Halloween Bingo
Spooky Halloween bingo is a fun, easy, and low-prep party game that keeps guests entertained while still soaking in all the spooky summer vibes.

You can even turn it into a prize game where the first few people to get bingo win Summerween favors or themed prizes.
It’s perfect as an ongoing background activity during your party because it keeps everyone engaged without needing constant setup—plus it naturally encourages guests to participate in all your other Summerween games, food stations, and decorations.
Pin the Eyeball on the Zombie
Pin the Eyeball on the Zombie is a hilarious Summerween twist on the classic party game.

The closer they get, the better their score!
It’s simple, affordable, and perfect for all ages, making it a great filler game between bigger Summerween party activities.

Glow in the dark eyeball pong is a spooky Summerween twist on classic party pong that’s perfect for nighttime fun.
Set up cups decorated like mini cauldrons, pumpkins, or tiki-style Halloween mugs and fill them with glow sticks or neon lighting to make them shine in the dark.
Players take turns tossing glowing eyeballs or ping pong balls into the cups, trying to score points by landing them inside.
You can assign different point values to each cup or play elimination-style, where the first team to clear all cups wins.
