Hosting a Halloween party this year? If so, chances are you’ve been focusing on festive cocktails and creepy treats, but may have overlooked your table. This Halloween tablescape is elevated, with spooky surprises and ghoulish décor. Because you know what’s even better than a regular old Halloween party? A sophisticated, grown-up Halloween dinner party.

We kept the base of this table traditional with a black and orange buffalo check tablecloth and napkins with spooky black chargers to give the table even more of a creepy feel. Fill the center of the table with elaborate candelabras, drippy black candles, mice, bugs and black birds. The more bugs the better… you can never have too many during Halloween.

Guests enjoyed bloody vampire cocktails, a skeleton cheese board, “snake venom” tomato soup and much more. The best part about Halloween is it has no age limits on it – so have fun and enjoy!
