Mummy Wrap
This game is sure to be a hit. Divide guests into groups of three or four and give each group one roll of toilet paper. One person in each group is the mummy. When you say, "go," guests wrap the designated mummy up as fast as they can. First team to finish wins. You can also make up other prizes for best quality or the funniest mummies.
Halloween Musical Chairs
Start the party by playing Halloween music, such as the “Monster Mash” or Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”. Arrange the chairs in a circle, facing outwards, with the guests standing outside of the circle. Once the music starts, players begin walking around the circle. When the music stops the guests must sit in a chair as fast as they can, the person left standing is out of the game, one more chair is removed and the game continues. The last one standing wins!
