Party Supplies To Entertain Your Guests
By Jane Kliperrs
Call eight to ten of your ghastliest boy and ghoul-friends for
this year’s Halloween get-together and it’s sure to be a scream!
Party supplies are likely to include elaborate decorations, partyware,
favors, themed food and party supplies costumes. You can have
just as much fun planning the party as you’ll have at the party,
if you start a month in advance.
The first task can be rather daunting, knowing where to look
for costumes and party supplies. Party City is a great wholesale
party supply store that will have costumes from $15 - $60 for
adults.
However, you’ll want to shop as early as possible to avoid barren
shelves and poor selection. Buycostumes.com
has unique costumes for reasonable prices. If you want a really
horrific mask and are willing to spend a little more, Thehorrordome.com
is your site. You can find hundreds of costumes at Orientaltrading.com,
including plus sizes and couples options!

Party Supplies Online
It pays to look for party supplies online, especially when it
comes to decorations and props. Avoid cheesy or cutesy Halloween
decor, unless you’re throwing a kids party. Instead, buy some
inexpensive yet creepy cobwebs and table cloths and strategically
place several really gruesome items around the house, as well
as props and wall coverings.
At Frightcatalog.com,
you can get $20 wall coverings that turn your house into a cemetery,
haunted forest or blood-splattered torture chamber; a $20 light-up
Bates Motel sign or a $5 monster hands "Enter At Your Own
Risk" sign; life-sized Freddy Kreuger cut-outs ($10) or possessed
pictures that change from normal to ghastly for $20.
Freak Out Your Guests
If you’re one not to be outdone and want to really freak your
guests out, check Thehorrordome.com
for super creepy animatronics and props. While some items range
into the thousands (for Haunted House displays), you can find
a light-up skull for $30, a talking animatronic tree face for
$34, a 21-inch skeleton shelf for $33, a severed vampire bride
head ($30) or even the "It’s Alive" baby puppet for
$89! At Orientaltradingpost.com, you can also purchase 144 orange
and black balloons for just $13 or 48 black skull balloons for
just $8.
As far as partyware party supplies go, Orientaltrading.com offers
25 plates in themed colors for just $2.95, skeleton hand champagne
glasses (12 for $18), decorated table cloths ($3), a skull punch-bowl
set for $24, and monster hand Jello molds.
A traditional and cheap main entree is goulash made of just noodles,
sauce, peppers, onions and ground beef. (You can serve a small
army for $10). Other options include: Pumpkin soup or pie, deviled
potato salad, herb-marinated olives, nutty phyllo ghosts, candy
apples and more (at Foodnetwork.com). A larger list of Halloween
recipe sites can be found at: Darklinks.com/dhauntfood.html, which
includes vegetarian and cocktail options.
Music At Your Halloween Party
For music party supplies, you can purchase a Halloween compilation
or download the typical "Monster Mash" or Ghostbuster
theme tunes. For more upbeat atmosphere, try a "horrorbilly"
or "psychobilly" band or two.
The Matadors, The Creepshow or The Horrorpops give you Halloween-themed
music with an old rock n roll twist that’s sure to get your party
dancing. Or purchase an inclusive murder mystery kit with food,
music and entertainment directions.
Favors For Your Friends
Lastly, it could be fun to give your friends some favors to take
home with them as a memento. Orientaltrading.com has an especially
good selection of party supplies and favors by the dozen -- like
12 light-up skeleton shot-glasses for $10.
A bare bones Halloween party will probably cost you from $50
- $100 in party supplies, but a fearsome bash can cost even more,
depending on your props. It’s a good idea to settle on one big
prop each year if you plan to keep hosting parties, talk to friends
to pool resources and perhaps even host the party with someone
else and split expenses.
Remember, making a budget and sticking to it is the best way
to have a guilt-free and monstrously good time!

Facts About Party Supplies
If you are in charge of the party, think about the little extras.
No, not extra people. Extras like decorations, party favors, noise
makers and things that go along with the theme of the party.
It has become customary to give out little party bags to the
guest. This is especially true if it is a child's birthday party.
The little trinkets can be anything from pencils to small bottles
of bubbles. It is not necessary to drive around town trying to
round up the party supplies.
