2008 Ghost Post Halloween Challenge

The Ghost Post Challenge
Halloween 2008

 

Back on September 19th, 2008 we announced our Ghost Post Challenge! Here’s what the particulars were….

Halloween’s comin’ up and we’re looking for a few good stories!

Write a Halloween-themed Dukes of Hazzard story and submit it by October 28th 2008, or become a ghost!

Here’s how it works. Announce your intentions over at the offical HNet Ghost Post Challenge thread that you’re going to write a Halloween story (or finish one if you’ve got one in the works) and have it in by midnight, October 28th, 2008 (US Pacific time. Although we have fans all around the world now so we’ll take into consideration time differences.)

Submit your stories to me at maryacltrn “at” yahoo.com. Please put Ghost Post Challenge in your subject line. Stories will be posted here at DOHFF.

If you announce you’re gonna write a story and then fail to make the deadline, you’ll become a ghost for a “spell.” Heh heh. Those who miss the deadline and become spookified will have to post at HNet in italics, and will also have a special avatar for the duration of their outta body experience. Their “ghostly” existence will last for two weeks.

We’re also thinking that they’ll be subject to “summoning”, and if invoked to respond on a particular thread or topic, that they’ll be obligated to “appear” and put a comment.

Or you can avoid this fate by completing a story and having it in by midnight of October 28th.

Like Brian pointed out in another thread, we’re not exactly looking for the slasher/hack ‘em up type stories but “spooky stuff, creepy stuff, or Halloween-themed shenanigans are fine. This could be one of those times where the ol’ dream sequence scenario comes in handy.”

So there you have it! The Ghost Post Challenge! Let’s all have a spook-tacular time!

And here are the ree-sults of our challenge!
