‘It’s a BOOtiful morning… AHHHHHH!’ Today marks t-minus 13 (unlucky?) days until Halloween. And keeping in the spooky spirit, we here at RALtoday are hosting two creepy contests — encouraging all craft carvers to send in photos of their cleaved jack-o-lanterns and for every boy + ghoul to let us see their haunting guises for Halloween night.
Here are the devilish details:
- Photos can be submitted via social using our tag #RALtoday, or by sending to us directly.
- Creative carvings need to be sent in by the witching hour on Oct. 29.
- Ghoulish garb need to be sent in by noon, Nov. 1.
The top four terrifying (bOOtiful, creepy, cute...) jack-o-lanterns and costumes will be voted on by YOU for all the howling rights.
To help get you in the macabre mood, you will find a spooky stencil below for your prized pumpkin. Need some eerie inspiration for your costume? Might we suggest the elevator queen herself, Cherie Berry, our city’s namesake Sir Walter Raleigh, or the Stranger Things cast? (DYK: The Duffer Brothers are from Durham and drop little N.C. references throughout the show.) Happy haunting.
