CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Belk is giving its customers an exciting, new way to celebrate the spookiest day of the year! While many traditional Halloween activities are limited due to the ongoing pandemic, Belk is offering its customers a safe way to show their Halloween spirit by hosting an online costume contest and a chance to win a scary good prize.

During the week of Halloween (Oct. 26–31), customers are encouraged to create unique costumes found both in-store and at home, and post photos on Instagram and Facebook using the hashtag #BelkCostumeChallenge2020. The first place costume will win a $500 Belk gift card, second place will win a $250 Belk gift card and third place will be rewarded with a $100 Belk gift card, just in time for the holidays.
