Halloween Fun Guide seeks spooky submissions
Crawl out of your coffin, break out the cobwebs and grab a cuppa witches’ brew — it’s time to get ready for Halloween.
If you’re planning some mischief for the month of October — haunted houses, devilish bar parties, trick-or-treat opportunities, costume contests, horror movies, vampire pageants, zombie conventions, pumpkin festivals or other scare tactics — list your event in the Star-Advertiser’s annual Halloween Fun Guide coming out Oct. 8.
To submit a free listing, email details about your event — date, time, location, sponsor, description of event, cost, age recommendation and contact information — to features@staradvertiser.com by Oct. 3.
