Escapade fancy dress has unveiled www.halloweenescapade.com,
an interactive and innovative flash based website based around
Halloween and designed for user entertainment.
As one of the UK's predominant fancy dress companies, Escapade have learned a thing
or two about Halloween in its 28 year history. The company has combined this
knowledge with its love for the fun of the season and have created a Halloween
website unlike any other in the world.
The elaborate flash site allows users the chance to really get to enjoy the season
of Halloween in a completely interactive and unique way. The stunning site is set
out like an adventure land and the longer that the user spends on it, the more they
uncover, find and enjoy.
The one of a kind site features a fully interactive flash adventure with graphically
enhanced games, food recipes, a plethora of essential Halloween freebies, short
stories, cocktail recipes, Halloween stories from around the world and articles
ranging from the history of Halloween to legends about notorious characters
associated with the season.
An even more exciting feature of the site is that it changes completely between day
and night. During the day time the site has content and graphics that are family
friendly and aimed at children, but after 7:30pm all of the content on the site
alters drastically with a completely new selection of graphic games and content,
making it worth a visit at least twice. The site is the first of its kind in the
Halloween market and an amazing development for the festive season.
The idea for the site came about while researching the Halloween market in the UK
and the rest of the world and discovering that there was a gap in the market. While
there are a plethora of websites out there dedicated to selling costumes and
providing useful Halloween information, there are very few Halloween sites dedicated
towards user interactive fun. This is why Escapade decided to create a site
dedicated to the user, allowing them to really get into the spirit of Halloween in
an interactive and fun way.
Escapade Director, Bhupendra Maisuria said: "The aim of the site is to bring the
fun of the Halloween season back to its roots in the United Kingdom. The majority of
the world believes that Halloween is an American holiday due to the popularity of
the season in the United States. However, it is important to remember that Halloween
is British and we are excited about the opportunity of giving the public a chance to
reconnect with this fact in a fun and interactive manner."
