A Halloween 2023 Contest Entry
I never wanted to go to the party, but Joe talked me into it, and what happened next... well, let me tell you the whole thing.
For Halloween: Writer Neal Nelson is thrown into madness, guilt, and regret when his 14-year-old lover, Nate, becomes terminally ill and takes his own life. Neal's doctor puts him on nerve medicine that might have the effect of causing illusions and sends him to a change of scene to coax him into finishing a novel and recovering. In Dragoon Hall, a historic house in the Forest of Dean, England, Neal finds legends and a new, possibly drug-induced, perspective on life and sexual fulfillment
Halloween 2018
It was a Halloween tradition for high school seniors to stay overnight in The Haunted Shack. This year something different was going to happen. Old curses and lifted wards combine to make this a night of horror for eight 18 yr-old high school Seniors.

A ghost story: It all started when I foolishly went through the wrong door. I could have been easily rectified my error by re-entering the building and locating the door I had originally used when I entered the building. But instead, I opted to find my way to my car by working my way round the outside of the building. A foolhardy decision given that it was the early hours of the morning and very dark. It was a decision that I was to regret.
