Halloween is just around the corner. This celebration has become a traditional festivity over the years. It is a time when children and adults come together to enjoy a spooky night and have maximum fun. Moreover, many of us know that there are fans of Harry Potter movies and outfits. The characters, the accessories, the atmosphere, everything allows us to have very creative ideas for organizing a party with the entire ambiance of this story for all ages. To do this, here’s what you need to do to create a Halloween party with all the ambiance and style of Harry Potter. Invitations First of all, you should create the invitations. They should be made of paper, as that is how they should be made (nothing electronic). You should place a map of the location on one side of the invitation and put a title like Kiwilimon's Map or Mapa Kiwlimon. On the other side, you should write the party details with invisible ink. Make sure to properly include the instructions for decoding the message you put. Finally, send the invitations to those you want to have at the party as guests. The Venue Next, you should start thinking about how to transform the place where the party will take place into an atmosphere like that of the Great Hall at Hogwarts. To achieve this, we recommend: - Place a sign at the entrance of the party that says Platform Nine and Three-Quarters. - Place pumpkins with candles inside throughout the venue (out of reach of small children). - Create the famous Sorting Hat for the table where the buffet will be. Decorate it with stars, moons, lights, and any other magical idea you can think of. - Create a centerpiece for the table that contains a large jar with herbs. This will be for the table where Professor Sprout will be. - Hang clouds and vampires from the ceiling. - Hang orange streamers throughout the venue. - Decorate the ceiling with aluminum foil stars. - Set the ambiance with Halloween music that contains ghost sounds. - Decorate the walls with pins and portraits in old frames. - Record a CD or save on your iPod the sound of someone moaning and play it throughout the party several times. This is to give an effect like Moaning Myrtle. - Hang some owls along the table. - Create or buy some potions in cauldrons and serve drinks in them. - If you hire a band to play music, it is important that they dress as ghosts to resemble those found in Hogwarts. Costume Ideas These are an important part and can be made simply or purchased ready-made (depending on the budget available). One of the simplest is the wizard costume with its hat and cloak, but there are other characters that can be considered. For Adults - Any Hogwarts staff member - Dementors - Werewolves - Trolls - Dragons - Muggles - Owls - Scabbers - Ghosts - Nearly Headless Nick For Children - Dudley - Harry - Hermione - Ron - Luna Lovegood - Draco Malfoy - Dobby the elf - Owls - Cats - Ghosts - Frogs Food This part is very important, and here you can let your imagination run wild as always.
