  2. Snap Apple
    Another good game to play at Hallow - Eve is "Snap-Apple". Get an apple and a piece of cord, bore a hole in the apple and put the cord through it; then put a knot on the end of the cord and tie it to the ceiling and spin it around. Then tie a person's hands behind his back and he has to try and catch the apple in his mouth. If he does so, he gets the apple.
