Halloween is becoming more and more popular in Australia every year, we just love any excuse to dress-up and throw a party.
Emma had a great kids Halloween party for lots of her little friends a couple of years ago, and it was a big hit! If you are looking for Kids Halloween Party Food and Activity ideas, head over to the post for lots of inspiration.
But Halloween parties aren’t just for kids, they are a great opportunity to get together with friends and family for a fun and festive catch-up. When was the last time you threw a shindig just because?

My friend’s son went as a ‘head’ last year – a ‘table’ body and his ‘dead head’ the star on top with a dinner platter suspended above. It was brilliant.
This is such a fantastic round up of Halloween parties, BTW >>> almost makes me want to have one!!

That sounds truly scary! You are the winner!

One of my twins is heavily into special effects make-up so one Halloween she did makeup to look like she had all kinds of nails and glass sticking out of her face… so creepy!
