With All Soul’s Day just around the corner, the training and management subsidiary of ABSCBN Corporatio­n, Star Magic, found it timely to mount at Resorts World Manila a Halloween party dubbed “Black Magic” participat­ed in by their artists.

Dimples Romana bagged the “WTF” (Wow That’s Fantastic) Costume Award. She came as Maleficent, the villain character in “Sleeping Beauty.” The actress wore huge dark angel wings, headpiece with horns, and she carried a Maleficent staff.

Love teams also took home awards.

Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla as KathNiel was declared Best in Costume. She did her impression of sultry DC Comics villain Poison Ivy while he wore a full human eyehead mask.
