The Dos for Homeowners Hosting a Halloween Party
There are only a handful of days or occasions throughout the year that a homeowner has the opportunity to showcase their imagination. One of those days is October 31st. Here are some Halloween tips to get noticed for homeowners trying to compete with fright fest and the many haunted houses this October.
Must-Haves to Make Your Halloween Party a Scream
Homeowners hosting Halloween parties this year should also focus on eye-popping food. Presentation is key, well food coloring is the key, but presentation does matter. One example is green popcorn labeled as monster’s popcorn or goblin’s snot or Frankenstein’s snot. In terms of presentation, homeowners can serve drinks in blood bags as opposed to regular cups. They can also get a hocus pocus cauldron to serve drinks or food. Guests will be bewitched by the potions they receive.
Every successful Halloween party relies on good home decor. Homeowners will want to create a spooky atmosphere that will evoke the spirit of Halloween. Imagine a house devoid of bright lights, covered in spider webs, with fog flowing along the ground. The traditional carved pumpkins are also cool, but to elevate the experience go for themed lights like creepy lanterns with skull heads, zombie arms, or peeping eyes.
Candy Options
For candy, the more the merrier. Get enough candy for the partygoers and the neighborhood trick-or-treaters. If going for traditional candy, candy corn, and chocolate wrapped in purple, green, or orange foil is the way. Want to go beyond that?
Give the human organ gummies a try. There is also candy (mainly chocolate) wrapped in decorative wrappers that feature Frankenstein, pumpkins, and ghosts. Other sweet tooth options are deserts. Ever had a cake pop? Get the guests eyeball cake pops. Also, try cupcakes with the frosting molded and shaped like a brain, or use Halloween-themed toppers that say boo.
Better Air Quality Means HVAC Maintenance
With all the planning for a Spook-tacular Halloween Party, it might be easy for the homeowner to forget about their HVAC maintenance. However, when thinking of their guests and their comfort level, then HVAC maintenance has a spot on the planning list. In evaluating comfort in the home, the air quality and the temperature of said home are what to watch for.
One should not do HVAC maintenance last minute, as the term maintenance signifies a prevention method. HVAC maintenance can catch all minuscule problems before they turn into an expensive catastrophe. That said, homeowners should have air conditioning service and heating service done at least once a year.
