Have you started planning your Halloween party yet? Maybe you are attending a gathering and have been asked to bring an appetizer or spooky treat. Here are 5 frightfully delicious Halloween snacks to wow ghouls and goblins of all ages.

Halloween snacks range from simple ghost shaped cookies and tortilla chips to elaborate caldrons or crooks with dry ice pouring out. I have a friend who loves "blood themed" foods. She starts with a pot of red sauce.

It's simple because you can put anything in there and give it a spooky name. noodles become brain matter and ribs become werewolf bones. You get the picture.

It's a great excuse to get creative in the kitchen with food themes too. There are lots of ordinary sweet treats doctored up to look like eyeballs, severed fingers made with charcuterie, and so much more.

I'm not a fan of food coloring or food that looks gross but tastes great. However, that is the cornerstone for Halloween events. You will find a mixed bag here.

Halloween snacks, when keeping with the theme can be super creative, fun and somewhat easy. Like these cookies, You just need to have some skills with icing and you are set. Getty Images

This has become a social media favorite. I tried something similar last year with pizza dough and pizza toppings as the filling. This looks even easier.
