The secret of a cool Halloween costume party
The most mysterious and terrifying night of Halloween is approaching. How to make a perfect holiday that will appeal to the whole company and will be remembered for a long time? Tips, life hacks, ideas – read about it in our new article.
Scenario
It can be anything you like: a plot of a popular movie (or a fragment of it), a witch party (perfect for a bachelorette party), a night of scary stories, angels and demons (divide attendees into an army of good and evil), a gothic party, a ghost lair. A holiday can also be organized in the form of a quest, especially if it is possible to invite an actor or another person who plays the role of a ghost and scares the guests a little.
Costume
It can be bought in a speciality store or sewed by yourself. You can choose a thematic costume (witches, owls, bats) for the image or “thematize” any other (tear and dirty the Snow White costume). So, everything here is limited only by your imagination and dexterity of hands.
Makeup
For homemade Halloween makeup decorative cosmetics (shadows, eyeliner, pencils, blush, powder), false eyelashes, paints, prepared independently may be suitable. To create realistic makeup of the girl used by any products, which is just enough imagination of its creators. If you want to make the task easier, buy a ready-made makeup kit in the spirit of a particular image. For example, in the “Halloween vampire makeup”, you will probably find false teeth with fangs, a bag of “blood”, black and red paints and a brush.
In addition, you will need brushes of different thickness and texture, sponge, napkins and cosmetic disks. Makeup video tutorials you will find on YouTube.
Jack’s lamp
You don’t know what Jack’s lamp is? This is the main symbol of the holiday! That pumpkin for Halloween, whose grimaces everyone is trying to make as sinister as possible! Using a marker to draw a terrible face, then cut it on the outline of the drawing with a knife. A candle or a flashlight is placed inside, and a regular pumpkin turns into a table monster with a backlight. But, if you don’t want Jack’s lamp to be evil, then make him kind with a sweet smile.
What is a party without music?
We recommend choosing a playlist with tracks that will create the atmosphere you want in advance.
Bring your music outside so your guests are scared before they come to you. This music can be much shorter than what will be played inside. Search for scary music pieces online.
Add a bit of humour to the holiday and put up some fun content ads like:
- “Be careful – they can eat you”
- “Dear guests, please do not bite!”
- “A healthy and attractive vampire needs a donor”
- “The young witch, 127 years old, wants to meet a reliable life partner for joint flights on a broom and the organization of abominations”
- “Did the dark work – drink blood boldly”
