A dark night in October......

Postby MystMist » Thu Oct 16, 2014 4:44 am

"A dark night in October......
.....you see that someone has made a big fire in the market-square:
"What's this? A fire in the market-square, is that really allowed?" you think to yourself.
You are curious so you approach cautiously.
As you approach you see shadows around the fire - they sway backwards and forwards.
You uncertainly take another few steps closer when one of the shadows turns to look at you.
The shadow’s eyes gleam and on its face a sharp toothed smile appears:
"A new face! How delicious." He says, licking its lips with a long tongue.
"Come sit down with us, this place is......."safe" so you really shouldn't go wandering, there is dangerous things out there in the darkness…"
You then hear horrible groans and explosions in the distance and when you look at the roads from the square you see shambling figures that don’t look very friendly.
So, you hesitantly sit down at the fire. When you look closer at the group around the fire you see some humans and other beings amongst the shadows.
Some are shivering and others are wounded. You move to sit down among the humans but before you do the sharp toothed shadow grabs you and gives you a flashlight.
"Everyone it is Ssstory-TIME!" he says, letting out a chuckle."

This is a writing contest for halloween and horror themed writing, that means long stories,short stories and poems can all be submitted her as a entry into the contest.
You may submit however many entries you want but there will only be one prize per person.
The point of this is to write yourself and show us your creativity.
So getting other people to write for you or copying a story from a book or internet is considered cheating.

Prices will be art from Dark Pillow -> http://arolilja.wordpress.com/
You can see her blog in the link
and headshots of this style and quality from another artist

When you have won please send a reference of what you want drawn original character or avatar.

Contest will end the 31st so i hope to have your entries in here by then.

One can be creative as long as one try.
I mean If you can't draw then write
If you can't write then cook
So on and so forth
I believe the meaning of life is to create ^^

I just noticed something, there is no post earnings here?
Isn't events forums meant to award more currency than normal to encourage people to participate and create their own threads?

Yeah, there's no post earning here because you posted it in the wrong forum- this one is meant for admin-run events, and we don't require as many feathers as you guys do. I left it temporarily because I wanted to see if we have a forum for something specific like this. Currently we have the Games Room, which is for user-run things, so I'll move it there for now. Also, naturally it wouldn't award more but you'd still get the 10 :Feather: for posting like normal. Hope this helps!
