If you love a good Dollar Tree project, these DIY Halloween games are the perfect mix of fun, spooky, and budget-friendly! Every single one of these games was built using supplies from the Dollar Tree — plus a few of my own printable signs you can download for free at the end of this post.
These setups are perfect for:
👻 Classroom parties
🎃 School carnivals
🦇 Family game nights
🧡 Trunk-or-treats or Halloween camping weekends

🕸️ Spooky Halloween Eyeball Toss


This game is so easy to set up and always a hit with younger kids.
What You’ll Need
• Orange Jack-O-Lantern cups (or any plastic cups)
• Ping-pong-style eyeballs
• Foam board or trifold board
• Tablecloth to cover your board (I used a spiderweb print)
• Letter stickers or cute Halloween signs and stickers from Dollar Tree — or use the free printable game sign below!
• Velcro dots to help the cups stay in place
• Optional: Pool rings or glow necklaces if you’d rather toss rings instead of eyeballs
How to Play
1. Tape or Velcro your pumpkin cups to the foam board.
2. Set the board upright or at a slight tilt.
3. Give each player 3–5 eyeballs and have them try to land them in the cups!
💡 Tip: You can assign each cup a point value if you’re keeping score!

💀 Haunted Halloween Skull Toss


This one looks way more elaborate than it is — and it’s made with nothing but foam boards and Dollar Tree décor.
What You’ll Need
• Foam boards or trifold board
• Plastic skulls (you can find them in 8-packs or single larger versions)
• Skeleton hands (regular or glow-in-the-dark)
• Halloween wall border (I used the skull version for extra detail)
• Cute Halloween signs and stickers from Dollar Tree — or use the free printable game sign below!
• Optional: Velcro dots to help skulls stay in place
• Optional: Glow necklaces or small pool rings (for tossing)
How to Play
1. Attach the skulls and hands to your board with Velcro dots.
2. Mark a line on the floor and toss lightweight foam balls, glow rings, or even rolled socks to try to “hook” a skull or land near one.
3. Each skull hit or ring earns points — see who can get the highest score!

🎳 Pumpkin Bowling


This one might be my favorite — it’s bright, festive, and fun for all ages.
What You’ll Need
• Two foam boards (one plain + one covered with a tablecloth)
• Halloween tablecloth (for wrapping)
• Orange jack-o’-lantern cups
• A heavier foam pumpkin (for the bowling ball)
• Cute Halloween signs and stickers from Dollar Tree — or use the free printable game sign below!
• Stickers or Halloween signage for extra decoration
How to Play
1. Use one plain foam board as your base and place another foam board wrapped in a Halloween tablecloth on top as your bowling lane.
2. Stack jack-o’-lantern cups in a triangle at the end.
3. Roll your foam pumpkin down the lane toward the cups and see how many you can knock over!
Variation: For a nighttime event, add glow sticks or glow necklaces around the cups for extra fun.

🍬 Don’t Forget the Prizes!
No Halloween game setup is complete without a little treat for the winners! The Dollar Tree has tons of fun, affordable options — from mini toys and glow bracelets to stickers, pencils, and Halloween candy assortments.
I usually mix a few small toys with wrapped candy so there’s something for everyone. A spooky-cute prize basket or candy cauldron near each game station works perfectly for grab-and-go rewards. 🎃
