Giveaways

It’s cute that you thought we’d give you the prize list. C’mon, everybody! It’s Spooktacular! We will, however, generously provide some information about the different types of giveaways you can expect during the week.

Website Giveaways

Check out our Contests & Giveaways webpage during the event for a chance to enter our website-based giveaways.

Registrant Exclusive Giveaways

Event registrants will have access to exclusive giveaway opportunities. That means in addition to any social media, website, or livestream contests going on during the event, you will also hear about unique giveaway opportunities delivered straight to your email inboxes. That definitely gives you more chances to enter to win a special prize during the week. So increase your chances to win when you enter and RSVP now!

Livestream Giveaways

Tune in to our event livestreams for a chance to enter to win prizes presented by our hosts.

Group Giveaways

Join our Facebook Groups and the Sideshow Social Network for a chance to enter to win prizes all week long.

Social Media Giveaways

There are two different types of social media giveaways:

Flash Giveaways are quick contests held on Sideshow’s official social media accounts. You will only have a limited amount of time to follow the prompt given on the social post. A winner will be selected from qualifying entries.

Giveaway Challenges are contests held on the Crowdpurr platform at sideshow.live. A social media post will go live directing you to Crowdpurr with a special hashtag and access code. Once the contest begins, you will have a specified amount of time to complete the challenge described and submit your entry. A winner will be selected from qualifying entries. All entries have the potential to be showcased in Sideshow’s wrap-up livestreams.

Scavenger Hunt

Every day during this spooky celebration, a word will be given to the best detectives. These words will be hidden anywhere that has to do with Sideshow and Spooktacular 2023. Hiding spots might include our official social media channels, livestreams, the Sideshow blog, our website, and more. No place is off limits.

It is up to you to collect the words and unscramble the phrase. Be wary in sharing anything you find with your fellow sleuths, as that only diminishes your chances of claiming the prize in the final drawing. Additionally, the words will be given in correct sentence order, but you cannot enter the contest until the 31st even if you guess the full phrase ahead of time.

Ready, set, SEARCH!

On October 31, you will be able to enter the full and complete sentence on our Contests page for a chance to win the grand prize. A winner will be chosen randomly from qualifying entries (make sure to check our Terms and Conditions). The sentence must be entered correctly as part of the submission, and it must be entered before 11:59 PM PT on October 31.

One winner will receive both the Sideshow Michael Myers Deluxe and Leatherface (Killing Mask) Sixth Scale Figures. Happy hunting!
