The Chronic 2001 $5.97 Despite the number of guests on hand, Dr. Dre's decade-/century-/millennium-ending sequel to The Chronic is, like its predecessor, less a stack of posse cuts and more an elegantly seamless work from West Coast hip-hop's premier auteur. Deliberately cinematic in everything from its mix of moods to dramatic musical surges, 2001 is Dre's assessment of the gangsta life in medium shots. No longer fully...

Adult Halloween Activities for a Scary Good Time

Once you have your Halloween party foods and decorations all planned and ready, you will also need to plan some creepy, scary Halloween activities. The activities are what the party guests will best remember, so you will want to plan some really cool things to do. There are many really fun, yet scary activities that adults can do at a Halloween party. Here are a few Halloween activities that your guest will rave about.

The Haunted House
Most of your adult Halloween guests will admit that they have not been to a haunted house in many years. Therefore, you can turn your home into a haunted house that they can walk through and get the scare of their lives. You can even set up a Halloween walk through in the woods near your home or through your backyard. Having some form of haunted house or a haunted walk through will leave your Halloween guests talking about your party for a long time.

Halloween Scavenger Hunt
Set up a Halloween scavenger hunt for your guests. Divide all of the guests up into teams and give them a list of creepy, gross or scary things that they have to find around your home, or even around town. Give them a specific time limit to meet back at the starting point. The team who finds the most things on their list will win some really cool prizes.

Costume Contest
All adults love to dress up for Halloween, so why not host a costume party? Choose a few friends to be the judges. Next, create a poster with all of the categories the costumes will be judged on. For example, you can have the scariest, the most unusual, the most original, the cutest and the ugliest costumes. Make sure you have some prizes ready for all of your winners.

Paranormal Party
Many adults do not believe in ghosts. However, you can prove them wrong by hosting your own séance. Have everyone sit around a table holding hands and closing their eyes. You or someone else can say a few chants or poems. In the background, have another hidden person making sound effects to make it seem real. You may even want to contact a professional séance person to come and do this activity for your group.

Theses are just a few adult activities that are sure to be a hit at your next Halloween party. When planning the activities, don’t forget to get prizes or participation prizes for all of your guests. Get prizes that are appealing to adults such as gift certificates, CDs or DVDs. The cooler your prizes are, the more participants you will have in your Halloween party activities.

More importantly, do not over plan. It is good to have four to five really good Halloween activities for a four to five hour party. Always have a few back up activities on hand just in case one fails. Do not try to cram in all of the activities. Do them casually, one after another and remember to have fun!
