This is where I placed the party favors, which were lucky rabbit's foot keychains. The trivia game cards (and box for completed cards) were here, along with a guest book.
Once guests entered the building, they saw a table adorned with several items for the party. Near the entrance, I played a looped recording of the song "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder which welcomed the guests in a humorous way. (Note that we rented space in a large, old house for this party. This definitely set the tone for the evening, and guests knew what they were in for the second they arrived. Guests were encouraged to walk under the ladder in order to get to the party. The decorations were so fun for this party! To start off, I got the biggest ladder I could find and put it outside the entrance to the building. Unfortunately, nobody came away a lottery millionaire, but one guest did win $20! It was the perfect prize to really encapsulate the ideas of luck and superstition. Our superstition party game prizes were lottery tickets tucked into a lucky Chinese red envelopes. If the answers were all correct, that person won a prize. Our party guests put their completed cards in a box, and Michelle drew one every half hour or so. To use our free printable Superstition Game Cards just download the PDF, print enough for your cards guests (plus one copy of the included answer sheet for you), and cut them out. I came up with an unlucky 13 questions (gotta keep up with the theme!) about superstitions, and designed a simple printable card, which I'm happy to share with you all! Michelle has a lot of friends, so I ended up making 50 invites!įor a fun icebreaker to get the guests talking, we set out a superstition trivia game. Be sure to check out my full Friday the 13th party invitation tutorial for details. To really set the tone right away for this party, I designed an invitation featuring a broken mirror. They can all be used for a Halloween party, Friday the 13th party, or any superstition-themed event. We held nothing back, and filled the party with so many traditionally unlucky things that a lot of guests had to admit they were a little nervous being there! I'm going to share with you all the goodies I created for the party, including the invitations, centerpieces, decorations, and menu ideas.
Throughout the entire party space, I focused on superstition and luck. I love unique spins on classic holiday party themes, and a Halloween superstition party exactly fits the bill. What we ended up with a fun and superstition-themed party that was not only great for her Friday the 13th birthday, but would also make a unique, non-scary Halloween party theme. She wanted to embrace the superstitions associated with Friday the 13th, so she told me to go all out on lucky and unlucky party elements. My friend Michelle turned 40 on Friday the 13th, and asked me to help her plan the party.
