Every year when October hits, I end up scrolling for Halloween charcuterie board ideas because I never want to make the same thing twice.
I like when the board has that mix of spooky snacks and a few cute touches, like ghost cheese slices or candy eyeballs next to crackers.
What makes it fun to me is when the table feels lively, with different flavors and colors all coming together.
So I rounded up a bunch of Halloween party food boards that gave me ideas for everything from savory bites to sweet treats.
My Must-Have Charcuterie Boards
Before we jump into the list, I’ve got to share the boards I swear by. They make the whole spread look put-together without you stressing over the setup.
1. Coffin CharBOOterie Box
I mean, putting snacks in a coffin shaped box just feels right for Halloween. You open it up and it’s like surprise… cheese, crackers, candy eyeballs all in there. If you bring this to a party, everybody’s gonna hover around it.
2. Charcuterie Cauldron
I kinda love that idea. You don’t even need to style it much, just throw in spooky snacks inside a little witch cauldron and it instantly feels like witchy magic.
3. Big Coffin Halloween Board
It’s basically a giant coffin-shaped board loaded with cheese, crackers, fruit, and olives. Then you drop in a little bone-shaped prop and suddenly the whole thing feels like Halloween night.
4. Day of the Dead Board
This one feels more colorful than scary. Bright flowers, skull-shaped cheese, maybe even some marigolds if you find them. It’s a nice switch if you want Halloween vibes but with that Mexican Day of the Dead energy.
5. Mummy Brie Board
Wrap up a wheel of brie with puff pastry so it looks like a little mummy face, eyes and all. I did this once and people thought it was hilarious. You don’t even need extra decor, the cheese itself becomes the main attraction.
6. Skeleton Charcuterie Board
I like this one because the skeleton makes the whole thing instantly spooky. You set the food around it and it kinda feels like the skeleton is snacking with you.
7. Pumpkin Charcuterie Skewer Board
I’m into this idea when I don’t wanna fuss with arranging stuff flat. You just stab all the skewers into a pumpkin and suddenly it looks like a big Halloween snack bouquet.
8. Creepy Cute Eyeball Board
I always think eyeball food is funny. Cheese balls with olives or raspberries with candy eyeballs—yeah it’s a little gross, but it’s also super cute and perfect for a Halloween board.
9. Ouija Charcuterie Board
This one feels so different. I like the idea of putting alphabet and number cookies on top of the cheese and crackers so it looks like an actual Ouija board. It’s spooky but not gory, which makes it kinda cool.
10. Amputated Hand Charcuterie Board
I’ve seen this and it legit looks like a real hand. A block of cheese shaped into a hand, wrapped in prosciutto with little cuts in it—creepy but honestly the most memorable board you could make.
11. Halloween Wine Glass Topper Board
I love how this looks a little fancy but still playful. You’ve got wine in the glass and then a mini board sitting right on top with cheese and crackers, so you’re basically holding a drink and a snack in one hand.
12. CharBOOterie Cups
These are small white cups filled with snacks, and the ghost faces drawn on the front make them so cute. You just grab a cup and it feels like you’ve got your own little Halloween charcuterie serving.
13. Skeleton Mouse Charcuterie Board
This one’s creepy in a good way. A little mouse skeleton holding a wedge of holey cheese, with some jam or sauce smeared like blood on its mouth and hands.
14. Easy Halloween Charcuterie Board
Nothing too over the top here, just a simple board with the usual snacks and a few candy eyeballs to make it Halloween-y. I like that it’s easy to put together, so you don’t stress but you still get that spooky vibe on the table.
15. Mini Pumpkin Charcuterie Cups
Tiny pumpkin-shaped cups stuffed with meats, cheese, and little bites. It’s such a cute individual serving idea, and everyone gets their own mini charcuterie. If you’re into festive but simple, this one works so well.

16. Cutest CharBOOterie Board
I swear this one is almost too cute. The big ghost shape made out of soft cheese in the middle just makes the whole board feel playful. You set snacks all around it and suddenly the table feels way more fun.
17. Spider Oreo Snack Board
I love how simple this is. It’s mostly cookies and fruit, but the Oreo spiders steal the show. You don’t even need to try that hard, just set them on the board and it’s instantly Halloween-y.
18. Jack Skellington Cheese Board
A round brie turned into Jack Skellington’s face right in the center—so easy but everybody recognizes it. It feels spooky without being gross, and if you like The Nightmare Before Christmas, this one’s perfect for you.
19. Witch Hat Brie Board
This one looks kind of magical. A cheese wheel with a witch hat cutout filled with dark jam, sitting right in the middle of the board. It’s simple but the vibe is pure witchy Halloween.
20. Spooky Graveyard Charcuterie Board
This feels like a whole scene. A skeleton hand, eyeball snacks, little skulls, even RIP carved into cheese on a coffin-shaped board. It’s dramatic, spooky, and honestly the kind of board people keep talking about after the party.
21. Coffin Snack Board
So this one’s just a coffin-shaped board, nothing too crazy, but I threw on some eyeball gummies and those little syringes with sauce. Kinda small touches, but when you see it, it feels way more Halloween.
22. BOO Charcuterie Trays
You know those trays shaped like the word BOO? Yeah, you just pile snacks in them and it already looks spooky-cute. Super easy if you want everyone to have their own little setup.
23. Beetlejuice Brie Board
I’m obsessed with this idea. Take a brie wheel and make Beetlejuice’s face right on top. You set that in the middle and instantly people know the theme. Creepy but also kinda funny.
24. Ghost Cutout Cheese Board
This one’s simple but I love it. A round cheese with a ghost cut out in the middle, filled with dark chocolate or jam. When you put it out, the ghost shape really pops, and you don’t even need to add much else.
25. Jack-O-Lantern Board
Feels super classic Halloween. Crackers, fruit, cheese, some veggies, and then a pumpkin bowl with cheese carved like a Jack-O’-Lantern. Even threw in some skull crackers and it still looks neat and clean, not messy.
26. Prosciutto Skeleton Feast Board
I swear this thing looks crazy. It’s like a full skeleton laid out, wrapped in prosciutto so it feels kinda real. You walk up to it and you’re like… am I supposed to eat this or just stare at it? Either way, it’s the one board everybody talks about.
27. Scream Mask Brie Board
You know that Scream mask? Yeah, this is that but on a brie. I like how the blackberries make the cloak and the jam fills in the eyes and mouth. You put this out and people know exactly what movie you’re hinting at. Creepy but fun.
28. Creepy Skull Board
Okay, so this one is literally a skull bowl covered in prosciutto with gummy eyeballs jammed in the sockets. It’s kinda gross but in that way where you laugh and still grab a snack.
29. Pennywise Clown Cheese Board
If you hate clowns, don’t even look at this one. It’s Pennywise’s face made out of cheese, with salami and raspberries as that wild red hair. Blackberries for the outfit, and jam for the creepy smile.
30. Goofy Ghost Cheese Board
This one’s not scary at all, it’s just funny. Long pieces of cheese with little eyes stuck on, plus some candy eyeballs thrown around. They look silly, like ghosts drawn by a kid, but that’s why it works. You’d definitely smile grabbing one of these.
