Season of Shadows Blog

It’s time to once again take the paranormal for a spin in the latest SOS giveaway. In picking up where I left off last September — with the Discovery Channel series, “A Haunting” — I’m giving away two, brand new DVD box sets of A Haunting: the complete third season to two separate winners. In case you’re unfamiliar with the series, “A Haunting” recreates purported real life ghostly encounters in an unnerving documentary style. If you enjoy very spooky, thought-provoking entertainment, then these DVDs should provide you with more than a few restless nights. This third installment in the series takes you on a journey to a haunted English pub; a recently renovated Victorian Mansion with a displeased ghostly inhabitant; an Irish home plagued by a poltergeist; a secret room in a Salt Lake City house where something lurks in the darkness, and much more. In all, there are ten haunting episodes included in this set.

To recap, I’m giving away two, brand new DVD box sets of A Haunting: Season 3 to two separate winners. All guidelines for entering can be found below.

Upon entering, all I ask in return is that you take a few moments to recommend this post, whether it’s via your own blog, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Stumble, or Digg account, etc. If you don’t have a blog or an account with a social networking site, then please consider e-mailing the link to friends. I would really appreciate the support.

While it may seem counterproductive for you to recommend a giveaway (that you’re interested in winning) to others, it helps Season of Shadows grow. And, the site’s growth is directly related to creating more giveaways for you to win.

The larger the site’s reach becomes, the greater the potential revenue. This, in turn, creates opportunities for me to host contests with even greater quantities of Halloween and ghostly prizes. In the long run, I think it all evens out — though more people are entering, I’m able to give more things away. Plus, I just love giving cool stuff to my visitors. It’s a lot of fun!

Please, only one entry per household. Duplicate entries from the same IP will be deleted. These giveaways are really based on the honor system, but I do my best to make it as fair as possible for everyone. There’s no catch here, everything is free – including payment of shipping and handling for “A Haunting” – I cover all costs. To be entered, leave a comment below, showing your interest.

Depending upon the volume of entries, comments may only be displayed under this post for a short time. As entries grow, I may remove comments to make it easier for visitors to scroll to the comment box and enter. However, I guarantee all entries will be saved in the order they are received.

When leaving a comment, be sure to include your correct e-mail address and be certain to keep track of your spam or bulk folder after the drawing closes, just in case. Each winner of A Haunting will be contacted through the e-mail address that’s registered with their comment. I will never share addresses, provided by entrants, with any third parties and you’ll never receive unsolicited mail when entering.

This “A Haunting” contest will end at 11:59 PM (Eastern Time) on March 25th, 2010. All legitimate entries will then be assigned a number in the order they were received. Two numbers will be randomly drawn to determine the winners.

Both winners will then be notified, via the email addresses they provided, no later than March 27th. If one, or both don’t respond (with their shipping information) within two weeks, then one (or two) more number(s) will be drawn to determine the new winner(s). Upon receiving their permission, both winners’ names will be featured at the top of this post.

Update: 12/7/09 Congratulations to Annamarie D. of Rio Rancho, NM, Joe Fishel of Chicago, IL, and Jayson Nickols of Rowlett, TX. They each won a SkulBone Tribal Skull tee (not pictured) in place of the original Pumpkin Glow tee. Update: 11/9/09 This giveaway has closed early. Unfortunately, the supplier I ordered the shirts from did not come through. I placed the order weeks ago, they charged my card, but never shipped the items and they won’t return my e-mail inquiries about the order’s status. For the three people who entered: I promise that all three of you guys will be getting a Skulbone shirt, however, I don’t think I can find another supplier who carries the Pumpkin Glow tee. I sincerely apologize for this, and will be in touch via e-mail as soon as I know which shirt I will giving as a replacement.

If you’ve been visiting SOS for a while, you’re probably already very familiar with my SkulBone t-shirt love affair. SkulBone is a division of “The Mountain” – those are the same guys that sold an astronomical amount of Three Wolf Moon shirts on Amazon a few months ago. All of their prints are phenomenal, whether they’re Halloween, horror or nature related. Anyway, I’m once again giving away their awesome Pumpkin Glow Halloween shirts!

I’m giving three Pumpkin Glow tees (pictured) to three separate winners. I own the SkulBone Zombies and Glow Ghosts shirt and the glow in the dark effect continues to last, even a year later – so, they’re definitely on to something with their “glow technology.”

All three shirts in this giveaway are extra large. SkulBone sizes seem to run fairly standard and at times slightly smaller, so an XL really isn’t huge.

Entering this time is a little more involved than my previous giveaways. I’ve added an entry phrase somewhere in my Halloween Haunter’s Reality 3 video. It’s easy to find, but you have to watch this video to locate it. It will appear in quotes in a text box. Once you locate the phrase, just leave it as part of your message under this post. See below for full entry details.

Upon entering, I ask that you take a few moments to recommend this post to others, whether it’s via your own blog, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace account, etc.

If you don’t have a blog or an account with a social networking site, then please consider e-mailing this link to friends or post it on a message board. I would really appreciate the support.

Please, only one entry per household. Duplicate entries from the same IP will be deleted. This helps to make it fairer for everyone. There’s no catch here, everything is free – including payment of shipping and handling for the Pumpkin Glow shirts – I cover all costs.

To be entered, leave a comment below containing the entry phrase (spelling doesn’t count) found in the Halloween Haunter’s Reality 3 video. Comments which don’t contain the entry phrase will not be approved. Upon approving comments, I will remove the entry phrase, so others, who have yet to watch the video, can’t see the phrase.

When leaving a comment, be sure to enter your correct e-mail address (in the e-mail address box) and be certain to keep track of your spam or bulk folder after the drawing closes. Each winner of the Pumpkin Glow shirts will be contacted through the e-mail address that’s registered with their comment. I will never share addresses, provided by entrants, with any third parties and you’ll never receive unsolicited mail when entering.

The Pumpkin Glow contest will end at 11:59 PM (Eastern Time) on December 10th, 2009. All legitimate entries will then be assigned a number. Three numbers will be randomly drawn to determine the winners.

All winners will then be notified, via the email addresses they provided, no later than December 12th. If one, or all three don’t respond (with their shipping information) within a week, then one (two, or three) more number(s) will be drawn to determine the new winner(s). Upon receiving their permission, the winners’ names will be featured in a future post.
