Short Story Contest: A Haunted Place

It might be a little early for Halloween for most people, but it’s never too early for some creepy stories around here! We have a brand new contest with a great prize: A $20 Amazon Gift Card! So what do you have to do to enter?

First, it must be about a haunted place. It could be a building, a forest, a boat… whatever you choose. Somehow, the following photo must be mentioned in the story:

So, this doesn’t mean this building has to be the main focus of the story, but it needs to be mentioned somehow.

And here are the rules…

  • Word limit 1000-2000 words
  • No pornographic or hateful work.
  • Please pay the entry fee of $2. You may submit a payment to cristalle.deleon@gmail.com. Be sure to include your name and title of your story so we can match your entry with the fee!
  • Do NOT email your entry! We do not accept entries in the comments, either.
  • You may submit more than one entry, but you must pay the $2 entry fee per story.
  • Do not send previously written/published works. (Yes, that includes self-published. The point of this is to elicit a fresh story from this particular prompt.)
  • Include your website if you wish. If you win, we will contact you for further promotional information.
  • Deadline September 1, 2018, 11:59 PM Central Time (USA)
