In this blog, we will list decoration ideas, pool party tips, and even some Halloween-themed spooky yet fun games you can play!
Spooky Decor Ideas for Pool
If you own a pool, why not make it a part of your Halloween fun? You can have a cool, spooky spot and take your Halloween party to the next level by decorating it as you envision. Here are some decoration ideas you can consider if you are hosting a pool party:
- Pumpkins: A significant part of Halloween decor is pumpkins. You can use real pumpkins, as they float in the pool, or even jack-o-lanterns that add a pop of color and spookiness. Another thing you can do is line the perimeter of the pool with pumpkins!
- Glowing Hands: This is easy to accomplish — you can use surgical gloves and place glow sticks inside. Fill them with air and tie them off; they will enhance the sinister vibe you are going for.
- Plastic Skeletons: You can use plastic skeletons in multiple ways, from putting them on rafts or in the pool to placing them on chairs, around the pool, etc. They can also add fun details to your Halloween decor.
- Turn the Water Red: If you are a fan of slight gore or scary details, you can always turn the pool water red for that extra Halloween spirit. You can even add some floating body parts to really sell the scary effects. If you do not want to turn the pool water red, you can turn on red lights for the frightening glow.
- A Layer of Fog: You can also add the aura of mystery and eeriness around your pool area with the help of a thin layer of fog. Place your fog machine strategically to set the mood for your Halloween pool party!
Games Ideas for Your Halloween Pool Party
Pool parties are fun; you can host them with some music, snacks, and maybe even some games. Yes, that is right – take your pool party up a notch by asking your guests to participate in some pool games.
A fun idea is to dive for pumpkins! You can put some in the pool, and they will float. The participants will have to swim to their pumpkins, and they can carve the ones they choose. This can make for another fun activity — carve the pumpkins! You can place a candle inside the carved pumpkins and let them float in the pool.
You can also pick some Halloween-colored eggs and fill them with sweets and little gifts. Ask your guests to hunt for them in the pool and collect the eggs!
