5 Haunting Twilight Party Games

By Aaron Hu

Many fans are looking forward to the Premiere of New Moon this November. The movie is the second film adaptation of the Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer. In New Moon, Bella and her vampire boyfriend Edward face a new snag or two in their relationship. Edward is convinced by near fatal incident at his home that the vampire world and their relationship are too dangerous for Bella. So he pretends that he doesn't lover and leaves Forks. Bella is devastated and looks to her friend Jacob Black for comfort. Ironically it seems that Jacob is a supernatural being himself and the danger that Edward wants to protect her from will come from an unexpected source. As a fan many will celebrate by having a Twilight themed party. Here are some interesting games you and your guests can play as entertainment.

Any good Twilight fan worth their salt is good at Twilight trivia. A good party game is to have a trivia game like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. Have prizes for winners who prove to be adept at knowing about all things Twilight. You can also use other game show formats that may be more fitting for your guests.

In the series vampires are known to movie at superhuman speeds. Unfortunately many people can't do that. You can imitate it though with a game of flashlight tag. You can make the game interesting by having guests split up in groups. You can also try a flashlight tag version of capture the flag. This will give you some very fun ways to imitate vampires.

Another game you can play is Truth or Dare. In New Moon we find out that Jacob is part of tribe of werewolves. One of their interesting traits is that everyone can share each other's minds constantly so everyone knows each other's deepest secrets. So play a game of truth of dare with questions based off of similar situations in New Moon and Twilight. This will prove to be an interesting game as you see how much of their secrets they are willing to share.

Vampires also have a keen sense of hearing and an awareness of their surroundings. Another great game idea is to play Twilight red light green light. Pick someone as the individual who will call out red light and green light. Just like a traffic signal, the caller say green light everyone else playing can move towards him. If the caller calls red light then the players have to freeze in position and stay that way. Otherwise, they will be disqualified. The twist lies in that the caller is blindfolded and must rely on hearing and other senses to be know when players are approaching. The first person to reach the caller will be the winner.

You can also look to more traditional games like Bingo. Have Bingo cards made with images of characters in the movie. Then have an old fashioned game of bingo. The first person to get all five characters in a row and call out Bingo will be the winner. This is just one of many simple Twilight games that you can play at your party.

You will find many of the suggested games to be great ways to entertain friends and make your party a more likely success.
