New deadline is Monday. Someone in Minnesota will win $250. Someone in the United States will win $5,000.

You have until the end of the day on Monday to enter Patch's national Halloween Photo contest. Due to Hurricane/Superstorm Sandy, Patch has extended the deadline for entries to 11:59 p.m. on Nov. 5.

It doesn’t matter if you’re Lady Gaga or Lady Liberty for Halloween—if you have an awesome costume, showcase your creation in our Best Halloween Costume in America Contest.

The contest runs from Oct. 15–Nov. 5. National judges will choose 21 finalists from each Patch state and select one grand prize winner based on who has the most creative and innovative costume (we've combined North Carolina and South Carolina for this contest, as well as Washington, D.C. and Virginia). Each state finalist will receive $250 and one grand prize winner will receive $5,000.

If your costume is the best in Minnesota and will put all others to shame, enter our contest now for the chance to win $5,000.
