There are more places to flaunt your dressed-up pup this Halloween than the Tompkins Square dog parade.

An image of your boo-tiful pet in costume could appear on the street or in a subway station if you post it on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter with the hashtag #PawlloweenNYC.

LinkNYC and MTA On-the-Go kiosk screens will feature New Yorkers' best pet photos above ground and below through Halloween, which falls on Monday.

Hundreds of LinkNYC kiosks, which provide free Wi-Fi, are scattered through Manhattan, with additional units in The Bronx and Queens. A total of 155 On-the-Go kiosks, which display MTA service information, are situated in 31 subway stations in The Bronx, Manhattan, Queens and Brooklyn.

"No bones about it, we want to see your pet's paw-some Halloween costume this year!" reads a post about the campaign on the LinkNYC Instagram account. 

So far, the animals vying for digital billboard space include Alaskan klee kai dressed as teenage mutant ninja turtles, a corgi attired as Sherlock Holmes, and an eskimo dog channeling Wonder Woman.
