I'm having a halloween party this year and my parents will only let me have 8 girls. I have to have this party planned by next week (before school starts) and I need to call the girls 2-3 weeks before the actual party so they can come prepared. They will arive at 5:30 on Saturday (the day before halloween since the real date is on a Sunday) and leave at 1:30 on Sunday. I will have them bring their costumes since I want to have a fashion show with our costumes. I need ideas for movies, food, and decorations. Since I am on a tight budget I will make most of the stuff at home. They will have dinner before they come and at 7:30 we will leave for a haunted corn maze. Would it be alright if I asked them to bring $10?

-i dont think its rite to ask them for 10 bucks- but maybe have each girl bring a bulk item of their favorite candy so you only have to buy one snack and everyone has their favorites.
-you should, besides having movies, tape re-runs of the adams family, the munsters, bewitched, etc. off tv land
-do a scary makover (in groups of 2) and the person making you over is blindfolded! then switch! have contests debating the scaryiest, best done,looks most like our most hated teacher, etc.
-4 the makeover have them bring there own make up if you dont want to buy new make up or if you have enough use your own
-glow in the dark nail polish
-for decorations use any old things- like an old broken window and make a hand come thru it or something,
- use black garbage bags, make long fringes in them and hang them above door ways
-be creative w/ an old thing lying in the garage or shed
- if you hav a strobe light- that adds cool effect. some are cheap at party city or party fair
-for comedy haloween movies:ghostbusters,young frankenstein,little shop of horrors, hocus pocus, abbott and costello movies
-for horror:excercist,rosemary's baby, audry rose,poltergeist
-hope you liked some of my ideas!!!!!!!!!!!!!
