Free Themed Party Games for Birthdays, Holidays and Parties

Halloween Party Supplies like skull candles, door hangers, spooky ghost streamers can turn any room into the perfect Halloween Party spot. Halloween Party games like “Trick or Treat” have basis in ancient Celtic customs. Many of the Halloween practices changed over time to become more ritualized and others we perform without knowing the reason behind the activities like wearing costumes. As belief in spirit possession waned, the practice of dressing up like hobgoblin, ghosts, and witches took on a more ceremonial role. Halloween marked Winters beginning, when food was at its scarcest, and starvation not uncommon. Roaming from door-to-door demanding treats can be traced to the Celtic period and the first few centuries of Christianity when it was thought that the souls of the dead were out and around, along with fairies, witches, and demons. Food and drink were left to placate them.
