Stickam.com celebrates Halloween with West Hollywood broadcast, online costume contest and other treats

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 25 – As West Hollywood prepares for its highly-anticipated Halloween Costume Carnaval, the rapidly-growing broadcasting and social networking website Stickam (www.stickam.com) has announced plans to stream the world’s largest Halloween street party live on October 31.

Stickam will broadcast the festivities from the heart of flashy Santa Monica Boulevard. And with more than 450,000 enthusiastic party-goers expected at this year’s event, there should be no shortage of Halloween revelry for the site’s 170,000 plus members.

Visitors to Stickam’s special Halloween page will have access to three separate feeds of the 6-hour extravaganza, which features an outrageous costume contest, DJs and other musical performances.

In addition to the live broadcast of the 19th annual event, Stickam will also showcase special in-person commentary from one of online video's star attractions, GayGod.

As one of Stickam’s most popular live broadcasters (www.stickam.com/profile/gaygod), and YouTube’s 7th most subscribed to member (http://youtube.com/profile?user=GayGod), GayGod (aka Matthew Lush) will share his colorful observations direct from the event with some of his hundreds of thousands of online fans.

“It’s so cool, I’m really excited,” said Lush, who will be a first-time attendee at this year’s West Hollywood Halloween celebration.

In just three months, the popular video blogger and Los Angeles transplant has generated tens of thousands of views of his Stickam profile page.

Stickam’s unique multi-stream Halloween broadcast is part of a series of festivities featured on the site throughout October.

Today, Stickam kicks off its Halloween Costume Contest, featuring a $500 first place prize and webcams for 19 runners-up. Members can upload their videos and photos from a computer or cell phone, and vote for their favorite submissions on the site until November 6.

In another Halloween treat, Stickam visitors can also watch and chat about the classic horror films “Night of the Living Dead,” “Nosferatu” and “The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari,” all streaming consecutively on Stickam’s special Media Chat page.
