Create Fun Pictures with Your Own Halloween Photo Booth
25th October 2016
Halloween photo booths are ideal when hosting Halloween parties for your friends or even your littles ones. At Magees, we are big fans of dressing up and throwing a party. So this year up your game and create your very own Halloween photo booth. It is very simple to do, and it keeps your guests entertained.
You can go for the spooky one or the classic family friendly one! So pick a corner or a wall and start creating a spooktacular Halloween Photo Booth.
How to make the Halloween photo booth:
Main supplies:
- Plastic or paper table covers, thin curtains or white sheets.
- Paint (red mainly)
- Fairy lights
- Coloured card
- Scissors
- Small nails
- Halloween decorations
- Heavy duty tape
A few Halloween Photo Booth ideas:
- Blood Bath Photo Booth
- Classic Family friendly Photo Booth Just pick black paper or curtains, and attach little Halloween themed cut-outs. That can be a fun activity to do with your children! Pumpkins and bats are very common and so easy to do. If you feel you need to be challenged go for the skeletons.
- Scary Photo Booth
Use some old white sheets for the sides and top of your photo booth, then put loads of red paint on your hands and wipe your hands all over them, also add hand prints. Then splatter some paint all over. You will have so much fun doing this.
I did this Halloween photo booth in the past. I loved creating it and was very happy with the result. Very simple as well as quick to do. Although you will need to have a long shower to clean off afterwards.
Our tip: write some words like ‘Help me’, ‘help’, ‘hell’ to make it even scarier.
Hang a few on your photo booth wall to decorate it.
You have many options here, just leave your creativity take over! My personal favourite is making a coffin out of cardboard boxes, painting it in black and adding extra details, then use cotton to create spider webs.
And maybe add a vintage chair (dark red maybe) in the middle. Add some accessories like candles, skulls, black gates, crosses, skeletons, and fairy lights etc. Anything you find that’s spooky.
Halloween photo booth props:
Do not forget to add a basket with some photo booth props if you want to go for the fun Halloween one rather than the spooky one. You can buy ready made ones or simply download some Party props. You can also make them yourself if you’re feeling creative!
Printing out your photos:
Why not create nice keepsakes of your Halloween party with our photobooks or photo collages. You could also print them out on several items to create nice personalised gifts for your friends to remember your amazing party!
