Overview

There are so many ways to celebrate Halloween inside and outside the home. The time has finally come to show off the various ways you enjoy the Halloween season with costumes and masks, and decorations and tasty treats.

This year we have 7 Judges' Prizes with a $500 Gift Card prize for each!
- Easy Costume - a costume that can be completed in a shorter amount of time
