Pigs-in-a-blanket, cocktail wieners, kilted sausages: Hot dogs can be very popular at a party. So when Party City's agency of record Zimmerman came up with the idea of an online haunted house populated entirely by animated hot dogs in costume-Halloweenies-to promote Party City's 2009 Halloween costumes, ClickFire Media and partner brand Click 3X couldn't resist. The resulting website brings together 3D animated characters, Facebook Connect, interactivity, viral video, and a link to buy the real costumes from Party City. The two companies worked in constant collaboration.

Not terrible, good idea, but some of the animations lag, and you're right, it is kind of boring.

Reminded me of it as well. This one has cool animations and it could get very cool but it seemed boring and useless. I expected something funnier.
