THEME - HORROR STORIES BASED ON THE TITLE

"THE EARTH BLEEDS AT NIGHT"

​We want you to get creative with this one and use the title for inspiration.

Looking for a suggestion? Take the theme 'earth' and write us an eco-horror, go full body horror and run with the 'bleeds', or use "night" and give us your nighttime stalkers, your dark dwelling monsters... Whatever you decide and however you spin the title, remember to give us your best!

We are NOT looking for stories that glorify sexual assault, rape, or bestiality.

How to submit? 

We will be using a Google Docs form when the submission window has opened.

What we are looking for: Unique, clever, and terrifying stories. Well-written relatable characters with flaws and real dialogue. Take us on a journey and scare the sh*t out of us while doing it. 

What we are not looking for: Erotica (some sex is fine, just not all of it), rape, and animal abuse (kill the dog, but don't f* it).
