You have to find Halloween trivia questions for a Halloween quiz night, and the finding of them is not all that difficult: a simple Google search should give you what you need, but compiling these into a quiz is not so easy.

It’s coming up to Halloween time now, and lots of people are thinking of holding a Halloween quiz for a bit of fun. Maybe you are having a party, and intend to ask a few Halloween trivia questions just for fun or even for prizes. Perhaps your club or local pub or bar has asked you to arrange a quiz for their patrons, or may you even intend to hold a Halloween quiz inight n your own bar as something a bit different at this time of year.

For each of these situations your quiz night has to be interesting and entertaining, and not too difficult. Sure it has to sort the men out from the boys, but you don’t want everybody scratching their heads at every question. You would be surprised at how many quizmasters believe a quiz should be a contest between them and the contestants or audience.

That includes a Halloween quiz that should be for sheer fun, with a few prizes thrown in for the best and worst teams: yes, worst, because every quiz should also have a booby prize. I always do that, and rather than feeling disgraced or embarrassed, by introducing that simple prize, the bottom teams appear to have a sense of pride at wining something, and you often find the second last disappointed at not being last!

There is a solution to that as well: a contest. Something simple, such as throwing a coin nearest to the wall. That allows even the poorest teams to take part with enjoyment. However, for a Halloween quiz, it is the Halloween trivia questions that really make it what it should be. It’s OK copying a load of questions from the internet, but how easy or difficult are they – how balanced?

Keep in mind that for a proper quiz you need more than just 20 questions. You need rounds, and each Halloween quiz round should have a theme. Such as Halloween monsters, Halloween myths or Halloween movies – plenty of these around! No, there is a lot more to com[piling any quiz than just collecting loads of questions and presenting them in rounds of 10 or 20.

Halloween trivia questions should be graded between easy and difficult and presented in the quiz from the easiest down. Yes, I know, ‘any question is easy if you know the answer’ – how many times have I heard that! We all know that, but I think that we also all know that on balance some questions are harder to answer than others. The difference between the square root of 4 and the square root of 559,441 is easy and hard! So there smarty pants!

Just keep in mind that when you present a quiz you are entertaining the participants. You are not trying to beat them, and you are not trying to show how clever you are. You want them to come back next year, or even to some of the other quizzes you might host throughout the year.

So choose your Halloween trivia questions wisely, with a good balance between the simple, the logical and the guessable, and they will thank for a Halloween quiz that they enjoyed and gave everybody a wonderfully entertaining evening.
