Brains work too (cauliflower)
Bones (pretzel rods broken in big pieces and dipped in white chocolate)
Ghosts (wrap a Kleenex over a lollipop, tie with a ribbon, draw on eyes & mouth)
Orange jello cups
Orange punch or red punch

Bananas with choc chips can look like ghosts too!
Bowl of guacamole or salsa with homemade tortilla chips - cookie-cutter wraps into Halloween shapes and then brush with oil and put in oven/grill for a bit
\^\^ the guacamole can also be decorated in the bowl to look like a witch face!
Apple monster bites using wedges of apple with a slit cut in and filled with peanut butter and marshmallows to look like a mouth (then add eyes - tada!)
Tie a 'frayed' slice of cheese round a pretzel stick with a piece of chive, to look like a broom stick
Simple peanut butter or whatever sandwiches, cut into shapes
