I can’t stand it anymore. I have to get the Halloween Blog Party festivities started NOW!
In year’s past I did a variety of giveaways throughout the month of October. Because I’m working on getting some books out as well as launching another blog, I’m not going to have the time to party all October long this year. (I’ll still be partying, mind you, but not doing the giveaways.)
Plus, some of the giveaway items for last year couldn’t be fully enjoyed for the Halloween season by the time I ran the contest and got them mailed out. Therefore, I’ve decided to do something totally different this year.
I’m doing one giveaway. A mega goody giveaway before the Halloween season kicks into full gear.
THE PRIZE PACKAGE
Up for grabs is a prize pack that includes the following:
Boooo-oply
Pin the Tail on the Scaredy Cat Game
A Set of 6 Halloween Crackers
A $50 HalloweenExpress.com Virtual Gift Card
Yep, if you win, you win it all!
HOW TO ENTER
Test your psychic powers with me. I’m making a prediction that Angry Birds, anything super hero, and Harry Potter will be among the most popular costumes this year.
All you have to do to enter is leave a comment saying which costume(s) you think will be most popular this year.
RULES AND DEADLINE TO ENTER
- Entries will be accepted until Friday September 30, 2011.
- Winner will be announced on Monday October 3, 2011.
- You can enter as many times as you want. However, if you leave multiple picks in one comment, each comment only counts once. For instance, if you say the Angry Birds costumes and anything cowboy will be big this Halloween but say so in one comment, that’s only one entry. If you split it up and put Angry Birds in a comment, and cowboys in a separate comment, they’ll each count for their own entry.
- This giveaway is open to everybody. (U.S. and International)
Good luck and happy early Halloween!
P.S.

Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.

i predict that Zombies will definitely be a huge if not the biggest costume this year with the kids.
I think Angry Birds are going to be the big hit with Halloween Costumes this “season”!
My first guess would have to be Harry Potter. It seems to always be a big hit with kids.
I think vampires will be big again this year.
Kids? Who said anything about kids? LOL
Okay, I think the popularity of costume choice depends on the age group.
Among the early teens/tweens, the Twilighters will take over.
My guess is Katy Perry Costumes lol
i expect to see lots of little freddies jasons and ghostfaces from the selection at the shops too. mybe even a little leatherface
I think zombies will be big this year!
There will be alot of Lady Gaga’s!
I bet vampires will be making a comeback, I’m goin with the whole TrueBlood theme this year!
My kids are guessing Harry Potter!
“ZOMBIES” will rule this year for sure….:)
The Green Lantern
Maybe Charlie Sheen!
Courtney…I think you’re being a little vague with the “anything super hero” guess. 😉
I was a little torn between Captain America and Thor…since they’re both popular movies that came out this year and were promo’ed all over the place. I’m going to guess Captain America will be the bigger hit of those two.
LOL at Mary – Charlie Sheen – hahaha!
Thinking Transformers will be big with the younger boys too, since another Transformers movie came out this year. My 7 year old neighbor kid is all about Transformers. LOL
I’m going to guess Angry Birds, but I’m going to be the robot from LMFAO this Halloween!
This year will be Game of Thrones, Dr Who, Angry Birds, and that woman who killed her daughter but got off scot-free. We’ll probably see a lot of pirates and bums, too, but both those will be labeled something to do with Wall Street!
I’m doing a Halloween giveaway at my blog, as well. I’m giving someone a new Kindle. Come give me a visit!

Angry Birds
I’m going to go with the Potter peeps and the Walking Dead (zombies). The final HP film will bring out the inner wizard/witch in everyone but those costumes can be ornate. The procrastinators will take the zombie route, it’s easier.
With the “Walking Dead” and their growing popularity in all media, I’m predicting that zombies will be huge this year!

For young girls, I’m predicting that the “Monster High” characters will be popular; I’m seeing that those costumes are sold out everywhere here (already!).

For young boys, I’m predicting that “Captain America” will rule!

For women, I think we’ll be seeing Katy Perry costumes being #1 (Lady GaGa ruled last year).

Wouldn’t be right if I didn’t say Witches Rule! for Halloween. LOL From little cutsie witches to sassy, sexy adult witches. It is our night after all. 😉 Lif’e a witch and then you fly!
Ooops, above was supposed to be “Life’s a witch and then you fly!” LOL
Little girls – Disney princesses – almost every little girl wants to be a princess, that never goes out of style. 🙂
Steampunk.
