NANCY DREW® COSPLAY & PUMPKIN CONTESTS
This October, join us for our Cosplay and Pumpkin Contests! Get out your makeup kit and piece together a Nancy Drew®-themed costume! Who (or what) will you be? A spooky character like Charlotte, a classic character like Joe Hardy, or something completely unexpected? Or, sharpen your carving tools and grab your paint to share a spectacular glowing gourd. Please read the following instructions and rules carefully. If you’re still not sure about something, please email us at: contest@herinteractive.com.
Cosplay Categories:
1. Best Costume: This could be the most Nancy Drew® themed, the funniest, or the most creative costume. Example: you could be Professor Hotchkiss eating 50 chicken wings or the sword Nancy brings Ned from Iceland. (Picture or Video submission. One winner chosen.)
2. Makeup + Special Effects: Show off your cosplay skills with movie makeup or special effects. Example: dress up as the Creature from Castle Malloy. (Picture or Video submission. One winner chosen.)
3. Mystery of the Seven Keys: Either best costume or best Makeup / Special Effects, but specifically themed to Nancy’s newest adventure, Mystery of the Seven Keys!
4. Best Pet Costume: New this year, we want to include your furry (or maybe scaly) friends! Any Nancy Drew costume, but modeled on a pet! This can be any animal, not just dogs and cats. If you have birds, rabbits, horses, snakes, fish, or other animals that can represent Nancy Drew (in a safe and conscientious way), we want to see them, too!

- Creativity
- Nancy Drew® Game theme/relation
- Technical Execution (Easy and accessible is good; difficult and well-executed is also good!)

Frequently Asked Questions:
- Having your friends or parents help you is acceptable. You may use bought costumes but they should be altered to match the character/object you are trying to emulate. The more original the costume, the better it will rank. The examples given above are just that—you should create your own!
- Your costume must have a Nancy Drew® Game theme. Be creative! You can be a classic character, a Koko Kringle, a puzzle, or anything as long as it ties into the game.
- Your entry must show the end result, but if you enter a video, you are welcome to show the process of how you got there if you’d like.
- This is a costume contest, but the setting you take your photo/video in will also be weighed when our team is voting. Get creative or try to use a background that doesn’t detract from your costume.
- Pictures from past contests or sweepstakes that we have sponsored are not eligible for entry into the Contest.
- You may submit as many entries as you like and you may submit the same entry for judgment in multiple categories. Go nuts! However, please do not submit the same entry more than once.
