If there is something strange in your neighborhood, who you gonna call? You know what to say: Ghostbusters! This iconic movie from my younger days is making a comeback in theaters this summer! The fun-filled concept of quirky characters saving the world from ghosts is back! Whether you are wanting to watch the newest version with your sweetie, or pull out the classic originals, we have a date night for you! We have invitations, snacks,and activity and more!
All of the printables for this date night were created by the talented Leslie from Nina Bean Designs. She can design anything you can think up! I mean – just look at the Ghost Trap Snack Box later on. How amazing is that? And if you think that is cool, you should check out her Etsy shop. She has so many beautiful things! INVITATION
Start by inviting your spouse with this classic Ghostbuster logo invitation! The ghost can be cut out and placed inside the red “no” symbol.
The back side of the ghost has all of the information about your date. If you are going to see the movie in the theaters, you could slide the tickets in the slot as well! SNACKS Whether watching in the theater or at home, you will definitely want to enjoy some delicious snacks. With these fun printables, you can enjoy your snacks Ghostbusters style!
For example. we have these Ectoplasm Energy Drinks (aka Sprite or Mt. Dew soda with a drink wrap attached)!
Or these Ghost Trap Treat Holders – perfect for popcorn! If you REALLY want to go all out you could even make some yummy SLIME popcorn!
Finally, we have some Ghostbuster logos that can be added to any of your favorite treats: cupcakes (just attach them to a toothpick), movie theater candy, or my personal favorite for the night’s theme, green slimy Jell-o! ACTIVITY
The movie itself is the main event, but for additional fun, you can play what I like to call Feed Slimer! (Psst … make sure to print this out on sturdy card stock so that it will last through even the most intense game) Get a bag of marshmallows and take turns with your spouse attempting to throw marshmallows into Slimer’s mouth! Sounds easier than it is! INTIMATE INVITATION
Finally, after the movie invite your spouse back to the bedroom with the suggestive invitation to (ahem…) cross proton streams! Your spouse will get the hint. Get some glow sticks for the invitation, but also for some fun in the bedroom! ADDITIONAL IDEAS: There are so many fun things you can do for this date night. Here are a few more ideas:
Pull out the Halloween decorations and decorate the house with cobwebs, ghosts and more. Make Ghostbuster badges using THIS website. Eat some marshmallows in honor of the Marshmallow Man. Get some marshmallow guns and have a marshmallow fight. Make some DIY slime and play with it during the movie. Go to a haunted house to get in the scared mood.
So fun, right? A classic movie and all the personal touches to make for a fun date night! All of these clever printables can be downloaded right here!
