1. How to Enter: Beginning at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time (“ET”) on October 1, 2020 until 9:00 p.m. ET on October 22, 2020 (the “Promotion Period”), you may enter the Ghostober Social Giveaway (the “Promotion”). Incorrect and incomplete entries are void. The Promotion Period consists of four (4) separate and individual Entry Periods (each an “Entry Period” and collectively the “Entry Periods”). All entries must be received by the end time and date (detailed below) of each respective Entry Period to be eligible for the applicable prize drawing. These official rules are also available on the Travel Channel website (www.travelchannel.com/ghostobergiveaway) (the “Website”).

To enter you will need to sign into your Twitter account (“Twitter Account”) or, if you are not already a member, become a member of Twitter.com and sign into your Twitter Account. Creating a Twitter Account is free. By submitting your information and creating a Twitter Account, you will be required to agree to the Twitter terms of service and privacy policy. After you have a Twitter Account, to enter the Promotion, submit your entry during an Entry Period by logging into your Twitter Account and retweeting the post from @TravelChannel that mentions this Promotion, along with the following hashtags: “#ghostobergiveaway” and “#sweepstakes”.

If your Twitter Account is set to “private”, your tweet may not be visible to Sponsor and, therefore, will not be received by Sponsor, resulting in your failure to enter the Promotion. Sponsor may not receive entries that fail to strictly follow the posting instructions set forth in these Official Rules and Sponsor is not responsible for failure to see or receive an entry. Sponsor, at its sole discretion, may accept a technically incorrect unique term. Messages not received by Sponsor will not be entered into the Promotion.

During the Promotion Period, there is a limit of one (1) entry per eligible person, per Entry Period. If multiple entries are received in violation of the preceding sentence, only the first entry will be accepted and additional entries will be disqualified. Multiple participants are not permitted to share the same email address or social media accounts. Any attempt by you to obtain more than one (1) entry per Entry Period by using multiple/different email addresses, Twitter Accounts, identities, registrations or logins, or any other methods may void your entries and you may be disqualified from the Promotion. Any use of robotic, repetitive, automatic, programmed or similar entry methods or agents (including, but not limited to, sweepstakes entry services) will void all entries by you. In the event of a dispute as to any online entry, the authorized account holder of the email address used to enter will be deemed to be the entrant. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address. Potential winners may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holders.

MOBILE DISCLOSURE: If you opt to use your wireless mobile device in connection with the Promotion, depending on your phone’s capabilities, standard text messaging rates or data charges may apply according to the terms and conditions of your service agreement with your wireless carrier.
