Friends and Heroes' Halloween alternative

Friends and Heroes Productions is offering Christian retailers and churches a Halloween resource based on its multi award-winning animated Bible series.

Released this month, the Bright Sparks Party Pack features characters from the "Friends and Heroes" series--which features both 2-D and 3-D animation, and follows the adventures of 14-year-olds Macky and Portia, weaving in stories from the Old and New Testaments.

"We created Friends and Heroes to bring Bible stories to a new generation of children so that they would have the light of the gospel in their lives," Executive Producer Alison Dorricott said. "The Bright Sparks Party Pack is a wonderful new addition to our other teaching resources."

With a Halloween alternative event in mind, the party pack comes with games, craft activities, quizzes, costume suggestions, food ideas, posters, flyers, invitations, tickets and an e-mail promotion. The pack, which retails for $25.99, also includes Friends and Heroes Episode 3, a CD-ROM with the leaders' and publicity material and a single-use, public-display license.

Following the end of its partnership with Tyndale House Publishers last year, the U.K.-based company launched Friends and Heroes LLC in Greenville, Texas, earlier this year, to distribute the 39-episode set in North America--which released in 2007 and is now available in 10 languages.
