You can issue a Halloween prize or treat for each child who correctly guesses and spells the word correctly.

Halloween Hangman Variations

Halloween Hangman Mix-Up is variation of the traditional Hangman game. It is played in the same way, except the word that you are spelling is all mixed up and spelled incorrectly.

This is a great way to reinforce good spelling skills.

Halloween Hangman With a Foreign Language
