The best part? They’re all totally customizable, so check out these 33 Halloween shots for ideas, then have some spooky fun creating your own.
When it comes to Halloween party shots, we think Jell-O is the way to go. It’s already a little weird and creepy, so it does most of the work for you. It’s als0 strangely versatile—turn it into a massive party shot to share, like in our brain big batch Jell-O shot or our bloody big batch Fireball Jell-O shot; give it wild colors or fun shapes, like in our candy corn Jell-O shots (even mellow creme haters will love these) or our Hocus Pocus Jell-O shots; or serve it in seasonal fruit, like in our Fireball apple Jell-O shots or our caramel apple Jell-O shots. Feel free to mix and match here too—Jell-O comes in a variety of fun flavors you can sub in to these recipes as you like.
Not feeling the Jell-O? You could go just a little less solid with one of our many pudding shots, like our pumpkin pie pudding shots, our caramel apple pudding shots, or our Reese’s pudding shots. Or go for more of a two-sip situation with our Fun Dip shots, our Washington apple shots, our Jolly Rancher shots, or our apple pie bourbon shots. Looking for something totally wild? Grab a blacklight and some tonic water, then take inspo from our cotton candy shots to turn it into a shot that GLOWS.
