The magical world of Harry Potter can be used as a theme for a fun and creative Halloween party.

The popularity of both the Harry Potter books and movies is undeniable. Many children start reading full length books with Harry Potter. Just because J.K. Rowling has finished writing the entire series does not mean that the story is any less interesting.

Harry Potter also appeals to a broad range of ages. This is mostly because many older teenagers started reading with the first book and then eagerly anticipated each addition to the series.

Lost of decorations and costumes can be pulled straight out of the world of Harry Potter. For example, ghosts, goblins, witches, wizards, broomsticks, hats, skeletons, spiders, spider webs, magic potions all fit with Halloween and the Harry Potter theme. Other decorative touches that relate directly to Harry Potter include character costumes, Hogwart's items like crests, posters, owls, frogs, etc.

There is a growing interest in the Harry Potter theme as a feature at Halloween, and a corresponding increase in the Harry Potter decorative items available at Halloween time.

Harry Potter Halloween parties can be announced with Harry Potter themed invitations. These can include fonts and images found online that are related to the world of Harry Potter. Make sure that you invitations inform guests of the date, time, and location of the party. In order to make the catering process easier, ask invited guests to RSVP. Don't forget that the parents of your guests need to be informed of safety measurements being taken and transportation arrangements that have been made.

Keep the Harry Potter theme running through the party activities by watching the Harry Potter movies, reading the books, discussing details of the story and films, doing Harry Potter related crafts, playing Harry Potter video games, and looking at fan sites online.

A simple craft project is to provide some wooden dowel and a variety of paints and glitter, and have everyone make a Harry Potter wand for themselves.
