Halloween Riddle Hunt
Solve the Riddle - Find the Item

If you like a challenge, then this Halloween Riddle Hunt is for you. Divide participants into teams and give each team a list of riddles. Teams must solve the riddles and find as many of the items as possible in the allotted time. 

Halloween Riddle Hunt Black Cat and Jack-o-lantern

Hide the items on your property or have the teams go out searching for them in the highways and byways, around town, or house to house. Anyway you choose to play, it will be a challenge to both solve the clues and find the items. (You probably won't have to worry about a tie.) 

So set a time limit, hand out the riddle sheets, and LET THE HUNT BEGIN! The team that finds the most items in the time allotted WINS!
