🎥 Set up a Halloween Movie Night Table
With Halloween popcorn bags and a few decorative items, it’s easy to put together a spooky movie night table!
- Make a simple wall decoration. Cut out the letters for the word “BOO” from an inexpensive black styrofoam board.
- When taping decorations to a wall, protect the paint: use blue tape.
- Cover a small table with a white tablecloth. You can also use a white sheet that’s been folded in half.

- Use a crate, box, or cake stand to create interest and height.
- Set up a few Halloween decorations.
- Display your festive movie night treat bags.
- Add two black spider webs to each end of the table. Set them up in an artful way.

- Set out an extra batch of popcorn candy mix in a black caldron or a large bowl.

- Add a festive splash of color by placing the three types of M&M’S® in small bowls or shallow plates.

- For a stylish movie night table, keep things simple and uncluttered. This is one of those times when less is more! The focal point should be the Halloween popcorn bags filled with Halloween treat mix.
