Today is the first day of fall, which means that the Halloween season has officially shifted into high gear. What better way to celebrate than by treating yourself (or a friend!) to a spooky set of macabre magnetic poetry magnets, courtesy of Magnets de los Muertos? We’re giving away one set of creepy magnetic poetry – and you get to choose which set you’ll receive, from aliens and killer clowns to vampires and witches. Turn your fridge into a showcase for all things ghoulish and ghastly, explore your creative side, and invite your friends to play along.
Magnets de los Muertos was born after a weekend-long zombie movie bender, but the fun doesn’t stop with the living dead – indeed, there are 10 different vexing varieties of magnetic poetry available. Find out what they are and how you can enter to win a set of your own after the jump.
For those of you who like to work blue, don’t worry: As with any kind of magnetic poetry, the potential for obscenity is still there, as evidenced by this PG-13 pirate poem at right. The difference here is the words you’ll receive. Instead of treacle like “soul,” “love,” ‘yearning,” and so forth, you’ll have some truly awesome words to work with – think “braaiiiiins” and “chainsaw” in the zombie set, “cauldron” and “gallows” in the witch set, and so forth. Imagine the horrific possibilities!
Here are the 10 different varieties of macabre magnetic poetry offered by Magnets de los Muertos:
- Alien
- Axe Murderess
- Haunted House
- Killer Clown
- Pirate
- Robot
- Vampire
- Witch
- Zombie
- Zombie Classic
In addition to hundreds of words, including modifiers and 4 blank magnets so you can add a few of your own, each set includes a 2.5″ square artwork magnet – you can preview all of them on the website. Ready to win your own?
TO ENTER, simply leave a comment with your best horror-themed haiku, the name of the magnet set you want to win, and your email address. We’ll pick one from among the most creative and, of course, creepy. The contest will run through the end of the month, and the winner will be contacted on Thursday, October 1st. Good luck!
