Phancy a cold one? Enter Chronicle Brewery’s limited Phantasm beer label contest, sponsored by Rue Morgue!

This Halloween season, Phantasm and Chronicle Brewing Co. are joining forces for a line of limited edition beers that celebrate a franchise better known for its Tall Man than its tall cans! Do you have what it takes to design a label worthy of this collab? Read on!

To enter, simply download the blank templates and add your original artwork (don’t use any of the actor’s likenesses, though – that’ll get you disqualified!). Submit a high-res digital file to fan-tasm@chroniclebeer.com by September 15 to enter! Finalists will be posted here on rue-morgue.com and on social media in October.

The three winners will not only see their artwork adorning the limited beer line, but will receive prize packs of Phantasm swag, valued at over $250! Includes:

  • A one-year subscription to Rue Morgue Magazine
  • A copy of Rue Morgue Library v8: official Phantasm Companion
  • Officially licensed Phantasm merch, including an autographed copy of True Indie: Life and Death in Filmmaking, a memoir by Phantasm creator Don Coscarelli
  • Chronicle Brewing Co. merch care package

The downloadable templates and full contest rules are available now, so don’t wait, boooy! The funeral is about to begin!
