Planning a Halloween party for your goblins or need a spooky meal before heading out to Trick or Treat? I’ve gathered over 70 EASY Halloween party recipes & ideas for a Spooktacular night.

When my Teens were younger, I made Mummy Dogs and Mac ‘n Cheese for dinner on Halloween. Every year. For many, many years.

Preparing a fun, themed dinner was the best way to ensure my kids would have something more substantial than a bunch of candy in their bellies by night’s end.

Now that my kids are older (and their taste buds have evolved), we’ve moved past Mummy Dogs to other fun Halloween eats. Like this Halloween Charcuterie Board and Halloween Chocolate Covered Strawberries.

For the record, I prefer to make FUN spooky food for Halloween. I’m not into creepy food.

I mean, who wants to be grossed out by disgusting food? Severed finger hot dogs – yuck!! The Halloween recipes & ideas I’ve linked to below are spooky, but in a fun way.

So many awesome appetizer, snack, drinks, main dishes and of course, dessert recipes! I’ve also included several fun party & decorating ideas.
