Halloween is my favorite holiday of the year. When kids (and adults) get to dress up as their favorite comic book heroes, superstars, animals or even be a little devilish. Trick or treating on a brisk autumn evening and playing Monster Mash over and over (kidding). What is not to love about this holiday? So, to treat all of you cachers in cache-land I give you the Halloween Theme - Challenge.
Your job is to find at least 15 caches with Halloween Themes in the name of the cache. You may only use each theme ONCE. For example, if you chose a superhero you can only pick one to count towards your 15 needed caches. Here is a list of ACCEPTABLE Halloween Themes.
VAMPIRE (DRACULA), WEREWOLF, FRANKENSTIEN, MUMMY, ZOMBIE, WITCH, GHOST, GHOUL, DEVIL (DEMON), SPIDER (SNAKE), BAT, CLOWN, PUMPKIN (JACK-O-LANTERN), GARGOYLE, GOBLIN, SKELETON, SCARECROW, MONSTER, ALIEN, MONKEY, PIRATE, CEMETERY, PHANTOM, BOO, HAUNTED, TROLL, COWBOY (INDIAN), FELINE (CAT, TIGER, ETC), SUPERHERO (SUPERMAN, SPIDERMAN, ETC), PRINCESS (SNOW WHITE, CINDERELLA, ETC), CARTOON CHARACTER (MICKEY MOUSE, BUGS BUNNY, ETC), and one of your choice or "Potpourri" as I will call it (TOY, TIN MAN, etc).
In addition to finding 15 different Halloween Themes please find at least (3) different types of caches or categories (icons) when posting your finds. (Traditional, Multi, Unknown, Letterbox, Web, Virtual, Events. etc).
You may use the plural of the Halloween Theme. You may send me “OTHER” themes that are not on this list which I will determine if they fit and get back to you on. I may or may not allow them.
I am adding one final requirement and that is you must find at least 2 of the 15 Halloween Themes after October 1, 2011. All the rest you may have already found.
