Halloween party for teens
Disclosure: I originally created this Halloween party idea for Party City when they still had storefronts. After shutting them down and removing our content off their website, I’ve moved my own content over here.

According to IMDB, this is the best list of Slasher themed movies for teens.
Red velvet naked cake
We used two boxes of red velvet cake mix divided between three 9” cake pans to make this 3-tiered cake.
Once baked, cut the top off each cake so that each layer is completely flat. Wrap them individually and put them into the freezer. Freezing them prevents a lot of the crumbs coming off when icing it.
Place the first cake onto your cake tray and add cream cheese frosting to the top. Place the second cake on top of that, and again, frost the top. Repeat for the top tier. Frost around the outside of the cakes leaving gaps for red sections of the cake to show through.
We placed a knife in the center of the cake, and then drizzled strawberry glaze over the top of the cake to make it appear that blood was running over the sides.
Bloody vanilla milkshakes
Blend 2 scoops of vanilla bean ice-cream with milk for each milkshake. Pour into the Blood Splatter Plastic Cups, and then drizzle a little strawberry glaze (leftover from the cake) over the top. Kids can mix it in to make a strawberry shake, or drink it as it is.
Sectional food tray
Include a few different food options into the sectional platter. We chose to add red cherries, black grapes, and powdered donut holes to keep with the red, black, and white theme.
Ice ‘Scream’ tubs
Using your computer and Canva or PicMonkey, make small round labels with the words ICE SCREAM on them and put them on top of individual vanilla ice-cream tubs. If you’d rather print our ice scream labels, click on the image above to access our free PDF.
