Why it works as a party game

Trivia lets the quiet costumes score. Halloween is full of facts people only half remember, which is the right difficulty.

How to play

  1. Write four rounds of five questions: films, candy, folklore, and true-or-false.
  2. Read the question, then give 20 seconds.
  3. Teams of two or three submit one answer.
  4. One point each. A final wager question breaks a tie.

Hosting tips

  • Mix PG movie questions if kids are in the room.
  • Say the answer every time so the next question starts clean.
  • Stop at 20 questions.
