Here’s Your Chance My Friends

It’s that time of the year my friends.  The time that I start working on my 31 Days of Spook for October .  Every day in October , I will highlight everything spooky, things that go bump in the night, the “boo’s” that yell at you and I will ask you intriguing questions that keep you on the edge of your seat.   I hope that you enjoy it as much this year as you have in the past.  It takes a lot of time to work on so that’s why I need to start now.

I’m taking submissions for stories (true or not) that you have experienced.  Perhaps there is something spooky about an area in your town.  A supposed haunted house or spooky cemetery.  A legend that is known in your area.

I f you would like to be highlighted during my 31 Days of Spook, send me an email at Bacon.Thompson@gmail.com

I will need your name, blog address (if applicable) and story.  I will email you back a date/time that you will be highlighted on my blog in October .  Stories can be marked anonymous – but I will need your name for my records okay.  Can’t wait to see everything in October – BOO!

Here’s Your Chance My Friends – REMINDER

   It’s that time of the year my friends.  The time that I start working on my 31 Days of Spook for October 2015.  Every day in October 2015, I will highlight everything spooky, things that go bump in the night, the “boo’s” that yell at you and I will ask you intriguing questions that keep you on the edge of your seat.  This is the third year that I will be doing this and it does take some time to get together all of the different stories.  I hope that you enjoy it as much this year as you have in the past.

.

Like last year, I’m taking submissions for stories (true or not) that you have experienced.  Perhaps there is something spooky about an area in your town.  A supposed haunted house or spooky cemetery.  A legend that is known in your area.

If you would like to be highlighted during my 31 Days of Spooksend me an email at Bacon.Thompson@gmail.com  

I will need your name, blog address (if applicable) and story.  I will email you back a date/time that you will be highlighted on my blog in October 2015.  Stories can be marked anonymous – but I will need your name for my records okay.  Can’t wait to see everything in October – BOO!

Elf on Shelf Contest – Winner

IMG_0146 IMG_0145-0

So this contest is said and done.  First up – I want to thank EVERYONE that submitted emails and EVERYONE that voted.  We really appreciate that here at the Hotel Thompson.  There were some great emails sent and don’t worry – there will be more contests in the future 🙂

It was a very close race in the voting.  The top 3 according to the list were:

No. 3 – Evil Squirrel

No. 2 – Sammy

No. 1 WINNER – Samuel and Wallace!

Congratulations my friends.  South Africa is going to get their very own Elf on the Shelf.

Samuel and Wallace, please send me your address to send you your new friend.  You will need to name him before Thanksgiving.  Keep in mind, he is related to our Don Juan but who knows what his personality will be until after he receives his powers the day after Thanksgiving.  Don’t forget to post updates on him.  We will surely miss the guy here at the Hotel Thompson.

Contest Time! – REMINDER

C O N T E S T     T I M E 

Don’t forget about our contest my friends. YAY!

Shake your tail feathers.  Do a little dance.  Have some fun – it’s contest time!  It’s so exciting.  We’ve been thinking about a contest here at the Hotel Thompson and I think we have a winner!

Every year at the Hotel Thompson the day after Thanksgiving our friend Don Juan comes out to play.  You remember Don Juan don’t you?  He’s our special little Elf on a Shelf that is *always* up to no good in so many different ways.   If you forgot about Don Juan, you can read about that little fellow here .  And we all have to remember when Don Juan filled in for me on a special Dear Bacon edition.  Oh dear piggy heavens.   Thank goodness he only sneaks out once a year.

I think we ALL remember this little surprise he left mommy last year under the Christmas tree.  Rolls piggy eyes.  He was bad.  I mean really bad.  He even liked to sneak in the bathroom and watch mommy take a shower.  He would throw skittles at her.  Unreal that fellow.

This year we thought we would share the fun.  That’s it.  Share the fun.  You can have your very own Evil Little Elf on a Shelf.  A friend of Don Juan has come to visit us here early.  He’s still boxed up because you know those elves don’t have secret powers until the day after Thanksgiving.

Here are the rules for the contest: 

  1. Send me an email at baconthompson@gmail.com why you think you should adopt the boxed up Elf on the Shelf.  Explain what makes your family special and what you have to give.  Words, pictures or videos.  Whatever you think will give you the edge.

  2. We are taking submissions until August 30th, 2014 at midnight.

  3. We will randomly pick the top three submissions and post them for everyone to vote on in September.

  4. The winner gets their very own boxed up Elf on the Shelf.  Now remember, this is a friend of our Don Juan.  Who knows if he is evil or good.  That’s between the winner and the boxed up Elf on the Shelf.

So put on your thinking hats my friends and get started with the emails.  It should be a blast!

 P.S.  Here’s a heads up sneak preview of the captured Elf.  He doesn’t look that evil – or does he?
