Free Halloween Printable Game

This Halloween printable game includes everything you need to get started:

  • Printable Halloween game board
  • 10 Halloween Would You Rather question cards
  • Printable game pieces/tokens
  • Easy-to-follow game instructions

Just print the pages, cut out the question cards and game pieces, grab a die, and you’re ready to play.

How to Play the Halloween Board Game

The goal is simple: be the first player to reach the end of the game board!

1. Choose Your Game Piece

Each player chooses a character to use as their game token.

The printable includes fun Halloween-themed characters, including:

  • Spider
  • Needoh pumpkin
  • Mike Wazowski
  • Barbie in an orange coat
  • Black cat

Cut out the characters and use one as your game piece.

2. Roll the Die

Players take turns rolling the die and moving their game piece the corresponding number of spaces.

3. Climb the Ladders

If you land on a square at the bottom of a ladder, climb up to the square at the top!

4. Slide Down the Snakes

If you land on a square with a snake’s head, slide down to the square at the tail.

5. Answer a Halloween Question

If you land on a square with a star, another player or the “Quizmaster” will draw a Halloween Would You Rather card and read the question aloud.

The player must answer the question in a complete and correct sentence before continuing the game.

This makes the game more than just a board game โ€” it’s also a simple way to encourage kids to practice speaking and forming complete sentences.

Halloween Would You Rather Questions

The printable includes 10 silly Halloween Would You Rather questions.

Here are a few examples:

Would you rather wake up with pumpkin-shaped feet or bat wings for ears?

Would you rather have glowing green hair for a month or orange skin for a week?

Would you rather have candy corn for teeth or marshmallows for fingers?

Would you rather be able to fly on a broom but only 2 feet off the ground, or turn invisible but only for 10 seconds?

The questions are designed to be funny and imaginative without being overly scary, making them a great choice for elementary-aged kids.

What You Need

You only need a few simple supplies:

  • The printable Halloween game board
  • A die
  • The Halloween Would You Rather question cards
  • One game piece/token for each player

You can print everything on regular printer paper. For a sturdier game board, print it on cardstock or laminate it for repeated use.

A Fun Halloween Game for Kids

This printable Halloween board game is a great activity when you need something that’s easy to pull out and play.

It can work especially well for:

  • Halloween classroom parties
  • Homeschool activities
  • Babysitting
  • Playdates
  • Halloween parties
  • Elementary students
  • Early finishers
  • Family game night
  • After-school activities
  • Screen-free Halloween fun

It’s also easy to play with different group sizes. For a small group, kids can take turns drawing the questions for one another. For a larger group, one person can be the “Quizmaster” and read the questions aloud.

Why Kids Will Love This Halloween Game

The best part is that the game isn’t exactly the same every time.

The dice determine how quickly players move around the board, while the ladders and snakes can send players unexpectedly forward or backward. Then the star spaces add another element with the Halloween Would You Rather questions.

Kids never quite know which silly question they’ll get next!

The questions also give kids an opportunity to explain their choices rather than simply picking an answer.

For example:

“I would rather have bat wings for ears because…”

That makes the game a fun way to practice speaking, listening, and complete sentences while still feeling like play.
