Judges' comments:

Step inside and you're instantly lost in a blazing autumn forest. Rows of grinning jack-o'-lantern trees close in from every side, their leaves spilling into a glowing path that leads straight to the pumpkin throne at the heart of the room. The candlelight, bubbling cauldrons and watchful gargoyles add just the right touch of menace, and the warm orange palette ties everything together into one cohesive, unforgettable scene. Atmospheric, immersive and beautifully detailed - congratulations, Frog!

2nd Place - Grey
"Grey's Lost Mausoleum"

Judges' comments:

From the iron gates at the entrance, a lantern-lined path draws you towards a skull-lit mausoleum that seems to be waiting just for you. The near-perfect symmetry gives the build a grand, almost ceremonial feel, while the tombstones, gnarled trees and drifting fog fill the graveyard grounds with quiet dread. Every corner rewards a closer look. A haunting and polished build - well done, Grey!

3rd Place - Mathias
"Haunted Passage"

Haunted Passage, Mathias's 3rd place Halloween room

Judges' comments:

This room is packed with things to discover. Pumpkin patches, bubbling cauldrons and creeping spiders surround a blood-red centrepiece, while a row of gargoyles stands guard over the moat and a candlelit crypt waits off to the side. The layout invites you to wander and explore, and the mix of graveyard, garden and gothic architecture tells a fun, spooky story. A lively and imaginative build - great work, Mathias!
