Are you the queen of screams? If yes, you should consider entering the $50,000 Miss Horror Fest 2007 contest. The [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pretzel-crust-island)-hosted competition asks users to upload 90 second clips depicting why they should become this year's Horrorfest spokeswoman. Hey, if Paris landed the role in [House of Wax](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haunted-house-of-fryght), surely you've got what it takes too!

Perusing submissions is a great way to get yourself psyched for [Halloween](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldi-and-elladoesfx).

**Implications** - In fact, viewers of YouTube actually have the opportunity to influence who is selected for the Miss Horrorfest contest. With that being said, I know I'm going to be checking out the submissions on YouTube!
