No need to spend on elaborate Halloween costumes this season. For this Halloween party game you will need newspapers and blindfolds. If your guests are too easily frightened then this game would not be suitable for your party. As you will know, Moriarty is from the Sherlock Holmes novels and our professor will be re-enacting people's life and death struggles at Reichenbauch, via role play.
We will not be having Holmes and Moriarty attacking each other with rolled up editions of the Workers Press.
Our game will take place between 2 players with other party members willing them on from the sidelines. Both our players are blindfolded and lie face down on the floor each holding the others left wrist. In their right hand they will hold a rolled up newspaper.
The game starts by one contestant saying "Are you there Moriarty?" The other replies "yes", and the asking person has 1 attempt to hit him with the newspaper. Our 2nd player has a chance to slither away, before the swipe lands on him. If he is caught by the newspaper, the game is won and he loses. If the strike misses, it is the turn of the 2nd player to ask the question. As each contest ends, others from the party take a turn. It is a rowdy game and quite physical, but in the end, harmless, and it will certainly raise the temperature of your Halloween gathering.
You could now lower the temperature after this physical activity, by playing a more friendlier type of game called The Orange Relay.
The Orange Relay is an old favorite probably because it is brings so much fun and laughter.Your party goers pair up. It is important the pairs are of similar height because they will be holding an orange between each others forehead. On starting the game, pair 1 will walk together for 5 yards and attempt not to drop the orange. After they cross the line, the next couple starts. This continues with all couples taking their turn. The team to drop the orange the fewest times, wins.
