Vote for “White Witch” in Halloween Costume Contest

Wednesday, November 8th, 2006

Vote for the White Witch. Or at least a child dressed up as the White Witch. At last, it’s time to vote for your favorites in Cinematical’s 2nd Annual Halloween Costume Contest.

We made a minor change to the contest: Because we got quite a few super-cute kid entries, we decided to put the kids in their own category to give them a better shot — and their own prize package! The entrant in the Child’s Costume category will receive DVDs of It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown AND Monster House, along with a Cinematical t-shirt (the smallest shirt size we have is an adult small, but they make great nightshirts for little ones — or the adult who entered the child can take it for themselves … ).

That’s all for the rules … now go and VOTE!
