Become a Character in a Horror Story

Welcome to the 2nd Annual Halloween Short Story Contest

This year I am looking for 5 characters to be terrified by my new villain in, A Place to Call Home. Two Main Characters and Three Supporting Characters. The story follows a young couple as they move into their first home. They find an old mirror left by the old owners and set it aside to hang at a later time, unaware of the horror which is about to be unleashed in their new dream home.

How to enter:
1. Follow the @thecalmscribe on Twitter and/or Instagram.
2. Tweet or Gram why you would be a great character.
3. Tag: @thecalmscribe and use the hashtag: #ScareMe2018

Prize:
Character modelled after you in the story, A Place to Call Home
A signed copy of the story.
A certificate of inclusion.

Contest ends: October 30th.
Winners to be announced: October 31st
Story to be released in November.

Important Information:
Prize has no cash value. Prize consists of having a character modelled after you including name, characteristics, and mannerisms. Winner will receive a signed copy of the story and a certificate of inclusion. Winners must be available to complete a questionnaire in a timely manner. Winners have no claim to the story or any iterations thereof. Winners have no financial claim. Should a dispute arise, the character will be removed from the story and replaced with a non-contest character. Names will be chosen by double blind drawing. Winners agree to be bound by confidentiality.
