Halloween Treasure Hunt Clues

A Halloween treasure hunt is the perfect party game for little monsters: a trail of clues, a few giggly ghosts and a bucket of treats at the end. Our clue maker keeps the spooky dial on “friendly”, with pumpkins, bats and costumes and nothing that will cause nightmares.

Hide the treats first, type your hiding spots in order, and you'll get one Halloween clue per spot. Print the cards, tuck them into place and hand the first one to your trick-or-treaters.
