IT will be a night of ‘wizards and witches’ as Queensbay Mall, Penang, lets loose a sack of spooky surprises in its Helluva Halloween celebration on Oct 30 and Oct 31.

Its advertising and promotions manager Wendy Wong said a host of chilly events would be held for shoppers including a ‘Helluva Movie Marathon’ from 8am to 6pm on Oct 30 at the mall’s north zone (ground floor).

“Participants are required to endure 10 hours of horror movies without shrieking, turning the face away from the screen or yawning in order to walk away with a brand new iPhone (3GS),” she said in a statement.

The first 50 participants who register by paying a RM20 fee will receive a scary bag while stocks last.

Wong said there would also be a Halloween Costume Competition where shoppers could rub shoulders with ‘creepy, monstrous and unearthly creatures’ in the Halloween Costume Competition at 8pm the same night.

Under the adult category (18 years and above), the three main prize winners for the ‘Most Unique’, ‘Most Creative’ and ‘The Scariest Award’ will walk away with RM500 each while three consolation prizes of RM100 each, all sponsored by SenQ, would also be given out.

Wong said if the ‘scary ghosts and monsters’ were way too scary, shoppers could see cute pumpkin heads, little witches and baby monsters in the Halloween Costume Competition for children aged below 12 at 2pm on Oct 31.

All contest forms are available at the mall’s ground floor (central zone) customer service counter from 10.30am to 10.30pm. For details, call 04-6468888.
