Last night, The Halloween & Costume Association (HCA) held its inaugural Spooky Awards at the Halloween & Party Expo in Las Vegas.
This new honor spotlights “outstanding artistry, craftsmanship, and marketable creativity, recognizing creators who capture the true spirit of Halloween.”
A panel of judges, including retail buyers, industry experts, and the editor-in-chief of a certain toy industry trade magazine [Spoiler Alert: It’s me] was revealed last fall and evaluated the nominees and finalists across key criteria, including innovation, marketability, and trendsetting potential.
Last night’s ceremony was live-streamed on the Disguise Instagram account. Check out the winners below!
