Headless Boy Wins Patch Halloween Costume Contest

On Halloween, we asked you to post your kids' photos for our . You did — and so did nearly 2,700 others across Patch sites nationwide.

We thought you would want to see the national winner — he's a in New Jersey.

We also thought you'd want to peruse the photos of the other nine finalists. Personally, we thought some of the should have made it as finalists, at least—but then, we might be a tad biased.

Still, it's never too early to start on next year's Halloween costume, right?

Until next Halloween ...
