There are actually a lot of companies making board games for Halloween! We've found quite a few over the past couple years. Any of these would make a great addition to a Halloween party or for a family game night during the Halloween season.
Some of the more interesting ones that we've found are Halloween Dominoes, Halloween Bingo and Halloween Jenga. My 78 year old mom had a Halloween party last year with the ladies from her domino club, we bought her a set of the Halloween Dominoes and that's what they used. All the ladies were so thrilled with them, they just never imagined that you could find games like that relating to Halloween.
You just have to look for them and you'll find them. Check out stores like Wal-mart or Walgreens. Check online doing a search for "Halloween board games" and you'll find quite a few. Just another simple way to keep a little more excitement in Halloween for you and your kids.

Halloween 2009 will be on a Saturday do you can have a party on Friday night and still not miss out on the trick-or-treating on Halloween night! Games always make a party run smooth and help fill any empty time that might come up. There are so many games for kids that can be adapted for adults that you won't run out of ideas, besides, most adults like to act a little like a kid on Halloween anyway! Here's an idea for another great game!
In turn, each player places their toes on the distance line marked with the tape, and then tries to toss all of their pieces of candy into the pail or cauldron one at a time. When every player has had a turn, the scores are compared and the player who tossed in the most candy wins all of the candy in the plastic pumpkin or cauldron.
What you will need:
Plastic Pumpkin Pail or Cauldron, Halloween Candy, Note Pad & Pencil for keeping score, Measuring stick or tape measure, Colored Tape.
HALLOWEEN "CANDY TOSS" GAME
Place a small plastic pumpkin pail or cauldron on the floor or suspended by a cord from the ceiling. Measure off a distance of six feet for children or eight feet for adults from the pumpkin pail or cauldron and mark with a piece of colored tape. This is were the player must stand when they try to toss the candy into the plastic pumpkin or cauldron.
Next, hand out six pieces of candy to each player. The candy should all be about the same size. We like to use those miniature candy bars that come in bags around Halloween.
