Our annual Halloween party has become quite legendary. Costume contests, games, BYOB, food, fire, human sacrifice, sweets.
Party starts at 7 for the early birds and costume contest sign-ups, contest judging starts promptly at 8:30 and the winners will be announced at 11:00 and you must be present to win! You don’t have to be a customer of Lighthouse Tattoo to attend or win one of the prizes, so let your freak flag fly and take your chances at winning some cool stuff.
Costume categories are as follows:
Best Costume
Sexiest Costume-3 places
Scariest Costume
Best Couple or Group
Costumes will be judged on Originality/Creativity; Authenticity, Execution/Quality; and Overall Impact.
Originality/Creativity: If you had to come up with the idea all on your lonesome and this costume is not store bought.
Authenticity: The costume is unmistakable from the intended effect, you nailed it!
Execution/Quality: How well is the costume made, if it’s a store bought costume, is the fit right, accessorized, and complete. A great costume should tell a story.
Overall Impact: If your costume drops jaws and makes everyone say, HOLY SHIT, you’re in the running for a prize!
Women can best best overall and men can win the sexiest, but don’t be fooled fellas, the ladies usually take that category, such is the nature of Halloween. Sexy costumes should still be COSTUMES folks, so have a good concept in mind. Winners in the past have included costumes from the film Sucker Punch and Jessica Rabbit, but we’re sure there’s a Marilyn Monroe (zombie Marilyn?) or Elvira out there ready to take the cake. So use your noodles and get to work on those costumes, we like to weight that Originality category pretty heavy!
