Jack-o'-Lantern Bowling Party Game

Why it works as a party game

You already bought pumpkins. Halloween party games that reuse the decorations are the ones people actually set up.

How to play

1. Stack ten cans in a triangle at the end of a hallway or driveway.
2. Each player gets two rolls per frame, like bowling.
3. A pumpkin that leaves the lane scores zero for that roll.
4. Play five frames. High score wins.

Hosting tips

• Use a pie pumpkin, not a carving giant.
• Plastic bottles with a little water stay upright better than cans.
• Move it outside if the floor is pretty.
