As is tradition here at FH, this past Saturday, we had our annual Halloween gala and costume contest. The years of hundreds of attending ended during Covid, but although we have reduced our numbers, a small group of spectators were welcomed at this years bash. If you couldn't attend however, we were camera ready, with some of the best and most creative non-costumes featured here. Below are this years winners.

Before listing this year's winners, in the spirit of full transparency, I must first address two controversies from this year's event. The first is the costume pictured above. Although we welcome nudity, the rules clearly state it is a 'costume' contest. That means, there must be some form of fashion. It can be minimal, even just a loin cloth or bandana, but there must be fashion, jewelry or some sort of accessory. Coming as a nudist, wearing absolutely nothing, may get you a ride home, but it will not earn you the trophy.
Secondly, some of you may have read on TMZ that one of the judges whose been with the contest for years was fired during the ceremonies. Although some contestants welcome judges, and fellow guests, to touch their costumes, sliding ones hand under the spandex is strictly prohibited. We apologize to the Twinky Superman who filed the complaint. He seemed to bounce back as the last I saw him, he was seen leaving with one of the boxers. (see below) Now, onto this year's winners!
King of the Jungle
Our blond Tarzan won over the judges with his smile and his abs. He also sealed the deal by hitting the dance floor and spinning around, ensuring his loin cloth blew int he air confirming he was indeed King of Jungle and Lord of the Apes.
Maiden
Our fair maiden (above) looked like he needed a Knight or Valiant Hero to come to his rescue, he had the muscles to handle anything that came up. And... he came up quite often over the course of the evening, something his sheer attire could not possible hide.
Greek God
As fetching as our Greek God, (above) looked in his toga, it wasn't the costume that secured him in the finals. It was his beautiful eyes, and those luscious lips, that really had the judges in a tizzy.
Weigh In
We had two contestants this year come as boxers, ready for their weigh in. Although both were knockouts, the boxer who came sans his jock-strap eventually took the match.
Cyclops
There were several hotties who came as Cyclops this year. These were our two finalists. Ultimately, it was the Cyclops below who won. Could have been his willingness to given each of the judges the full force of his optic blasts.
Men of the Cloth:
As always, we had several contestants come as man of the cloth. Adult film superstar
Reece Scott, (above) came as a character simply known as Father. He spent most of the night leading Twinks into his confessional booth. The Holy man below called himself Reverend Rainbow, insisting there was more than gold waiting at the end of his rainbow.

the judges were not exactly sure what
Dyllan, (above) had in in mind for a character for his holiday ensemble, but they did like the creative results!
Lucifer
Every year, the part is full of Horney little devils, and this year,
estebancoach certainly brought the Hades hottness!
Our Top Three
Tissue?
So, although the judges agreed our tissue box wasn't the most creative costume, he still came in a respectable third. He took the prize for practicality and use. As you can imagine, tissues were in high demand, so people were grabbing and pulling at his box all night long. By the time the party finally ended, his supply had completely drained!
Patrick Bateman
Every year, we get variations of the iconic Patrick Bateman. (above) This year, he went method, matching the wardrobe, or lack thereof, of the famous scene from the movie. He also really wanted to trim his pubic hair with his chainsaw, something the judges sadly had to deny due to safety reasons.
Although Jason, (below) is a horror staple, the judges had admit, they were getting a bit tired of seeing the character year after year. The contestant below however, put a twist on his costume, using raspberry jam instead of blood to adorn his naked skin. It was homemade jam by the way, which he invited the judges to try, and lick off. In addition to making everyone wet and sticky, it pushed him over the top!
