Twenty Halloween words hide in this 15 × 15 grid: pumpkin, witch, cauldron, werewolf, cobweb, trick and treat. It suits children aged about 8 to 12, with words running across, down and diagonally but never backwards. Good for a class party, a trick-or-treat bag or the hour before dark on 31 October.

What’s in the PDF

  • Page 1: the 15 × 15 grid (words run across, down and diagonally, never backwards) and the list of 20 words to find.
  • Page 2: the answer key, with every word highlighted.
  • Black and white, US Letter with 18 mm margins, so it also prints on A4 at 100 % scale.

Tip: Look for rare letters first: W (witch, werewolf, cobweb), K (skeleton, pumpkin, spooky) and Z (zombie) narrow the search quickly.
