Fungus pizza! Spread store bought pizza sauce over sliced english muffins. Mix yellow and green food coloring together with shredded mozarella cheese and sprinkle on top. It turns this really gross looking color, but it tastes great. Broil in the oven but only for a short time because it burns easily. Just until the cheese is melted. I also call it Gremlin pizza because once it's cooked it kinda looks like that scene in the movie Gremlins when it got chopped up in the blender.

I would buy the inexpensive pie pumpkins or baby pumpkins - spray them with glue and then coat them completely in glitter - and let dry - then go back with a bottle of Elmer's school glue and draw a curly vine around the pumpkin and sprinkle a contrasting glitter on it. These are color combinations I used - silver pumpkin with purple vines, hot pink pumpkin with black vines, fuschia pumpkin with green vine, blue pumpkin with silver vine. These look gorgeous placed on individual candle sticks, or piled in a crystal cake plate or bowl. (you can give them out afterwards as party favors)
Spray paint big pumpkins either white or black and trail contrasting fall leaf vines or feather boas off the top and curling around the base. I used white pumpkins with silvery leaves (spray painted) and also black pumpkins with hot pink boas. They were WOW < WOW < WOW decorations.
I also bought a big pumpkin and drilled lots of holes all over it - put a candle inside and made a luminaria type jack-o-lantern.
I also made a centerpiece made with a spray painted silver pumpkin sprinkled with crystal & silver glitter - with flowers coming out of the top (I used shades of purple & lavendar) and sprays of pearls and glittered curly willow branches). We set it in a small tray with dry ice - so it was foggy. It was soooo pretty and eerie.
My son got married last Halloween, and these were some of the decorations we made for his reception tables.

Have a blast! Dips and chips dyed black and orange.Halloween toothpicks and orange cheese with black olives---colorful.Use dry ice in your punch.Don't forget the spooky music.Go to your dollar store for cupcake decorations.It's my birthday too, so I've used several of these ideas for over a half a century.(or have her a birthday dinner the night before--that way she gets her presents and gets a chance to chat with her family and friends)

ICE HAND
Fill latex gloves with water, close tight and freeze several days ahead. Cut off glove and float ice hand in punch. It looks great!
Dry ice makes a good show too.

I would go with tons of orange and black balloons and black and purple streamers. The fake spider webs are pretty cheap too so spread those everywhere. Lighting is important so put low wattage bulbs in your lamps.

Boiled macaroni in a big bowl covered with a large cloth. The kids stick their hands in it and think it's guts.
A jello mold with large white grapes. Looks like eye balls.
