Fun Halloween Pizza Ideas To Make & Enjoy At Home

Who knew cheese and sauce could get so spooky?

You’ve got your costumes ready to go and your kids have mapped out the perfect trick-or-treat route, but do you know what you’ll serve for dinner before you hit the streets? These Halloween pizza ideas are a frighteningly fun way to fill up your crew on the spookiest night of the year.

A creepy vampire or mummy face made from some olives and a few pepperonis is actually way easier to achieve than you might think. All it takes is some creativity and willingness to get a little messy in your own kitchen to create a pizza that’s as spine-chilling as it is delicious. Yes, your kids will still probably pick off the toppings they don’t like (a themed dinner, unfortunately, won’t make their pickiness disappear), but you’ll make some happy holiday memories and could even start a new tradition that your kids will enjoy year after year.

Pizza is one of those universally loved treats that make even the most mundane days feel special — especially when it’s homemade. Even if you already enjoy the blissful simplicity of pizza delivery on a regular basis (hi, it’s me), a make-your-own pizza night can be an exciting way to celebrate Halloween. After all, it’s hard to go wrong with pizza on your dinner menu.

Halloween Ghost Blob Pizza

Get ready to get melty with this recipe for Halloween ghost blob pizza from A Pretty Life In The Suburbs.

Halloween Cookie Pizza

Who says you can’t have pizza for dessert? True pizza lovers know that a cookie pizza is one of the best kinds of pizza there is, and this Halloween-themed dessert pizza from DIY Candy is no exception. The spiderweb design makes it the perfect way to end your celebration on a sweet — but still spooky — note.

Mummy Mini Pizzas

These adorable miniature mummy pizzas from Eating Richly are so easy to make that your kids can pretty much do all of the work themselves. Mozzarella string cheese strips serve as the “wrapping” of the mini mummy faces and olive slices (that your toddler will probably throw on the ground later) make the eyes. They’re almost too cute to eat.

Personalized Halloween Pizzas

Part of the fun of make-your-own pizza night is that it gives each person the opportunity to actually make their pizza exactly the way they want it.

French Bread Mummy Pizza

Spiderweb Halloween Pizza

One easy way to achieve a tasty, yet terrifying Halloween pizza is to adorn a frozen artisan-style pizza with your own additions to create creepy creations like this spiderweb pizza from Baked By Joanna.
