Submit your horror or halloween movie review using the below form and you'll have a chance to win in the monthly prize drawing. Your review doesn't have to be for a movie listed here yet...I love hearing about other scary movies you've seen that may not be listed here and adding them to this site!
Each month I'll select the best submission to the site to receive a special prize! As you can see on the winner's page, I've already given away a good number of scary movies on DVD, but there's always the possibility of a movie poster, game, or even the official Scared-Out-of-Your-Wits.com mug!
Often times, I'll ask you, the winner, what you want as your prize! Hard to beat that, isn't it? If you find another horror site that gives away monthly prizes and even lets you pick your own prize, well, I'd really like to see it so forward me the URL (who knows…maybe I'll even try to top them too).
But the monthly prize is just the beginning! You can learn all about the special grand prize drawing on Halloween night as well as check out the latest monthly winners at Win Free Stuff!
