Halloween is one of my favorite holidays to decorate for, and this year I plan to create a spooktacular Dead and Breakfast Inn theme for our Halloween decor, both inside and out. Our guest are first greeted with a spooktacular display as they walk up to our Dead & Breakfast Inn Halloween front porch. Once inside they will be dying to get a reservation at our spooky dinner party, where they can join some of the other goulish guests staying at the Dead & Breakfast Inn.
Every year I host a Halloween themed dinner party for friends. We've had everything from the Mad Scientist lab to a Murder Mystery Dinner Party, but this one just might be my new favorite! This Halloween themed dinner party features skeleton guests, a creepy hotel check-in desk, vintage decor, and a touch of glam for a truly haunted evening to remember. But first, guest will need to check-in and prepare for an evening of creepy fun they'll never want to leave.
Before your guests can sit down to a terrifyingly good dinner, they need to check-in with the Dead & Breakfast Inn staff. At the hotel check-in desk your guests will get their haunted room key drink charms so they can keep track of their chilled corpse colada cocktails. Once they have their room key they can leave any of their luggage with the creepy concierge.
Now that guests are all checked in, it's time to head to the dinning room to join the other ghoulish guests. Of course, our Dead & Breakfast Inn is the place every devilish soul wants to be on Halloween. So, it's no surprise that Mr. & Mrs. Rot and the spooky skeletons decided to join the dinner party. They even left an empty seat for whatever brave soul dares to join them!
Halloween is such a fun holiday to entertain friends and host a dinner party. There are so many ways you can decorate; spooky, gory, glam or a mix of both. For our dinner party I decided to mix a little bit of glam with a touch of spooky. I used the burlap fabric bolt to create a tablecloth. I then layered the table with one of the creepy cloth wall decorations and the black and white table runner. Then I added a simple DIY Skull Candle Centerpiece along with vintage books, spider web candelabras, twigs, cotton branches and stretchy spider web.
Each place setting included a black square dinner plate layered with a spooky soiree dessert plate. I used my favorite gold flatware, black linen napkins and skull hand plastic cups to round out the place settings. I also included a small Halloween favor bag filled with black and white jelly beans at each place setting.
There are so many creepy and fun recipes you can serve at your haunted dinner party. Our guests enjoyed chilled corpse colada cocktails, decomposed salad, eyeball soup and we ended the evening with death by chocolate cupcakes and blood red velvet cupcakes served on our DIY Skull Serving Tray. I also think it would be fun to include lots of gory themed breakfast food at this Dead & Breakfast Inn dinner party.
I know that our friends are going to love hanging out with all of our ghoulish party guests at this spooktacular Halloween dinner party.
