We're hosting a party for the family here for Halloween. It's going to be on a Sunday afternoon. I'm thinking about getting a Servatii pretzel sandwich, but would like to have some Halloween themed foods. Any ideas? Also, if you have any fun drink ideas that would be great too! (Alcohol is ok!)

Some cute cupcakes are a must! You can make buckey balls that you decorate as eye balls (just use white chocolate and then you can use edible markers to paint on the eye if you don't want to get technical with the different colored chocolates. Time consuming, but you can make those days in advance and keep them in the fridge/freezer.
I always love jungle juice for the alcohol drinkers (not halloween themed but you could put some spiders or something in the juice to float for decoration.
You could make pigs in a blanket to look like mummies or you can make them look like toes. For the mummy just take the crescent roll and cut it in thin strips and wrap it around either hot dogs or cocktail weiners. Use 2 dots of mustard for eyes. For toes you do the same thing but make a toe nail on one end with ketchup.
I also saw these online when I googled halloween food and they look cute and could be made on crackers instead of muffins so they would be smaller. https://familyfun.go.com/halloween/halloween-recipes/halloween-dinners/pizza-mummies-688188/
I have a few cookbooks (like the ones from the checkout at the supermarket) that have Halloween ideas from back in the day when we had a huge Halloween block party each year. Some are adorable, like the breadstick spiders and the "Mummy" dogs (pigs in a blanket).

Amy on Q102 did mini cheese balls with tortilla chip wings and they looked like bats. She rolled them in sesame seeds or something so they looked black and used the red pit of an olive as the eye or you can use a bit of a red bell pepper as the eye. https://amystable.com/2010/10/08/halloween-treat-bitty-bats/. Her website has some other cute ideas too like white fudge gravestones.
I also saw something in one of the coupon flyers this weekend for a pigs in the blanket recipe, but they were mummy's in a blanket.
