There are plenty of kid-friendly entertainers that any guest will love. Believe it or not, a fortune teller, psychic or tarot card reader would make a great addition to a Halloween party geared toward kids. 

The kids (and adults) will be amazed to hear what’s in store for their future! Even if you're hosting a virtual Halloween party this year, you can still hire these mystical entertainers by booking a digital session instead!

What’s a party without music? Even if you're just hosting a small get together in the backyard this Halloween, put your iPhone down and leave the playlist up to the professional DJ. They’ll be able to provide a variety of Halloween favorites (we’re talking “The Monster Mash” and The Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack) as well as today’s top hits.

As if Halloween isn’t magical enough, book a magician to kick it up a notch. A mysterious magician can provide some tricks and treats on the spot to keep all guests engaged. Some even offer a virtual experience, in case you're looking to keep the guest list smaller this Halloween.

This is the perfect way to capture a boo-tiful photo op. Book an open-air photo booth for some fun with the kids and adults. Don’t forget the Halloween-themed props. The photo booth printouts are a great keepsake for friends to take home too.
