and place them on the boxes on their card.
One player is selected to start and he lifts one item up and calls it out, eg car key

Halloween Themes Based on Movies
Posted by: | CommentsHalloween is a true movie buff’s holiday! Historic events on Halloween include ‘The Witch’s Dungeon’, located in Bristol, Connecticut. This museum is privately owned by Cortlandt Hull, professional makeup artist and illustrator since 1966. An old witch’s house is constructed on the property deep in the woods, and several classic American icons ‘populate’ this ‘fairy tale home.’
A dungeon exists where visitors encounter the ‘Phantom of the Opera’, ‘Dracula’, the ‘Mummy’ and other well-known movie ghouls and goblins. Replicas of the famous classical movie icons are in each nook and cranny and the replicas are created from live casts of the character’s head. Artistic painting, natural hair, and original costumes complete their ‘real life’ transformation. Voice tracks add realism using voice talents such as Vincent Price and John Agar, as well as June Foray and Mark Hamill.
Striking detail makes this a ‘must have’ Halloween visiting spot, and traveling through the dungeon brings a visitor ‘up close and personal’ with each character.
Halloween Outings
Posted by: | CommentsA night of fright can be had by you and your friends! A Halloween outing is just the ticket! Whether visiting a local haunted house or horror show at a theme park, or just going to see the ‘Rocky Horror Picture Show’ again, Halloween is fun!
Try adding the following activities and have even more fun:
1. Invite everyone before hand to your home to carve pumpkins. Go to a pumpkin stand to pick them out first together and then take loads of pictures.
2. If going to a costume party, pick them out together. Pick hair coloring too and candy to eat.
3. Dress up together while playing Halloween tunes in the background.
4. Stop at a graveyard. This is great!
5. Have a picnic at a graveyard while telling spooky stories.
6. Take back roads while driving to and from your destinations. They are spookier!
7. Make sure to go through each town you can to see the decorations.
8. Let everyone sleep over at your home.
9. Play games that revolve around Halloween.
10. Have foods both on Halloween night and the morning after that are traditional foods for Halloween.
Having Halloween fun can be more enhanced by the above.
Looking for Jane
Posted by: | CommentsThis game needs 8 or more people to work.
Each woman then writes down an a card a description of herself and the clothing she is wearing.
The name on each card is Jane and they are mixed and passed around the men in the party.
When a man finds someone he thinks is right, he reads card and she will say “Yes thats me” or “No, not me.”
When everyone is paired up the game is over.
As an extra variation you could make the descriptions a bit more vague, perhaps on something people would not necessarily know about you.
