"In conjunction with the release of 'Pirates of the Caribbean III: At World's End' on May 25, 2007, Home-and-Bedroom.com is sponsoring a pirate-themed essay contest. Entrants will be eligible to win a Disney 'Pirates of The Caribbean: At The World's End' Twin Bed Comforter Set."

Oak Park, CA (PRWEB) -- Captain Jack Sparrow may be the summer's hottest box-office draw, but what's it really like inside his bedroom? Watch out for the skull and crossbones hanging from the ceiling. Be careful not to trip over the gold dubloons spilling out of the old chest by the captain's bed. The most awaited movie of the summer, "Pirates of the Caribbean III: At World's End" will hit theaters on May 25th. To celebrate the film's big-screen release, Home-and-Bedroom.com is sponsoring a pirate-themed essay contest. The best 100-word description of a pirate's bedroom the company receives between now and June 10, 2007 will be rewarded with a "dead man's chest" bounty: a Disney "Pirates of The Caribbean: At The World's End" Twin Bed Comforter and Sham set with a retail value of $100. Seafaring swashbucklers who would like to learn more about the contest can do so online at Home and Bedroom's Pirate Bedroom Contest Headquarters.

Home-and-Bedroom.com knew it wanted to do a tie-in promotion with the movie. That led to some creative brainstorming. "Beds and bedroom sets are our company's specialty, so we thought it would be fun to ask : What exactly does a Pirate's bedroom look like?" explains Ben Weissman, spokesperson for the online furniture retailer. Whether it's Captain Jack Sparrow, Barbosa or Davy Jones, they all have a certain "Pirate Style" to their quarters. We want to know what people imagine that would be like.

What hatched from that idea was the "What's It Like Inside a Pirate's Bedroom?" contest. The company is looking for the most original description entrants can concoct. Fans of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films should have no problem interior designing sleeping quarters for Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom and the rest of the big-screen buccaneer gang, but only the most inventive will take home the treasure chest. The winner will receive a Disney Pirates twin bed comforter set to makeover his or her very own pirate's bedroom.

If history is any indication, this year's "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" easily stands to become a blockbuster hit. According to MovieWeb.com's "All Time Top 1000 Grossing Movies," the original "Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl" ranks at number seven on its highest earners' list. And the second installment, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest," does its predecessor one better with a number six ranking. The two installments combined have grossed over $845,000,000 in the U.S. domestic market.
