Honorable Mentions
Stacy Bennett | @Sbennettwrites
Danielle says: Another great under the radar tale for Halloween. I can feel her desperation about the antiques and I love how she gets the ex back in the end without him even knowing it.
Bill Engleson | @billmelaterplea
Danielle says: Another great twist to the end. I loved the descriptions and the mystery to it.
Sheilagh Lee | @SweetSheil
Danielle says: I love the twist to the end of this one, and those last lines are killers for plot twist. Perfect story for this month, and a perfect dose of revenge from beyond the grave.
I stepped across the threshold of the old house and in my mind I shivered. It was older and more decrepit then I remembered. I heard the front floorboards creep waitin as I had every Halloween night for Bobby to come and join me. Tonight Bobby answered my invitation.
Bobby came closer wielding a flashlight, I heard him gasp. I pulled my silk scarf closer to my head.
“You said you deserve to be paid and then you and your friends lured me, raped me and killed me,” I uttered as I reached in and grabbed Bobby’s still beating heart.
Bobby’s body was found by some children a few days later. The town talked about pulling the old house down but nothing has been done… yet. There have been mysteriously deaths in the old house, a rash of heart attacks the coroner claims. People are afraid of the house, but they need not be; there’s only one person left that need fear the Halloween house, all the rest of my murderers are dead. Happy Halloween!!
