Introducing Our Autumn Fiction Award Winners

As I write this, in New York City two teams are playing in The World Series—AKA, “the fall classic.” But here at The Ghost Story, we’ve had our own fall classic since 2015, when we launched The Ghost Story Supernatural Fiction Award Competition for full-length short stories incorporating a supernatural theme or element. We’ve always announced and published our winner and two—occasionally three—honorable mentions on October 31. So here we are, on the eve of October 31, and here they are: three new chilling, thought-provoking stories for your reading pleasure. Please have a look.

And, if you’re a writer . . . our next supernatural story contest, The Screw Turn Flash Fiction Competition (for uncanny stories of 1,000 words or fewer) opens to submissions on December 1. Happy reading, happy writing.
