Get Spooky with The Behemoth’s 2020 Halloween Contest!

Pumpkins, crunchy leaves, and all things eepy and creepy — spooky season is in full swing!

As if this year wasn’t already scary enough, we’re going to encourage striking even more fear into people’s hearts with our 2020 Halloween Drawing Contests!

You have two ways to enter, one being extra spooky and the other being the perfect place to experiment with tricks or treats… we’ll show you what we mean.

Spooky Behemoth Art Contest

The first category is a contest for Spooky Behemoth Art! It’s your scary destiny to recreate a Behemoth character or something from one of our games in the creepiest, crawliest, ookiest, spookiest way possible. Don’t hold back! (But do keep it safe for work, because we are… working.)

Chicken Costume Contest

If nightmare fuel isn’t quite your thing, we’re also putting a unique spin on a costume contest this year, featuring our star, the chicken! For the Chicken Costume Contest, start with the chicken below (or draw your own version of it) and put it in the best Halloween costume you can think of!

Both categories will have 3 winners each, with one winner for each category and prizes as follows:

(1) The Best (in Our Humble Opinion)
Spooky Art Contest: “Bear” Figurine
Chicken Costume Contest: Skeleton Figurine

(2) The Spookiest Scariest
Both Contests: Bitey Bat Hat and Necromancer Keychain

(3) The One That Makes Us Laugh ’til We Cry
Both Contests: Racoon Hat

Or, for you straightforward people, that’s Best in Show, Scariest, and Funniest. We’ll pick winners based on creativity, originality, and the ability to make us feel emotions that we weren’t previously feeling.

To enter, just post your drawing publicly (or a picture of it) to Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook using the hashtag #BehemothHalloween before October 31st, 2020 at 11:59 PM PT. We will review the entries and select our winners during the first week of November, and winners will receive spooky Behemoth merchandise!

You can see the scariest stuff of all right here — official rules and legal stuff:

•No purchase necessary.
•Must be 18 or older to enter (if in the US), or have parental consent.
•Group entries are allowed! (Only one prize pack per winning individual or group).
•Your entry must be your own creation (or your group’s, parent’s, family’s).
•Only new decoration entries will be accepted (entries that were submitted in previous years will not be eligible).
•You may enter more than one unique entry.
•International participants are welcome!


If you need a little inspiration to kick start your art, keep an eye out on our social channels, especially Twitter and Instagram! We’ll be sharing some… pretty awful but definitely amazing things in the weeks leading up to Halloween. WoohoooOOOOooo! *Ghost noises*

Join Souls and Go Forth: It’s a Pit People 2v2 Tournament

Find a partner and get ready to join souls cyclops-style, because a Pit People 2v2 tournament is happening soon!

Find someone who’s willing to go to the ends of the Earth with you (or just the ends of the Pit, back and forth while you chase your enemies) because from Saturday, August 8th to Sunday, August 16th, you’ll be going all out in a PC Pit People 2v2 tournament!

And of course, glory comes with prizes, too! Each member of the winning pair will earn themselves a shiny new set of Pit People figurines.

Itching to join the fight? Or maybe just itching in general?

Join the POOP (Pit Official Offensive People) Discord server and let tournament organizers Normandia or KreeperKiller63 know that you and your teammate want in on the challenge. If you haven’t found someone to join souls with yet (we know, it’s a big commitment) the Discord server is the perfect place to make new friends!

We can’t wait to see who brings the sickest strats and gets that “W.” (Is that what the kids are saying these days?)

Pit People Tournament: Permadeath Edition

It’s time for another Pit People POOP tournament, but this one has consequences.

This month’s PC tournament challenges players to 1v1 their peers; only this time, all tournament matches will be played in Permadeath Mode. If you lose a character in the pit, they’re gone for good, even if you emerge victorious and have to soldier on.

The first place winner will get a Pit People Hoodie, with 2nd and 3rd place getting Pit People T-shirts so that you can flaunt your killer victory. (And if we don’t have your size, you’ll get a plush or figurine instead!)

Think you can handle it?

Matches will be scheduled to take place between February 15th and February 23nd based off of competitor’s schedules. If you think you have what it takes, sign up by joining the Pit Official Offensive People (Yes, that’s the TRUE meaning of P.O.O.P.) Discord server and letting Normandia or KreeperKiller63 know you want to be a Pit People P.O.O.P. Participant.

Be sure to get to recruiting characters well ahead of time, too; if you lose one in the competition, you won’t be able to use them anymore (or ever again, for that matter).

This tournament is going to be a true test of Pit People skill — do you have what it takes?
