Halloween Truth or Scare Game
When I was growing up, I feel like every time I went to a party or a sleepover, we ended up playing truth or dare. It was like a rite of passage to tell someone who your crush was as an answer to a truth or do something embarrassing during a dare.
Some of my funniest childhood moments were during a game of truth or dare. Or while playing one of these party games!
I thought it would be fun to put together a list of Halloween inspired truth or dare questions – clean ones that work for all ages whether you’re looking for truth or dare questions for kids, tweens, teens or even adults!
Instead of calling it Truth or Dare, this game is called Truth or Scare.
Same game – just Halloween inspired name and cards. And one of my favorite Halloween party ideas ever!
And this time instead of having to come up with good truth and dare questions to ask – you can just pick a card from the pile because I already came up with all of them for you!
Halloween Truth or Dare Questions
Whether you’re looking for truth or dare questions for kids or adults, these work great! They’re clean, funny, and sometimes embarrassing (if that’s what you want!) If there are any you don’t want to use, just don’t add them into the game!
And if you’re headed to somewhere the dares aren’t possible like Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, you could always just print out the truth cards and take those along for while you stand in line!

More Truth or Dare Questions
If you’re looking for more generic truth or dare questions, here are a couple of good lists!
Halloween Truth or Dare Game Prep
Supplies:
- Truth or Scare Cards (PDF located at the bottom of this post)
- Scissors or paper cutter (I love this one for small things like this)
- Two Halloween paper bags
- Candy (some of the dares require candy)
- Optional: Laminating sheets and laminator
Setup:
- Print out the Halloween Truth or Dare questions PDF (get at the bottom of this post)
- Optional – laminate cards prior to playing so you can keep them and play every year
- Cut out the cards, keeping the truth and scare cards separate
- Put all of the truth cards into a bag labeled “Truth”
- Put all of the scare cards into a bag labeled “Scare”
How to Play Truth or Dare (Scare)
Pick someone to go first. That person has to decide whether or not they want to choose truth or scare.
If they choose truth, they without looking, pick a card out of the truth bag and answer the question honestly.
If they choose scare, they have to take one of the scares out of the scare bag and do it. Some of the dare questions are things they’ll have to do immediately and then it’s the next person’s turn. Others are things that may be a little longer – if it’s one of the latter dare questions, have the next person go ahead with their turn – don’t wait.
Keep playing until everyone has had a turn to choose one of the truth or dare questions then decide whether you want to do another round or not.
How to Win Truth or Dare
There’s no winner in truth or scare! It’s just a fun game full of great truth or dare questions to add a little fun to a Halloween party. It’d be perfect to play along with one of these Halloween party games.
If you want to give people a little something just for playing, any of these Halloween favors are always a fun addition to any party!
Get the PDF of Truth or Dare Questions
Enter your first name and email address in the form below to get the free set of printable truth and scare cards. The PDF will include both a front of the card (truth or scare) and back of the card (actual questions/dares).
If you’d rather not provide your email, you can also purchase a set of these cards in my shop here.
You can either print them double-sided (they should line up when you print) OR if you want to just skip the truth/scare part, you could always just print them with blank backs. Totally up to you.
Or the other option would be to print the PDF single-sided and laminate the front and back to each other. Then you have laminated cards with the design + questions in one.
Totally up to you. I provide the PDF – you decide what to do with it!
If you want the questions just on their own, not in card form, the PDF also has a printable list of truth and dare questions. The cards are more fun but I get that it’s easier to just have the questions! If you do the list of questions, you could just have someone pick a number 1-50 and ask them that truth or dare.
