Winners Announcement

The wait is over! Thank you all for your patience—we know this announcement was delayed. We’re thrilled to announce the winners of the Frontend Challenge: Halloween Edition. Reviewing the submissions was a delight, filled with spooky creativity and Halloween spirit. We loved seeing both the technical skill and imaginative approaches the community brought to the prompts. Whether or not you took the crown, be proud of what you accomplished!

@annavi11arrea1 – Animated Vampire Lady

A vampire lady comes to life with animated blinking eyes, dripping blood, and mysterious creatures peering from behind a castle wall. The level of detail—from facial shading achieved through gradients to the creative brick‑wall construction using CSS Grid—showcases exceptional technical prowess and artistic vision.

@amelia2802 – “Step Into Mystic Falls” (A Halloween Storytelling Game)

An immersive storytelling experience inspired by The Vampire Diaries. Users are invited through the Founder’s Ball, where they choose their attire, select a companion, and discover their supernatural identity. The journey is built with vanilla JavaScript and elegant CSS animations, offering a beautifully crafted interactive adventure.
