Why it works as a party game

A hunt empties a crowded room for twenty minutes and brings it back louder. That is a gift at a Halloween party.

How to play

  1. Write ten items: a jack-o'-lantern, a black cat, a spider, a broom, a candy wrapper.
  2. Teams of two or three leave with one phone.
  3. Photos only. Do not take anyone's decorations.
  4. First team back with all ten, or most finds at the bell, wins.

Hosting tips

  • Stay on the block you named.
  • Indoor version hides paper bats you placed before guests arrived.
  • Award a style point for the funniest photo, not just speed.
