Darlings, today is the first of October and it’s time to announce the big Halloween contest! This year’s contest is a combined Photo Scavenger Hunt and Costume Contest. You can choose to enter either contest or do them both and double your chance of winning something fabulous! We are teaming up with SuperficialGallery.com, home of Halloween heart throb and TYoH favorite, Acadia Einstein, to offer some really fantastic prizes all month long, including the following:
- A 128 GB solid state hard drive from Kingston (a $160.00 value).
- Two 16 GB Kingston Wi drives (valued at $130 each).
- A $150.00 gift card from San Diego’s BettiePageClothing.com.
- At least one of UncommonGoods.com’s fantastic and unusual items for the home (like these) or gifts for men (like these).
- Amazing bloody mary supplies from Demitri’s Bloody Mary Seasonings.
- Additional prizes will be announced throughout the month of October, so keep checking back here and at the links below!
Here is how you play:
Picture Perfect is the photo scavenger hunt. It works like this:
- Open the sign here and print it.
- Take photos to match the 20 pictures in the gallery below and try to get as many points as you can. Email the pics to [email protected].
- At the end of the month, the player with the most points wins the Picture Perfect scavenger hunt!
- You will be able to get additional points (and maybe extra prizes!) by watching out for pop up extra target pics on SuperficialGallery.com, TheYearofHalloween.com, and our official G+ contest page.
- The final photo in the scavenger hunt is your entry into the Costume Contest, so make sure you make it as good as you can, because the picture with the most votes wins the costume contest!
It’s just that easy, darlings. So make sure you keep an eye out for us throughout the month of October, and get playing!

Oh, I hope so! I was thinking about her when we picked the cake one, honestly.
More prizes have arrived. This is gonna be some kind of…prize blood bath.

This does sound like fun Eva! I appreciate you and Mme. Weebles thinking of me. I’m gonna have to be a “conscientious observer” on this one however. I can’t walk and chew gum at the same time during times I’m balancing a bit more on my plate.
Oh but Halloween is nigh! Our time is upon us Eva! I just bought a new tombstone, and some sparkly Halloween things for a different slant. Now alls I need are bloody shower curtains, green spider webs and green and purple candles. I’ll be decorating at the end of this week. I’ve already lined up some nice horror movies on my Netflix queue! Talk to you later!
Auntie Sandee,
And here I was going to write you to come this way…….
Le Clown
Well at least you’re here to observe, even if you don’t have time to participate, Sandee!
All it takes to enter is a single photo! But yes, perhaps an impartial observer is a good idea. Acadia is terribly shifty, you know.
Oh my goodness, how fabulous! I hope you take pictures of your set up and share, even if you don’t play.
Reblogged this on A Clown On Fire and commented:
My friend Eva Halloween is have a kick-ass Halloween contest on her site. Yes, there are great prizes, but more importantly, it looks like a great deal of fun. So who’s in with me?
My goodness, such praise from Le Clown himself.
*fans self*
Halloween is a special day as my first baby was born on October 31st. This year she will be 18!! I will be entering with gusto
Early congratulations on being the proud parent of a grown-up, Barbara!
We’re thrilled to have you stopping by to play.
