A Grimm’s Night was anything but a grim occasion, with prizes and sweet treats filling the CUB Multipurpose Room on Halloween night.

During the walk-through of the event, a cotton candy machine was directly to the left when entering, earning attendees a raffle ticket and a sugary treat. 

Following that was a chance to spin a wheel for a fidget toy along with a slime-making station. 

Students had creative freedom and were able to bedazzle a handheld mirror, along with a glass shoe and sock puppet decoration. On the stage was a mystery box for students to reach into. A correct guess of what was inside would award more tickets. 

The costume contest had an assortment of creative, skillfully crafted costumes. Six categories were awarded with golden skeleton trophies by a panel of judges after their deliberation. These categories included both best overall costume and best costume, with the best costume category acting as second place. 

The overall best costume was presented to Luqman Elramadi for his completely handmade Batman costume, with his gravely Batman voice to accompany it. 

The best costume went to David Nichols. He created a Clash of Clans wizard costume with a fireball included by covering a balloon with thin red paper that gave the illusion of flames. 

The most creative was received by Gabby Hall for her Harpy costume, which featured a detailed crafting of wings with hand-dyed feathers attached to a covered wooden wing frame. 

The most original was awarded to Jara Erdossy as King Louis of France, showing a detailed, royal look.

The most funny went to Jacob Pittman’s Tray Parker outfit.

The most scary was received by Emily Cantrell’s “the better skeleton” costume as two skeletons battled for the spot. 

Hamburgers, hot dogs, chips and Halloween cookies were provided by dining services, centrally located in the room for people to enjoy at their leisure.  

The night was equal parts spooky and fun.
