Happy Horror'ween! Enter our fancy dress contest.
sean by Sean Adams October 31st, 2008

Twit-woo! *Creeeeak!* BOO!

Now that it's got dark and our broom is resting by our bubbling cauldron, DiS has finally got into the spirit of the season. There's probably only one band who totally OWN Hallowe'en and that's art-ghouls The Horrors.

For no other reason than the fact we wanted to hold a little fancy dress competition (please post links below to pictures of you dressed up and we'll pick our favourites - although fellow commenters, please feel free to suggest your favourites!) we're giving away the following stuff from The Horrors US label to the ten best dressed...

  1. A copy of The Horrors' debut album Strange House.

  2. A copy of The Horrors' debut EP.

  3. A copy... no, a box of 30 per winner, limited edition Horrors' b-sides that were never released by accident.

  4. Horrors stickers!

  5. Horrors posters!

It's a bit ruddy kind of them and we'd like to thank Sarah (aka Ultragrrrl) from Stolen Transmission for this fantastic giveaway.

So, upload your picture of you looking ghoulish to your DiS profile, Flickr, Facebook, MySpace, or whatever and show us what you were dressed up as for your chance to win. Prizes will be awarded for the funniest and most creative.
