I remember playing this Halloween game when I was 10, it was gross and tons of fun.  This is the perfect game for a childrens Halloween party, and I’d bet some adults would like it too.   This Halloween game is an oldy but a goody.  Using regular every day items to gross out your kids and your kids friends is what Halloween is all about. 

Gather everyone in a circle on the floor.  Lighting should be very dark (only candlelight at the most), you don’t want the kiddies seeing the actual contents.  Weave your tale of terror of a young boy or girl who went out trick or treating alone.   Jamie was her/his name.  Jamie had ventured out from his neighborhood, cutting through the woods to get more neighborhoods.  Jamie’s parents had no idea their child had gone so far.  As the night loomed on Jamie’s parents became frightened and headed out to look for him.  When morning came all they found were these remains.

Here is his brain, which now feels no pain.
(a peeled squishy tomato)

Here are his eyes, still frozen with surprise.
(two frozen peeled grapes or olives)

Here is his heart. Be careful lest it start!
(a large lump of uncooked liver)

Now we have his hair, which once was so fair!
(a handful of corn silk or wet fur or yarn)

Feel these drops of his blood. All the rest turned to mud.
(a little ketchup thinned with warm water)

One hand all alone, just rotting flesh and bone.
(a damp plastic glove filled with red gelatin or ice)

Now touch his ear. He nevermore will hear!
(a dried apricot)

This is his nose. It will never smell a rose.
(a pickle, a hot dog or a soft chicken bone)

These worms are all that’s left to feel. For this little boy was
a lovely meal!
(wet spaghetti)

Of course you can change the story and say absolutely anything you want.  I just think the kids find it scarier if they are thinking this could be them.
