There is so much info on the web for this, even if you just do a search with terms like "Halloween party ideas" or Halloween party food" or "Halloween party decorations."
Two resources that we particularly like are:
www.marthastewart.com/halloween
and
www.heb.com/halloween
We loved Martha Stewart's Halloween Handbook this year, BTW! Check it out for the coolest ideas.
Now, for those who would like to throw something together last minute for Halloween and have it be cool and Halloweeny and festive but not much work, here are some of our ideas:
Serve regional favorite hamburgers that you buy (like Whataburgers or In and Out Burgers), or ones from a good hamburger place you know--buy them and fries, or have someone bring them just before, then reheat in foil (take off any paper wrappings) in a low 250 oven for about 10-15 minutes or until hot, and serve on platters. Easy, and it's a nostalgia/cult favorite thing, and fun. And since it's not your cooking, who can criticize?
Accompany with Halloween desserts such as themed cupcakes (best quality, not from the grocery store unless it's an upscale market since they do desserts well) and your candy assortment. Easy too! Or serve orange sherbert with black Oreo cookies to keep the theme but have it be easy on you.
Finally, you can buy if so inclined a large plastic jack-o-lantern, and use as a beverage tub.
Decorate as much or as little as you want, and then enjoy your easy-to-do and fun gathering.
Warmly,
Kristina
