Ghosts, vampires, and lurching zombies are going stalk the land, including your office! So here are some tips for throwing a great office Halloween party that will leave your coworkers shaking in their skeleton shoes.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Throw a spooky luncheon.” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”]
\"\"<\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1517193647785{margin-top: 20px !important;margin-bottom: 20px !important;}”]Halloween is a time to get creative and spooky with your food. Arrange a luncheon with some \u201cDevil\u201d eggs or pumpkin pies with candy floss cobwebs or cookies baked into the shape of skulls and bats. You can also have plain pumpkin spice cookies available with icing and other edible decorations for your coworkers to design their own frightening foods.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Crazy costumes are a must.” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”]
\"\"<\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1517194691806{margin-top: 20px !important;margin-bottom: 20px !important;}”]You can\u2019t have Halloween without costumes. While costumes should be work appropriate, encourage the office to come decked out by offering prizes such as gift cards for the best dressed of the day. If you\u2019re having trouble deciding what to wear, get some\u00a0ideas for costumes\u00a0that fit right in the workplace.\u00a0<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Play some ghoulish games” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1517194662854{margin-top: 20px !important;margin-bottom: 20px !important;}”]Games are just as important when it comes to the perfect Halloween party. Bobbing for apples is an iconic Halloween game. You can set up an office-friendly version by dangling apples from a string and blindfolding the players so that you don\u2019t get stray water on those expense reports. Or you could throw a fashion show for the best costumes in the office.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Get some scary decorations” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”]
\"\"<\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1517194620487{margin-top: 20px !important;margin-bottom: 20px !important;}”]Decorations are crucial for nailing the Allhallowtide vibe. Besides the usual tricks like spreading cobwebs around the workplace or the odd skull, you can also delegate by holding a contest for the best-decorated workspace. Or you could also provide pumpkin carving stations so that coworkers can take a scary memento home.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Go trick or treating!” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1517194751846{margin-top: 20px !important;margin-bottom: 20px !important;}”]You can\u2019t have an authentic Halloween without Trick or Treating. Consider making this holiday a \u201ctake your child to work\u201d day or holding a children\u2019s charity and going from person to person to Trick or Treat. But remember to send out an email asking whoever wants to actually take part first!<\/p>\n
