A big ariana grande themed party where everyone dresses like ariana grande and we listen to nothing but ariana and do ariana karaoke lol??????? I don't know why i had this idea but i did so.
A 90's themed halloween party, where everyone dresses like 90's icons or just general 90's attire, and the entire party is also 90's themed. nostalgia. 90's music. 90's snacks. 90's posters on the walls. a 90's TV lol. activities like, roller blading contests, and 90's culture trivia. MTV 90's episodes playing in the background. games that were typical from the old days like, spin the bottle, telephone, truth or dare. 90's gift bags with things in them like, home made tapes with 90's music on them. 90's accessories. stick on tattoos. hair gel for guys and a comb, hair accessories for girls like scrunchies and the iconic clips girls uses back in the diz-ay. Iconic music in the backyard by the pool via DJ.
Play with a oujia board or something stupid like that. Check out dumb ghost apps on the phone and try them out just for shits. Read about old witch rituals or whatever.
Pagan/moon circles bonfire things?
Out in Casadaga Florida (if you read about this town it will creep you the fuck out all the mystical bull shit behind it. It's kind of like Florida's version of Salem. It's very haunted and weird.) So yeah go to Casadega, and then ask around in local coffee shops where the moon dances are happening that night. You might even find them on facebook or whatever google idk. But these bonfire moon dance moon circle things are super weird, you get to meet the craziest people in Florida and they're all off their rocker and believe weird shit. Some of them believe they're vampies and shit. It's funny. And they dance around the bonfire and do acid and other drugs. Drink a lot. Idk. sometimes they have them on a beach of a lake which is extra creepy because the dark water, something about it is ominous. I suppose you could rent a boat and go out on the water, or some people in Florida like to just hang out in lakes all day. Rope swing into them and, jet ski around and shit. They get big water trampolines and like bounce off of them into the lakes. That's fun but very creepy at night. Which is the goal.
Concerts.
Film Night!
Binge watch scary movies and iconic fall movies together. Or watch movies about serial killers or something edgy. Noir thrillers and true crime shit.
Binge watching scary movies with people is actually like one of my favorite things to do. I've done it a lot. One of the most fun was when we binged Quinten Tarintino films. If you're all into it and like know the lines and stuff it's really fun to geek out about.
No halloween is complete without halloween snacks.
Halloween Horror Nights
This is something that pretty much everyone in Orlando grows up doing. Universal has this huge halloween thing and they deck out the place in fucking halloween shit. They used to have staff hired to run around and chase you with chainsaws and jump out at you but they don't do that anymore because 1. people were mad about the chainsaws being dangerous (even though they removed the chain) and 2. when people popped out and scared the wrong person- staff members were getting punched in the face.
They have haunted houses though still and these are pretty epic. They have several different houses with several different themes- and one year they did an Edgar Allen Po themed house and it was fuckin phenomenal. They put a lot of effort into it. There was like chairs on the ceiling and shit, there people in there hiding and waiting to scare you in costumes and stuff. It's very creepy. It feels like walking into an alternate dimension. You're kind of lost, you don't know the way out- but that's the point ;)
It's really fun to watch your friends piss themselves.
Go to an escape room or book a party in one.
Laser Tag
or you can just do paintball in the woods in the dark, and play manhunt and shit like that. Water balloons. That shit's always fun. Just make sure to set boundaries :P
Water activities. Like wet n' wild and adventure island, Disney Springs/Disney resorts or just your local fall festival will have like you know all the fun shit. caramel covered apples and, ferris wheels and blow up slides.
play dodgeball lol
invite the whole office to play baseball against each other. May or may not involve inebriation.
racquetball is also fun thing to do with a small group of people.
Movie in the Park
A local area I used to live, a record store in that town called T-bones had the tradition of putting up halloween/fall classic movies on the big screen on the side of their building for everyone to come chill out in the field and watch. Those were fun.
I know in Florida they have one in Park ave every year and also one in a pool resort type hotel place called Gaylord Palms and those are fun. All the big hotels usually have holiday related events going on so check for those in your local whatever. I'm sure Vegas and New York big cities like that is a blast on halloween. They have all sorts of shit going on :P
Also where I lived they put on a huge event at a famous historical theater (Sanger Theater) where they showed an iconic movie and they had like games going on during the movie i dont know but everyone who showed up was dressed as characters from the movie... it was that movie from perks of being a wallflower that they put on a show about in the movie? I forgot the title of it lol. I wasn't paying attention but it was fun.
Check your local indie theaters, they might have some events going on.
I know a local theater they always do events surrounding holidays that are really fun, it's an "indie theater" not like a "feature films" normal theater so they have lots of fun idk. sometimes they have film festivals and stuff like that so.
Go to a local music/coffee hangout type of place
I know a place in town that has events every night pretty much and, one night's hip hop night, one night's comedy night, one night's indie music night- etc. So those are fun to go to. Just watch live music or look for a place doing stand up comedy. That's always fun.
Fall fashion show
Locally here we have that sort of thing going on. I dunno I live in a big city so there's always events going on you just google "your town name, events" and you'll find something but. Out door fashion shows are fun because you can bring your dog. lol! And you dress him up in a cute halloween bow tie or something and everyone stops to talk to you and pet it. It's a great way to meet completely random people, and your dog gets to have a lot of fun. To make it fun for yourself, get yourself ice cream or something while walking around. Lol.
