5 Halloween Sex Positions That Are All Treats, No Tricks

Julia Heming

Halloween is arguably one of the horniest holidays of the year — and you know it, too. With masks, sexy costumes, and opportunities for hookups galore, everything feels a little darker and a little more mysterious, making for the perfect romantic plot for potential fall romances. And, to get in the spirit of the holiday, consider trying out some Halloween-themed sex positions with a partner or hookup. All treats, no tricks.

With Halloween falling on a Tuesday this year, it’s likely that you’re going to have a weekend full of events and costumes for the weeks leading up to the holiday. So, when it comes to hooking up, perhaps it’s time to trade in your costume for some lingerie and grab your favorite Halloween candy (you’re gonna need it — trust me), because things are about to get naughty.  

Adding a little (pumpkin) spice to your hookups this Halloween can definitely take things to the next level, so embrace the darker side of the season while you are getting down and dirty. Without further ado, grab your boo (see what I did there?) or a Halloween hookup, and get down and dirty with these spooky season-inspired sex positions. And, BTW, this is a time of year when screaming is encouraged — so you might as well enjoy it.

The ghost

We all know there can be a chill in the air by Oct. 31, so this position is perfect for keeping the warm and cozy vibes going while things get hot and heavy. Mount your partner and have them penetrate you from underneath (think cowgirl) but pull the sheets up over both of your heads to stay under the covers. 

Trick-or-treating

Add a little chocolate to a vanilla position this Halloween by grabbing a candy bowl (and a condom!) before heading into the bedroom. Lay out a towel and get comfy in missionary with your partner on top. Then, place their favorite candies on any erogenous zones you’d like them to pay extra attention to. This one is sure to be a treat.

The Vampire bite

There’s no reason to tire yourself out before witching hour, so this position allows both partners to find the perfect groove for going at it all night long. Have your partner sit in a chair, or at the end of the bed, and sit on top of them chest-to-chest. Once you are getting down and dirty, grab their hair, tilt their head back, and kiss and suck at their neck. Twilight who?

The Scarecrow

You’re gonna want to use your balance for this one. Standing up, put your back against a wall, and have your partner penetrate you while wrapping one leg around them. Make things a little kinkier by asking them to pin your hands above your head.

The Vampire

After a wild night of haunts, you might be craving a position that adds some vibes without adding crazy positions. Have your partner penetrate you missionary style, but put your legs in the air, let your partner grab your ankles, and pull your legs into a wide V-shape. What is V for? Vampire, of course!

Of course, when it comes to hooking up, consent is key. So, if you and your partner (or hookup) are down for it, consider making things a little freakier this Halloween — in the best way.
