Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant Movie Giveaway

Once again, this is one giveaway I am so excited to share to you all, my dear readers: a chance to see the new movie everyone is talking about, "Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant".

Here's a short theatrical trailer of this exciting new fantasy-adventure movie:



ABOUT THE MOVIE:

Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant, based on the popular series of books by Darren Shan, is a fantasy-adventure about a teenager who unknowingly breaks a 200-year-old truce between two warring factions of vampires. Pulled into a fantastic life of misunderstood sideshow freaks and creatures of the night, one teen will vanish from the safety of a boring existence and fulfill his destiny in a place drawn from nightmares.



Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant will be in theaters October 23rd and has been rated PG-13 so parents are strongly cautioned as some material may be inappropriate for children under 13 (i.e. for sequences of intense supernatural violence and action, thematic elements and some language).

Consequently, the new movie edition THE VAMPIRE'S ASSISTANT and Other Tales from the Cirque du Freak by Darren Shan was just released last month and is now available at your leading book retailers and at Amazon.com. This book features the first three books--Cirque Du Freak, The Vampire's Assistant, and Tunnels of Blood- all bound up in one volume!

THE GIVEAWAY:



One (1) Grand Prize winner receives:
* $50 Fandango.com Gift Card
* Youth backpack, T-shirt, Locker mirror and copy of the book The Vampire's Assistant and Other Tales from the Cirque Du Freak by Darren Shan!


Four (4) Additional winners will receive:
* Youth backpack, T-shirt, Locker mirror and copy of the book The Vampire's Assistant and Other Tales from the Cirque Du Freak by Darren Shan!

I have not read this series but really enjoyed the Twilight books. I would love to see this. WInning movie tickets is the only way I get to go to the movies since hubby thinks it is to expensive.

Brett said...

Free competition time again, those wonderful people at blurb have given me 3 voucher worth £30 each to give away, to help promote their latest book competition in which you could win $3,000. The book competition ends on the 22/10 so to give the winners of the vouchers time to do their books this give away ends on Friday 9th.

To enter you just need to follow one of my blogs and tell me your funniest pet, travel or family related story. If you already have a post on your blog just link to that in the comment and I will read it there.

Why have I chosen those categories well they just happen to be the themes of the books for Blurbs competition, Pets, Travel or Families, so get your thinking caps on as this competition for the £30 vouchers ends Friday.
