Alright, so if there’s a Halloween party to be planned, napkins are a given. You simply must have them and you can colour theme as you please. But napkins at a Halloween party have a particularly challenging job, one that should be respected and awed. They're not just for mopping up spilt drinks and serving canapes. Halloween napkins will stifle the horrified screams of your guests as they encounter an unexpected zombie. They'll reassure little fingers that just came into contact with worms (canned spaghetti) and petrified rat tails (pretzel sticks). When things get messy during the course of the evening (and with all the fake blood, face paint and the occasional bout of tears, they are bound to get a bit messy), it will be these spider-covered, pumpkin-laden black and orange beauties that make it all better. So buy in bulk, just to be safe.
