We conclude the spooky season with the spookiest holyday! The story doesn't have to take place on Halloween night per se, but it does need to incorporate the holiday and its spirit in some way. You decide how gruesome and terrifying your tale will be! Just try not to scare us too much, please!

May the odds - and your creative energy - be ever in your favor!
