The Nightmare Before Christmas Party Ideas

Whether it’s a Halloween or Christmas party, these Nightmare Before Christmas Party Ideas will come in handy. You’ll be on your way to having the best Oogie Boogie Bash of them all in no time!

Having an October baby? Check out this Nightmare Before Christmas Baby Shower we threw for our daughter. It turned out so cool!

A few of the DIY things we have made ourself includes Sally Potion Punches including Worm’s Wart, Deadly Nightshade and Frog’s Breath.

The Deadly Night Shade was basically a Mojito Punch recipe.

We used the Walmart Beverage Dispenser here for the Deadly Night Shade above.

The Worm’s Wort was a purple punch (we added vodka to it).

The Frog’s Breath was our Grinch Punch recipe and was a huge hit! We added vodka to this one as well.

For the Worm’s Wort and Frog’s Breath drinks, we used a Walmart Farmhouse-style drink dispenser (which they no longer sell). I did find this Farmhouse Style Drink Dispenser on Amazon which is extremely similar to what we used.

I made the labels in a Word doc and then printed and taped them to the front of the drink dispensers. I just Googled the images online and then made them large enough to fit the front of the drink dispensers.

We also made different candy offerings:

These Oogie Boogie dirt cups were super simple to make. Just used chocolate pudding, oreo crumbles and then gummy worms.

We did have the animatronic Jack Skellington and the animatronic Sally. Plus, we got the Zero hanging prop as well.

Jack’s Pumpkins were just candy corn pumpkins in a bowl from Dollar Tree.

Sally’s hair was red vines thrown into an upright bucket from Dollar Tree.

We then used a ton of different various Nightmare Before Christmas treats and decorations. I have a list of the ones we used below.

I sure hope your next Nightmare Before Christmas Party is one to remember!
