The town is the game board
Your passport turns the actual town into a game: pick a place, collect a stamp or a photo, find your next stop.
One costume. A whole town of possibilities.
Give your costume
a night out.
Meet your friends, take a photo strip, and wander into somewhere new. Pick the places you like and the prizes you want. We put the stops in walking order, so you can spend your night having fun.
- Dress up. Pick your stops.
Swipe the confirmed places below. Like a room, skip another, and rank the prizes that catch your eye.
- Take a photo. Enter at the stop.
Scan the shop's Keepbooth QR or use its photo-booth button. Keep your strip and leave a phone number or email so the shop can reach you if you win.
- Keep wandering.
Each participating business chooses its costume winner independently. More stops mean more separate contests to enter. Each prize has its own quantity and entry details.
The photo booth, by Keepbooth
A strip to keep.
A costume to remember.
Use the booth at a participating shop, or open Keepbooth on your phone. Take your photos, choose the available frame or look, and keep your strip. Dress-up props and costume choices depend on the stop; your own costume is always welcome.
Photo booths at Glacier (directions ↗) and The Whiskey (hours →). Party, judging and prize details: the costume party page →
Put Keepbooth on your phone
Open keepbooth.com in your phone's browser. On iPhone, use Safari → Share → Add to Home Screen. On Android, use Chrome's menu → Install app or Add to Home Screen. Then open it from your home screen. You can also use it directly in the browser.
Enter the costume contest
At a contest-enabled stop, keeping your strip creates your photo entry. Add your number or email on the strip's entry page so the shop can contact you. The shop chooses its own winner; a saved route or a photo taken away from the stop is not a verified hunt visit.
How the game works
The costume, the prizes,
and the points.
Costume prizes. Each participating shop judges independently. Enter at the shops whose prizes you want. Visiting more shops gives you more contests to enter; it does not create duplicate entries at the same shop.
Hidden gifts. A prize marked “Hidden here” goes to the first finder under that gift's instructions. Costume prizes are chosen by the shop.
Visit points. Join the Halloween passport with your shared account before taking your check-in photo. Save an eligible photo at a participating stop to record your check-in. Your first check-in at that stop earns its regular points, plus the offered bonus if your photo came from a verified physical booth. Each stop counts once; a later booth photo adds no points. A saved route or a place you merely liked earns no points.
The Halloween round. A Halloween round is planned: on Halloween the stops open again for one more round. Its points are announced with the rules, before it starts. Whatever you collect before then stays in your passport.
Costume points. Entering your costume does not earn hunt points under the current rules. It enters you for the judged costume prizes.
Know your stops. Check each shop's hours and age policy. Children go with a guardian. Step-free routes include only stops with confirmed access information.
Your paper backup. Print your route before you go. If the phone fails, ask the participating business to stamp your paper passport; the organizer can record those visits later.
The costume contest is not sponsored or administered by Meta.
