2. Spooky Spider Deviled Eggs
Put a creepy twist on classic deviled eggs with this spooky recipe. After boiling and peeling your eggs, cut them in half and scoop out the yolks to make the filling.

3. Haunted Hummus
This spooky hummus is a perfect appetizer for vegan or vegetarian guests. Simply mix canned chickpeas, tahini paste, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper, and a dash of olive oil in a food processor until smooth.
