Spooky Story Contest!
Love Halloween? Dare to enter our Spooky Short Story Contest—if you’re brave enough! Summon your creepiest characters, twistiest plots, and most bone-chilling endings into a story no longer than three pages. Make sure it has a beginning, middle, and end… and enough fright to haunt our judges’ dreams.
