Ackley Florida Property Management - Thursday, October 12, 2023

Hey there, dear residents!

As the nights grow longer and a chill creeps into the air, we're ushering in everyone's favorite spooky season - Halloween! If you're thinking of hosting a fang-tastic soirée at your home, we've got you covered. From ghostly games to eerie eats, here are your essentials for a hauntingly memorable Halloween home party:

Spectral Decor:

Creepy Candles: Opt for black, orange, or blood-red candles. The flickering lights will add to the ambiance.
Webbed Wonders: Drape faux spider webs around your apartment, especially in corners or over mirrors.
Pumpkin Parade: Get a mix of real and faux pumpkins. Encourage carving competitions or decorate with paints, glitters, and stickers!
Terrifying Treats:

Mummy Dogs: Wrap hot dogs in crescent roll dough and bake. Dot with mustard for eyes!
Bloody Punch: Mix cranberry juice, lemon-lime soda, and a dash of grenadine. Float sherbet for added eeriness!
Spider Cookies: Make chocolate chip cookies but replace a few chips with licorice strings as spider legs. Don't forget the raisin eyes!


Morbid Music:
Create a playlist filled with haunting hits like Thriller, Ghostbusters, and of course, the classic Monster Mash.

Ghostly Games:

Murder Mystery: Buy a kit or create your own story. Assign characters to guests and let the investigation begin!
Pin the Spider on the Web: A spooky twist on the classic party game.
Apple Bobbing: A timeless tradition! Ensure you keep it sanitary by giving each player their own set of apples.
Safe and Spectacular:
We love a good scare, but safety is paramount! If using candles, keep them away from flammable items. Also, if you're wearing a costume with long trailing pieces, be cautious around open flames and stoves.

Costume Corner:
Create a little photo area with props for tenants to snap a pic of their ghastly get-ups. Share on social (with permission) and maybe even host a costume competition!

Trick-or-Treat Tidbits:
If you're expecting trick-or-treaters in our community, keep candies at the ready! For those who prefer a non-candy option, consider stickers, mini-coloring books, or glow sticks.

A Few Final Words...
Remember, Halloween is all about creativity and fun! Whether you're going all out with a bash or having a cozy horror movie marathon, we hope you have a spook-tacular time. If you have any questions or need assistance with anything regarding your unit, feel free to reach out to us.
