On Saturday, October 12th, starting promptly at 8pm, Lighthouse Tattoo will be hosting our annual Halloween Party! If you know, you know. If it’s your first time: This costume party is BYOB, free to attend, and open to the public (so bring friends). We ask that everyone park across the street, as any vehicles in our parking lot may be set ablaze during the fire show. Please do not park next door.
Additionally, Everyone in the Lighthouse Staff will be dressed as Star Wars characters this year, that’s nearly 30 people total, so you may not want to dress similarly if you don’t want to wear a duplicate costume, although stormtroopers, Ewoks, Mandalorians, or random Jedi or Sith would be appropriate, so do what you want, it’s just an FYI.
Their will also be a costume contest with prizes of gift certificates to Lighthouse Tattoo for the following categories: Best Overall; Best Group; Best Couple; Funniest; Scariest; and Sexiest costume. All costumes will be judged on the following criteria: Originality; Effort; Authenticity; and Presentation. What does this mean?
It means if you wanna be Deadpool, you can be, but you’re not gonna win. Unless… Maybe you’re not Deadpool Prime, maybe a variant, and you make the costume yourself, and it’s great work, very true to the details, and maybe you learn that NSync Bye Bye Bye dance to do during the competition. Then you’d have it all, Originality, Effort, Authenticity, and detail. Buying a costume off the shelf pales in comparison to some nice homemade cosplay, and we like to reward passion here, so get crackin! Time’s short!
Costume contest prizes will be in the form of gift certificates to Lighthouse Tattoo up to $300 (maybe more, depending on the level of success), and we reserve the right to add categories on site (like maybe splitting the categories into male/female if we have a large crowd or some very good costumes). Sexiest costume, as always, pays out 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place.
Thanks and we’ll see you on October 12th!
