Plan your Halloween party in 3 steps

  1. Create your list

    Name your party and add what the night needs: spooky snacks, drinks, decorations, pumpkins, cups, a speaker. Anything you do not want to buy alone.

  2. Share the link

    Drop one link into the group chat or the invite. Guests open it on any phone, no app and no account.

  3. Everyone claims something

    Each guest puts their name next to what they will bring. You watch the list fill up live and see what is still open the week before.

Everything a Halloween host needs

Always free

Who brings what, in writing

Guests put their name next to an item. No more "I thought you were doing the punch" at seven on the night.

Live updates

The list updates in real time. Someone just claimed the fog machine? Everyone sees it instantly.

Auto-organized categories

Snacks, drinks, decorations and supplies get grouped automatically, so the gaps are obvious at a glance.

Vote on the theme

Haunted house or slasher night? Let the group vote before anyone buys a single cobweb.

Amounts that add up

Ask for "3 bags of ice" or "40 cups" and see exactly how much is covered as guests sign up.

Share anywhere

WhatsApp, Instagram, email or the group chat. One link works everywhere.

Guided invites

Send a proper invite instead of a bare link: guests RSVP, pick what they are bringing and answer your costume question in one flow.

Print the list

Download it as a PDF for the fridge, or to take shopping the day before.

Guided invites

Send a proper invite instead of a bare link: guests RSVP, pick what they are bringing and answer your costume question in one flow.

Throw the party. Skip the spreadsheet.

Every Halloween host knows the pattern: the group chat fills up with "what should I bring?", you answer the same question eleven times, and on the night there are four bowls of candy, no ice and nobody brought cups.

What to bring to a Halloween party

A Halloween party runs on more than food. There are the spooky snacks and the punch, but also the ice, the cups, the cobwebs and carved pumpkins, the playlist, the speaker and whatever the costume contest needs. A shared list puts all of it in one place so guests can see what is still open and claim it themselves, instead of asking you.

Halloween potluck, without five desserts

Nothing gets doubled: Once someone claims the punch, it is taken. You end up with a balanced table instead of three trays of brownies.

Nobody has to ask you: Guests open the link, see the gaps and pick one. The "what should I bring?" messages stop.

The boring stuff gets covered: Ice, cups, bin bags and the speaker are what actually get forgotten. On a list they are visible, so someone claims them.

No account, no app: Your guests click a link and they are in. Nothing to download the week of the party.

FAQ

Halloween party planning: frequently asked questions

Is it rude to ask guests to bring something to a Halloween party?

Not at all, as long as you make it easy and optional. A shared list does that for you: guests see what is still needed and pick something that suits their budget and effort, rather than being handed an assignment.

How do I ask guests to bring food without sounding pushy?

Share the list alongside the invite with a line like "grab anything off here if you like". Because the list shows what is already covered, it reads as an offer rather than a demand, and nobody feels singled out.

How do I stop everyone bringing dessert?

Add the items you actually need, so the gaps are visible. Once the punch and the ice are claimed, the next guest sees that desserts are covered and picks something else. Categories group the list into snacks, drinks, decorations and supplies so the imbalance is obvious.

What should be on a Halloween party list?

Snacks and finger food, drinks, ice and cups, decorations and pumpkins, a speaker or playlist, and anything the costume contest needs. Do not forget bin bags and kitchen roll: they are the things nobody thinks of until midnight.

Can guests add their own ideas to the list?

Yes. Let guests add items themselves if you want the menu to grow, or keep the list curated and let them only claim what you put on it. Your call, and you can change it any time.

Is whobrings free for Halloween parties?

Yes. Creating and sharing a Halloween party list is completely free, with no account, no credit card and no limit on the number of guests.
