Spooky season has come once again to Azeroth and all the inhabitants of the world are getting into the spirit of Hallow's End. Innkeepers trick, or treat, passersby and adventures put on masks, disguising themselves with masks and costumes, and pass behind enemy lines to take pictures of themselves in festive settings in the enemy territory!
To participate in the Hallow's End Screenshot Contest, simply make your way to that race's territory. Then, find a spooky setting and snap a picture of yourself, possibly adding some sort of costume or disguise to your character’s looks, for example one of the Halloween masks which are currently available from Innkeepers throughout the country. Submit your screenshot here and remember to select the category "Screenshot Contest." The winners will be announced on our website and will be notified by email so that they can claim their prizes: a World of Warcraft t-shirt and a World of Warcraft baseball cap!
