Pardise Lakes Campgrounds has so much room for bewitching activities.
Check out our list of fun things to do and see while sampling the vast selection of broos and spirits that Witch-Craft has to offer!
Costume Contest
COSTUMES are encouraged!! We are stoked and a little terrified to see what this year's Witch-Craft attendees will be showing up as for the 2024 Paradise Lakes Campground event on both October 11th & 12th.
This year the cash prize pool is over $2,000 bucks (for the weekend) each category winner will receive $100! The contest will take place both Friday and Saturday with independent winners each night.
Categories:
-
Best Movie Character:
Channel your inner Hollywood star (or villain)! Whether you're going full “Oscar-worthy” or “straight-to-DVD,” show us your best attempt at bringing a character from the big screen to life. Bonus points if it’s a role even the actor regretted taking!
Most Frightening:
Terrify, petrify, and give everyone some serious nightmare fuel. Whether you’re dressed as a creepy clown, a possessed doll, or that thing lurking under the bed, this category is all about making people say, "Nope, nope, nope!"
Killer Looks (Sexy Category):
Time to strut your stuff and slay with a costume that's hotter than a cauldron full of witches' brew. Whether you're a sultry vampire or a werewolf who knows how to work a runway, bring the fierce, the fabulous, and just a touch of dangerous!
Best Couples:
Like peanut butter and jelly, or Bonnie and Clyde—except maybe a bit weirder. Whether you're a spooky pair, a power couple, or just in matching onesies, prove that two costumes are better than one! Extra kudos if you’re doing all the heavy lifting for a partner who barely showed up.
Best Group Costume:
Roll deep with your squad and bring us the most epic group costume possible. Whether you're a gaggle of ghosts, a bunch of bananas, or an oddly cohesive mess, this category is all about numbers, chaos, and getting everyone to cooperate for at least 10 seconds of costume glory!
Sign up at the festival entrance. Categories do sell out so please regiester as soon as you get there.
