A first excellent Halloween snack recipe idea is to prepare ants on a log; which are a very disgusting type of snacks to look at; although they're extremely healthy and tasteful.

Ingredients to prepare ants on a log:

• Fresh celery
• Peanut butter
• Black grapes

How to prepare Halloween ants on a log:

• Cut celery branches into 5" long pieces
• Cut the celery pieces lengthwise
• Fill each piece of celery with some peanut butter
• Add raisin and display on a dish

Ants on a log are an excellent treat for people to eat as finger food and if you let them stick on the raisins themselves, it can actually make them more interested in the process as a whole

Another popular and tasteful Halloween recipe to serve at your party is edible Halloween eyeballs. This recipe is a bit ickier than ants on a log and will certainly work wonders on your table.

Naturally, they aren't real eyeballs but they are definitely a good approximation of how eyeballs look and will definitely scare your Halloween party guests.

Ingredients you need to prepare Halloween eyeballs:

• Hard-boiled eggs
• Cottage cheese
• Olives
• Red pepper strands

Directions to prepare Halloween eyeballs:

• Cut hard-boiled eggs in two
• Remove the egg yolk
• Fill the egg white with cottage cheese
• Place a stuffed olive in the center
• Add some red pepper strads to perfect the ghoulish look

Another way to make Halloween eyeballs is to peel a bunch of large carrots and cut them into circles that are about 1" thick. Top the carrot circles with cream cheese and press half of a black olive in into the center of the cheese. They will look like red eyes and whenever someone accidentally touches the cream cheese part of those eyeballs, they're going to be really scared.

An important part of a Halloween party entertainment is the kind of drinks you're going to serve to your guests. In order to make sure your guests won't get thirsty and, at the same time, match your party theme, you're going to prepare some evilish drinks.

One of the most popular types of Halloween-ish drinks is the blood of a witch. In order to prepare that type of beverage, you'll need:

• Milk
• Green food coloring
• Peppermint

The recipe is quite easy: mix all ingredients and expect that your witch blood and its peppermint flavor will please your guests to the point they're going to ask you for more.

A great idea is to prepare a large bowl of witch blood, decorate it with some floating eyeballs made out of litchis and cherries. Chances are that such an arrangement will make your Halloween party worth visiting.
