As of the DEADline yesterday, the 10th, all of our judges have
weighed in on the many categories covered in the Haunt X Awards and have
identified all the winners and the finalists for each!


Once again, it is our GREAT PLEASURE here at Haunt X to announce the
nominees for the 2005 HAUNT X AWARDS which will be given out LIVE at the
awards ceremony at the LAX Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles Ca. on Feb 19th,
2006. http://www.hauntx.com/HauntXAwards/hauntxaward.htm No purchase
required to attend.


Besides the awards below, we will see the winning entries of the
CHALLENGE 2006 animatronics plus their creators awarded their
hand-scultped SOLID GOLD* trophies live!


This event is free to attend and will feature many awards of course,
plus the dazzling talent of world class Illusionist Paul F. Fegen
http://www.fegen.com.


A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS goes out to these folks for being nominated,
as this represents the VERY BEST of the Haunter's Video Compilation for
2005 of over 100 HAUNTERS, assembled by Halloween Propmaster:
(http://www.halloweenpropmaster.com/halloween_video.htm) And a GREAT job
it is Propmaster!


We ask that you make it your greatest effort to attend the awards
ceremony in person, as your acceptance will be captured for the 2006
Haunters Video Compilation! Not to mention the fact that you will be
receiving this in front of your peers; hundreds of other haunters and
halloween fans from all over the US and in fact the world, such as the
UK as well as Australia this year, to name the countries we _know_ of
where guests will be coming from.


I hope to see you all there!
