Plastic pumpkin (or other container), chalk board or drawing board, slips of paper.
What You Do:
If you are familiar with the game of Pictionary®, then you'll know what to do. If not, a short explanation: Pictionary® is a game played by two teams of people. One team sends a person up to aboard to draw a word in picture then the team must guess what it is. This is a Halloween version of that game.
Before the party, make slips of paper with Halloween words such as Mummy, Tombstone, Bats, Vampires, Jack-O-Lantern, Spider, Witch, Black Cat, Candy Corn, etc. Place them in a bowl of some kind, (a plastic child's pumpkin for trick or treating works great). Divide the partygoers into two teams. One player from the first team starts by picking a slip of paper from the bowl. Use a chalkboard, erasable marker board, or large pad of drawing paper and pen to draw items related to the word, players can not write the word. Their team tries to guess the word. Set a 2-minute time limit. The other team goes next. Keep rotating until everyone has a chance to draw. You can keep score and have one team win, or just play for the fun of it.
