We have great prizes for readers next month. Here are three ways how you can win them

Trick or treat!

Well, that is what people usually say when it comes to Halloween - hand over some candy or you might find some nasty tricks played on you.

Not this October. The New Paper is just bringing you pure treats. No tricks.

Our surprises are going to bring screams of delight, not horror.

From tomorrow, you can start collecting special coupons in The New Paper and The New Paper on Sunday that will give readers great rewards - including over $30,000 worth of event tickets to be redeemed.

There are three ways to take part:

1 EVENT REDEMPTION

Want to get into the Hello Kitty Run? Or maybe explore a spooky haunted house? We have tickets you can redeem with the coupons.

HELLO KITTY RUN 2014

200 tickets

Redemption period: Oct 5

That's right. We have 200 of the prized tickets to enter the Hello Kitty Run 2014 happening Nov 1.

The 15,000 slots for the event sold out within 24 hours of the pre-registration launch earlier this month, so expect these to go fast.

To get your chance to run 5km alongside the Japanese icon, collect 20 coupons including one coupon that must be in a copy of TNP bought at the participating Buzz Pod you are redeeming from.

  • Redemption limited to two tickets per reader.
  • Buzz Pod redemption locations: Bukit Timah Plaza, Marina Bay Link Mall, Yishun Ring Road Block 803, Eunos MRT and Holland Village MRT

SENTOSA SPOOKTACULAR

100 tickets

Redemption period: Oct 6 to 12

What would October be without Halloween?

Fort Siloso on Sentosa will be completely transformed into a Spooktacular Village called Laddaland.

Each area is based on a horror movie, which includes international hits like Laddaland, Alone, Countdown, and upcoming chiller, The Swimmers.

If you have the stomach to brave the various "haunted" locations, this could make your Halloween go off with a blood-curdling scream.

  • Redemption limited to two tickets per reader.

Stars of the hit Korean game show will be at the Star Theatre on Nov 29 for Race Start Season 2 in Singapore. At the fan meeting, viewers will get to meet their favourite entertainers.

Kim Jong Kook, Haha, Song Ji Hyo, Ji Suk Jin and Lee Kwang Soo will be here for a two-hour show which will see a mix of comedy and songs.
