instead of sandals use an empty tissue box and hot glue that to the cardboard.
The best part about this Minute To Win It game is you can choose to play it indoor or outdoor. It could be used for a fall party game, at a carnival or festival, at a PTO party, vacation bible school, Girl Scout or Scouts camp, or even played in your backyard!
First, cut 2 feet long feet out of cardboard! I added this tape here to the toenails.
Next added the plastic balls (from a ball pit) to the tape on the big toes. For each new player, we added new tape. It worked well for us.
How to Play:
Each player has the same starting and stopping point. Player 1 will go to the start line. He or She will put the sandals on. After the whistle blows. Player 1 will walk as fast or funny as they can within a minute or five minutes for a farther finish line.
Each participant will need to keep as many balls on their feet as possible. The person with the most remaining balls on their big toes at the end of the game will win.

Easy Halloween Game Ideas
Fear not, this Pumpkin Drop Game will get your heart racing! The goal of this activity is to protect the “pumpkin” from falling. What you will need is Ball Pit Balls (Great Deal here!) Black Marker, Green Glitter Foam Art Sheets, Empty Toilet Paper Rolls, and Witch Nails.
How to Play:
You could play this game with one or two players (more is optional). What you will need to do is pick a starting and ending point. The competitors will have one minute or five minutes on the clock.
Allow the players to move from the starting point to the finish line as fast as they want as long as they keep the pumpkins on the toilet paper rolls. If the pumpkin drops they have to start all over again. And no cheating lol, if they try to use any portion of their body or the other pumpkin in their opposite hand they have to start over as well.
It can be tricky but it is a lot of fun to play. The person that can make it across to the finish line with their pumpkins still on the holders and with the fastest time will win.
