Halloween word searches to play online or print, built for classroom parties, trick-or-treat wind-downs and quiet October afternoons. Each grid hides the words you would expect to find in the season — pumpkins, witches, skeletons, candy — running across, down and diagonally.
Every puzzle names its directions before you start, so there is never any guessing about whether words can run backwards. Drag from a word's first letter to its last to mark it; found words are struck off the list and highlighted on the grid as you go.
All of these are free and printable. The Print button on any puzzle page gives you a clean black-and-white sheet, with the answer grid on a separate page, so you can hand out the puzzle and keep the answers to yourself.
