Halloween Scavenger Hunt Prizes, what to give the winner as a gift?

You’ve got the list items all sorted, your guests have all confirmed they are coming and the decorations for the night have been put up. Now for the prize for the winner. What does one give on a Halloween Scavenger Hunt to the winner?

There are many choices really. From scary Halloween costumes, to masks, or a photo of a cemetry, but a really memorable prize would be a photograph of them out on the hunt, on a digital camera and printed off whilst the hunt is still on, then framed in a Halloween styled frame. Or you could give the winner goblets, black and red candles, black jewellery, a certificate written in red ink that looks like gross blood. Or why not treat them to a night out on the town.

The choices are endless when it comes to Halloween. Just use your imagination and think about things that you would like to win if you were a hunter on Halloween.

Happy Halloween Hunting

So, you’ve decided to have a Halloween Scavenger Hunt. Time is running out and you’re panicking as to how you’re going to entertain all the people attending your hunt.

Being Halloween, there’s no better time than to hold a scary, ghoulish type hunt. If you have run out of time and are unable to buy too many items for your hunters to find, another really great option for keeping them entertained and busy is to purchase cheap throw away cameras, and pick scary Halloween type places and objects around your hunt area for your hunters to find and photograph. Instead of picking the winner, by who has the most on the items list, a prize can be given to the first person or team that manage to photograph all the items on the list you will have written up and be the first back to a particular place still with camera.

The best part about this option, is that once the hunt is over, if you wanted to collect all the cameras you could get them developed send them to your friends and have a great time laughing over all the silly pictures.

If children are attending your hunt, a great way to keep them occupied is buy packets of candy, like snakes, chocolate frogs, and other scary looking foods that only kids love. If children are to stay inside, place items around the house or back yard and have your hunt there. You would be surprised how excited children get, when they are scavenging for stuff in their own yards.

Don’t forget to have some Halloween decorations for the house, and if the weather outside isn’t too great, organize a hunting game inside, for both adults and children.

You could hide items around your house, just make sure nothing can be broken, supply lists to find the items, bring food, like chocolate mousse with wriggly worms in it, and make bright red punch with floating eyeballs in it. There are so many ways your imagination can flourish.

If you don’t wish your house to be the centre of your hunt, find a hall, or pick a restaurant and hold it there. Either way, let your creative side come out and make a hunt to remember.
