TOMS RIVER, N.J., Oct. 31, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Wonderama,
the award-winning family series known for showcasing kids and their
amazing talents, delivered a truckload of candy to the O'Sullivan
kids – Sadie, 9, Aiden, 9, Kenley, 7, and Maybre, 5 – the grand
prize winners of its Wonderama Wonder-een Costume Contest. Arriving
at the O'Sullivan family's front door the day before Halloween,
Wonderama unloaded a dump truck carrying 1,200 pounds of candy
provided by Torie & Howard – a spook-tacular treat for the
O'Sullivan children to share with friends and family.
The O'Sullivan kids were awarded the contest's grand prize for
their playful and creative costumes (images available at the link
below). In addition to the enormous truck full of candy, the family
was featured on the Wonderama Friday Night "Haunted" House Party
where they were interviewed by host David
Osmond.
"We were so shocked and excited to win! You wouldn't believe how
much 1,200 pounds of candy really is. This definitely made up for
not being able to trick-or-treat this year, but mom made us promise
to share with everyone we know," said Aiden
O'Sullivan, age 9 who won the contest with her siblings.
In addition to the Wonderama Wonder-een Costume Contest grand
prize, winners were chosen in four additional categories:
Gessica Cantatore from Bridgewater, New Jersey for scariest costume;
Caleb Kandel from Somers, New York for funniest costume;
Zoey Gilbert from Salt Lake City, Utah for most creative
costume; Everett & Emerson Dorr
from Westminster, Colorado for
cutest costume. Each of the category winners will receive an
exclusive Halloween-themed Wondercrate full of candy and fun for
the whole family. Images are available at the link below.
Presented by the Wonderama Friday Night "Haunted" House Party,
the Wonder-een Halloween Costume Contest ran through October 27th. To enter, families posted their
best Halloween costume photo to Instagram or Facebook using the
hashtag #Wonderama2020 and tagging @WonderamaTV. All entries were
judged on attention to detail, creativity and originality, theme
execution, and overall presentation. Sadie, Aiden, Kenley, and
Maybre O'Sullivan took home the
grand prize for their cute and spooky costumes.
"With everything going on in the world, it's important that we
are still creating opportunities for kids to just be kids and have
fun," said Charles Armstrong, CEO of
Armstrong Interactive, Inc. and Wonderama Entertainment Holdings.
"Halloween may look very different for everyone this year but we
know it's still all about the candy so Wonderama found a way to go
just a little bit over the top for one family, and maybe their
whole neighborhood, to make sure this is a Halloween they'll never
forget - for a good reason!"
