What are some good Halloween party food ideas?
I am planning a Halloween party this years for kids ranging in age from 13 to 18. I would love to hear of some fun ideas for food. The only thing I have come up with so far is cupcakes with spiders drawn on them. Please help!

One of the best Halloween party menus I suggest you try your hand on is the Pumpkin-Shaped Chocolate Cake, this cake recipe is perfect for your party. This cake completes the your list of recipes since it is pumpkin shaped. I am sure if you served this cake during the Halloween, kids and adults alike would crave until there is nothing left.
Pumpkin-Shaped Chocolate Cake recipe is easy to prepare and most ingredients can be purchased at your local grocery stores. This recipe has a preparation time of 20 minutes, cooking time of 25 minutes and makes a total of 20 servings.
Here is my Pumpkin-Shaped Chocolate Cake recipe, courtesy of delish.com:
Ingredients
2 package(s) (18.25-oz.) chocolate cake mix, plus additional ingredients as directed on package
1 1/4 cup(s) confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon(s) (light) corn syrup
4 teaspoon(s) milk
red and yellow food coloring , or orange, if available, optional
1/3 cup(s) chocolate frosting
1 wafer ice cream cone
1 small tube green decorating icing , optional
edible leaf or petal sugar decorations, for garnish, optional
Directions
1. Mist two standard 12-cup Bundt cake pans with nonstick cooking spray. Prepare cake mixes as package label directs for 2 Bundt cakes. Bake as directed. Cool in pans for 10 minutes, then invert cakes onto wire racks to cool completely. You can also prepare cakes one at a time using the same pan.
2. Meanwhile, prepare glaze: In a small bowl, stir confectioners’ sugar, corn syrup and 4 tsp. milk together with a fork until smooth. Blend in remaining 1 tsp. milk, if necessary, for desired consistency. If you like, use food coloring to tint glaze orange, or just leave glaze white.
3. Trim the flat side of each cake with a serrated knife so it’s even. Place one cake, rounded side down, on a serving plate. Spread chocolate frosting on top (not a thick layer, just enough to hold the two cakes together). Position second cake on top of the first, flat side down.
4. Stir glaze again and drizzle over cake. Invert ice cream cone into hole in top of cake to make the pumpkin’s stem. If you like, use green icing to decorate the cone and arrange edible leaf decorations around it.

Try this Halloween Treat! It looks "spooky cool" and everyone loves it!
Buy plastic gloves (thin see thru, restaurant serving style type) - You can get these at restaurant supply stores or cooking stores.
Pop some microwave popcorn
Purchase one bag of Candy Corn
Place one candycorn in each fingertip of the glove. Continue to fill the fingers and glove with popcorn. Tie with a black ribbon when it looks full enough to resemble A WITCH'S HAND! Place these HANDS on a black tablecloth sprinkled with gummy worms and/or spider rings.
