Walnut Candle Boats Halloween Game
Carve out the meat from the walnuts and fasten short pieces of colored birthday candles to each halves. Name each walnut candle boat after a person in the party, light them up and set them afloat in a tub of water. If the two boats glide together, then those two people are said to have similar destiny. If they glide apart, it means separation for the owners of the boats. Sometimes candles seem to huddle together as a close-knit family while one or two will be left alone to represent loneliness and solitude. The candle that goes out first is said to indicate that its owner would remain a spinster or a bachelor.
This fortune game is not only interesting and keeps the youths interested at least as long as the candles last but also add to the Halloween aura. The party venue with creepy decorations looks even scarier in flickering candlelights as walnut candle boats float around water. If a pair of candles seems to float together from the start, it is predicted that the pair will be very close to each other throughout their lives and will probably marry each other. Toppling of the walnut candle boats is considered an ill omen and thus, care should be taken not to let the boats drown.
