Halloween Contest

Our theme for Halloween this year will be Paranormal Encounters.
With the release of "Paranormal Activities 3" coming soon
We thought it would be fun to create our own paranormal experiences.

To include more of our members, we are accepting both prose and poems.
We will have a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners in each category.

You mission if you chose to accept it is to create your own encounter.
We are looking to be scared, so you will need to dig deep and
create something that brings goose bumps and makes us want
to curl up in a corner somewhere and hide.

So bring out all the skill and chill us, for this coming Halloween.

This contest starts Sept 23rd (The First Day of Autumn) and runs till October the 25th. Midnight EST.
We want time to go over the entries and announce the winners by Halloween.
