A themed Halloween quiz works best when the atmosphere appears in more than the event title. A few strong rounds and a darker screen theme are enough to set the mood.
Five rounds for Halloween
- Horror movies — classics and cult characters
- Monsters of the world — legends and mythology
- Music after dark — videos and soundtracks
- Truth or legend — urban stories
- Finale: who survives the night? — double points
Not every question needs to be hard
People come for excitement, not an exam. After two difficult questions, give the room something most teams can recognise.
Add one visual round
A frame, prop, poster or silhouette can create more atmosphere than ten text questions and gives the host a natural comment moment.
