We have heard the not-so-distant grumblings about there not being a Hallowe'en namechange competition this year.

So now there is!

All you need to do to enter is check in your Hallowe'en name by posting on this thread. Please tell us your usual nickname too, so we can chortle at how spookily witty your namechange is.

We will then draw up a shortlist of the best names (no quibbling with the judges, please) - and bung 'em in a poll, so you can all vote for the one you want to win.

There will be a fabulous prize for the winner (and maybe a smidgeon of something for a runner-up or two). Details to be announced once we've got our act together soon.

Thank you - and good luck!

Do I get extra points for posting after the witching hour?

HouseOfHorrorMum · 23/10/2009 00:23

WTF??!! Hello! Post above makes more sense now... (unless you have a morbid fear of medical dramas in which case housemum might be scary enough...)

HouseOfHorrorMum · 23/10/2009 00:22

oh bugger, didn't work...

Housemum · 23/10/2009 00:22

Well my new nickname is probably appropriate given the trail of devastation DD3 leaves in her wake - Housemum

now all you halloween name changers, please note that some of us are all-year-round witches not just for the bewitching season. And I giggle.

LongDeadMotherofHorrors · 22/10/2009 23:59

Normally (if ever that could describe me) my disguise is LongDeadMotherofHarryP (clearly I've been on a break from MN since the launch of the last HP book...sorry but real life intervened).

But now, I reveal that Harry Potter has two siblings (what a plot line that would have made!), and yes, together they make up the awesome trio, the Horrors!

Still dead though, so I don't suppose I'll notice if I win nothing, even your attention.
