History Main / WildTeenParty

* The neglected 1980 film ''Film/{{Foxes}}'' (the directorial debut of Adrian Lyne, who went on to do ''Film/{{Flashdance}}'', ''9 1/2 Weeks'' and ''Film/FatalAttraction'') has one. Madge, who is dating an older man played by Randy Quaid, invites her friends over for a small party in his apartment on a weekend when he's out of town. Eventually, more and more people hear about it and show up, a fight breaks out, and the apartment is completely trashed.

* ''The Basic Eight'': The narrator of Daniel Handler's first novel for grown-ups commits [[spoiler: Murder By Croquet Mallet]] at a booze-fueled party on Halloween.

* The Kit Pearson novel ''Looking At The Moon'' has all the adults leaving the cottage to go to a wedding and leaving the older teenagers in charge. Bearing in mind that this is a children's novel set during WWII, no sex and no drinking are shown, though almost everybody over the age of sixteen seems to smoke. Unusually for this trope, everything goes according to plan and no one's caught, though the adults on their return do remark that the island is suspiciously clean and garbage-free.

* The plot of ''Asking For It'' by Louise O'Neill is kick-started when protagonist Emma goes to such a party [[spoiler:and is gang-raped when she passes out after taking drugs.]]

* Corey Worthington had a party get really out of hand after advertising it online. In Narre Warren South, Australia, police cars and neighbours' property were damaged while Corey's parents holidayed in Queensland. Dozens of police officers, a helicopter and the dog squad had to be called in to restore the peace. A fabulously snarky TV interview (in which he refused to take off his sunglasses, "Because. They're famous") cemented his celebrity status, and he appeared on Aussie ''Series/BigBrother''. Has also made money as nightclubs offer people the chance to Party With Corey.

'''Robin:''' That's not the point. You can't just invite ''''complete strangers''' to the Tower and let them '''roam free'''!\\

* ComicBook/{{Robin|Series}} (Tim Drake) has to help manage and clean up after two of these, one that ComicBook/{{Superboy|1994}} evidently held in the Fortress of Solitude (only fellow hero kids who were already in the know were invited, but they made a bit of a mess) and another that Kid Devil threw in [[ComicBook/TeenTitans Titan Tower]], which Tim ended up interrupting in his boxers which did not at all prevent him from acting like his teammate's father:
-->'''Robin:''' You’re having a '''''party?'''''\\
'''Kid Devil:''' W-what?! No! No, I just let a few, y’know, fans drop by and–\\
'''Robin:''' '''''First''''' I get a call from Batman, and now the alarms are going off. You’re almost an adult, and here I feel like I have to babysit you! I have a life of my own, you know. I mean, what were you '''''thinking?'''''\\
'''Kid Devil:''' Sorry! I didn’t mean to interrupt your life.\\
'''Robin:''' That’s not the point. You can’t just invite '''''complete strangers''''' to the Tower and let them '''''roam free'''''!\\
'''Kid Devil:''' Honestly, Robin, it’s not like that at–\\
'''Robin:''' '''''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis Whose. PANTIES. Are those?]]''''' And '''''why''''' are they on his '''''head'''''?!

* The Film/CabinFever fanfic, ''Fanfic/CabinFeverPartingShot'' lives off this trope. The parties might be smaller than some of the other examples on this page, but the [[FiveManBand five attendees]] all party hard, and don't skimp on the AlcoholInducedIdiocy, [[EverybodyHasLotsOfSex sex]], and [[NakedPeopleAreFunny shameless nudity]].

* Pictures or videos make their way onto the Internet, and cause lots of problems for the subjects.

** Sketchbook got a [[http://www.egscomics.com/sketchbook/?date=2003-07-20 Random magic potion party]].
* ''Webcomic/{{Loserz}}'' [[http://the-qlc.com/loserz/go/68 has]] [[http://the-qlc.com/loserz/go/262 several]] [[http://the-qlc.com/loserz/go/359 hilarious]] [[http://the-qlc.com/loserz/go/168 examples]].

* In ''Webcomic/{{Sinfest}}'', [[http://www.sinfest.net/archive_page.php?comicID=2294 Satan stages one when God's asleep]] -- down to his reaction when God starts to wake up.
* ''Webcomic/SandraAndWoo'' [[http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2017/10/02/0925-run-of-the-house/ simultaneously]] [[AvertedTrope averts]] and [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this trope.

* ''Theatre/BeMoreChill'': The second act has a wild Halloween party that spirals out of control and culminates in Jake setting the house on fire.

* ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'' featured one of these thrown at Hampton's house in "Hog Wild Hampton". Of course it wasn't his idea but Plucky's. Oddly, it's not the party goers who trash the place but a neighbor, Egghead, who does so out of retaliation for the noise the party is making which is disturbing his study time. Karma thankfully saves Hampton when [[ChekhovsGun a sweepstakes Hampton entered]] awards him and his family with a new house.

** In the second episode of season 2, Davi throws a party while her mother is in India. She initially tries to invite just one of the boyfriends in her ongoing love triangle, but eventually decides to invite everyone have have a 'rager'. At the party, Fabiola and Eleanor assist in keeping Davi's boyfriends (Ben and Paxton) separate from eachother(see ''Main/TwoTimerDate''). After realising they're both dating Davi, she fesses up to them, resulting in Paxton storming out of the house. While arguing, he steps onto the road and is hit by a car. Ben remains inside, coping with Davi's confession. In the same episode, Eleanor first meets ex-Disney Channel child star Malcolm, and Eric's poor attempts to flirt with girls finally come into fruition.

* Happens often on ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot''.

* The video for "Can We Dance" by Music/TheVamps revolves around the band trying to cleanup the house and fix any damage before the main singer's parents come home. However, RealityEnsues when the parents find out about the party on [=YouTube=], and he gets caught.

* The parents [[HomeEarlySurprise come home unexpectedly]] while the party is in full swing. After a RecordNeedleScratch and a lot of yelling, speaking in {{Angrish}} and (in some cases) dropping of [[ClusterFBomb F-bombs]], the crowd (mostly) disperses, leaving behind the unconscious, the belligerent, and the teen hosts, who then get reamed out by their parents and GroundedForever.

** And played straight the time Peter ran away from home and asked Kong to stay for the night. Kong's parents were out of town, so of course there was a party some hours later.

** In the second episode of season 1, Samantha throws a pool party at home with the popular girls from school while her parents are away at the country club. When her parents come home early and end the party, Daniel is mostly upset [[SkewedPriorities by the fact that the male guests stole and wore his bathing suits]].
** In the ninth episode of season 1, Aisha finds out that [[AlphaBitch Yasmine]] is throwing her birthday party at the beach via looking on her Instagram. Wanting revenge on Yasmine for her cyberbullying, Aisha and the Cobra Kais decide to beat her there and set up their own party, with copious booze, drama, and drunken fistfights. Yasmine is pissed, and tries to order them out via Kyler, so Aisha gives her a front wedgie. Samantha has to be snuck over to the party by Robby to talk to Miguel since she's been grounded and her mother has confiscated her electronics, but a drunken Miguel misinterprets the situation and in trying to attack Robby, accidentally hits Samantha.
** In the ninth episode of season 2, Moon throws a party at her house to mark the end of the summer break and try to get members of the [[RivalDojos Cobra Kai and Miyagi-Do]] dojos to reconcile. Instead, the booze only serves to escalate the tensions, and it's only the arrival of the police to break up the party that prevents an all-out brawl from breaking out. During the party, Samantha gets pressured into a drinking contest with Tory, which she wins, then drunkenly kisses Miguel after learning from Aisha that he returned Mr. Miyagi's Medal of Honor (which Hawk had stolen when he vandalized Miyagi-Do earlier in the season). The kiss is seen by Tory, who retaliates by challenging Samantha to a fight at school.
** Subverted in the ninth episode of season 3. [[StarCrossedLovers Samantha and Miguel]], having resumed their romance, realize they need to get their respective dojos Miyagi-Do and Eagle Fang[[note]]A dojo created by Johnny from Miguel and any other students Kreese had ejected from Cobra Kai[[/note]] [[EnemyMine to combine]] to take down Cobra Kai, but doubt their senseis will be able to see eye to eye. So to get the two sides together for a sitdown, Samantha gathers the Miyagi-Dos at her house with the promise of a keg party while her parents are having dinner with Ali Mills and Johnny at the country club, and Miguel brings Eagle Fang's students over using the same empty promise. They manage to finalize most of the terms before Tory leads a Cobra Kai assault on the house.

* There are a few parties in ''Manga/AhMyGoddess'', but the only one that really fits this trope is one that the Motor Club spontaneously decides to have in Keiichi's house without his permission in order to get him to loosen up - [[ComicallyMissingThePoint when the reason he's a little stressed at the time is that he was trying to prepare for a major test that he had to take the following morning]].

'''Preston's Father:''' And remember son, *no parties*.\\

'''Preston's Mother:''' Haha! Thats my boy.

* Samantha and [[spoiler:Juliet]]'s deaths are both accidentally caused by Kent's Wild Teen Party in ''Literature/BeforeIFall''.

* Usually, Cynthia Dale's parties in ''Literature/TheRubyRedTrilogy'' are pretty boring. Then ''everybody'' decides to spike the punch. Her parents are actually there, but they're as drunk as everyone else.

* The third ''Literature/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy'' novel takes this to a whole new level. The teenagers aren't the only wild partiers - their parents are also partying, as are their parents, and ''their'' parents. And not just as a multi-generational wild party, either: the party has been going on non-stop for '''four generations'''.

* ''Literature/HarryPotterAndTheChamberOfSecrets'' - a sign that the Mandrakes (which are human-like plants) are maturing is when they throw a wild party in the greenhouse.

* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'': "[[Reca/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS3E2DeadMansParty Dead Man's Party"]], in which Buffy's out-of-control welcome back party gets crashed by zombies. It's played with; the party was originally, as Giles planned it, just going to be a quiet affair to welcome Buffy home, but her friends overrule him and turn it in to one of these; ostensibly because they think it's going to be more fun, but ''actually'' because there's all sorts of tensions surround why Buffy left which, now she's back, they're all avoiding dealing with -- having the huge party is just an excuse to avoid her as much as possible while 'welcoming' her back. Needless to say, it gets ugly even ''before'' the zombies show up.

** The season four episode "[[Recap/SmallvilleS04E08Spell Spell]]" has another wild party (though this one was Lois's fault - it was a surprise party for Chloe's birthday), and again Clark's parents find evidence of it happening. Again, they're somewhat distracted from it by more serious matters: namely, when Clark tells them about the witches he was dealing with the night before, and that magic can hurt him.

* ''Series/{{Skins}}'' is particularly known for these, to the point where [[http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=skins+party "Skins party"]] has entered the slang lexicon. There is one in just about every episode - either that, or the characters will wake up to the aftermath of one (as happens at the beginning of Cassie's S1 episode).
* ''Series/{{Glue}}'', penned by one of the writers on the above mentioned ''Series/{{Skins}}'', has two - a small affair at a grain silo and a massive teen rave in the woods.

--->'''Steven''': Oh can you? Can you explain the valet parking in the drive way?... The flashing "vacancy" sign in front of the house? The '''''billboard''''' ''on Route 41''?

** In high school, Sabrina throws another Halloween party - but this one with her aunts home. It's initially dull because Sabrina is trying to cover up all the Other Realm things going nuts. The party then kicks into gear when the others merely think the Other Realm stuff is AllPartOfTheShow.

* Jenny's birthday party-turned-rager in ''Series/GossipGirl''. Pictures are tilted, Lily van der Woodsen's clothes are worn by complete strangers, people try to have sex in the van der Woodsens' bedrooms. Not to mention Vanya (the van der Woodsens' doorman) has to fight back complete strangers from coming into the van der Woodsens' building and the police have to bring Rufus and Lily back to said building to stop the rager. The party initially started out as a quiet affair, but Jenny wanted to get revenge on Serena, and told the eponymous Gossip Girl about the party - knowing it would turn into this.

###He orders pizza with literally ''nothing'' on it - [[ExactWords not even sauce or cheese]]!

* ''{{Series/Riverdale}}'' has a fairly mild example. Betty decides to throw Jughead a surprise party for his birthday with just friends. Cheryl and Chuck however want revenge on Betty and crash with armies of friends - turning it into a wilder party. There's no property damage and the worst thing that happens is Archie getting drunk and Jughead getting into a fist fight with Chuck. They manage to clean everything up before Archie's dad arrives back home.

* ''WebVideo/TheGumdrops'' - an episode features the aftermath of a wild college party involving only two people! To the degree that [[spoiler: there's a horse in the garden!]]
* ''WebVideo/TheNutters'' has a party sequence, although it's thrown with the permission of Jake's mother. As far as wildness goes, it only turns ugly when TheBully crashes and gets into a fight with Jake for making a pass at his cousin. In reality it was supposed to involve Eoin getting high on cocaine, but his actor Greg Young had to leave early. Behind the scenes it got even wilder - Liam Gaynor confesses that most of the extras brought their own drink, with the result that everyone was drunk by the end of the night.

** Macie finds herself hosting a pool party against her will for the high school French class - because she accidentally revealed that her parents spent a lot of time out of town. The party isn't too wild but the girls have to deal with two {{Alpha Bitch}}es trying to de-bikini Courtney.
** Ginger attempts to invoke this in another episode to help a new girl feel welcome in town. Of course everyone thinks the girl is weird because she lives in a funeral home and nobody comes - that is until a few high school kids hear it's in a funeral home and think it's incredibly cool.
** Ginger and friends crash one in order to shake off their 'nice girl' reputation. What's wild about this party is that it's on a school night - and Ginger gets a [[SlutShaming rumour]] started about her after [[NotWhatItLooksLike a high school boy is seen giving her house keys back]].

* Bloo in ''WesternAnimation/FostersHomeForImaginaryFriends'' throws a G-rated one while Madame Foster is out of the house for the day. It somehow ends with Mac running through the streets naked after [[GRatedDrug getting hopped up on sugar]]. The typical result of the trope is {{subverted|Trope}} at the end: Madame Foster comes home and seems quite incensed about it...because the party was thrown without her. She gleefully moves onto the dance floor and the party continues.
* Terry's friend Howard throws one in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond''. The party goes south when his {{Yandere}} robot girlfriend interferes with his attempt to pick up other girls and starts destroying the house when he tries to break up with her. She ends up exploding, taking the house with her, just as Howard's parents come home, having run out of vacation money thanks to him using it to buy the robot girlfriend. [[DeadpanSnarker "The party peaked early"]], indeed.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse2013'' short "[[Recap/MickeyMouseS4E11FeedTheBirds Feed the Birds]]", the pigeons throw one of these after invading Mickey's house.

* In ''Westernanimation/HerculesTheAnimatedSeries'', Herc would receive friends Cassandra and Icarus at Phil's island as the trainer is away in a convention. Bacchus, the God of Wine, decides to barge in and convinces Herc to instead organize a full-blown Bacchanal, bringing along basically all of Herc's classmates to a party so wild that Poseidon, God of the Seas, decides to sink the island given the Bacchanal is not letting him sleep. To restore the place, Herc and the god Hermes need to go through a ChainOfDeals to get something Poseidon wanted in return for rising the island back - and it goes through Phil's convention, though thankfully he returns just in time.

* Inverted in ''WesterAnimation/SabrinaTheAnimatedSeries'', where Sabrina's attempted Halloween party is just dull because of Gem trying to sabotage it. It doesn't become a fun affair until her aunts arrive and use their magic.
