Halloween 2018 - Day20, A "Best of Steem" Halloween Roundup
I have been off my Halloween game this week, so instead of anything I have done, I thought I would share with you the Halloween efforts of other Steemers.
Don't forget to enter my Halloween Contest, which pays out 20 SteemBasicIncome shares. You can enter multiple times, wth the last day to enter on the 29th!
Let's get to the show...
@ilhuna discusses Horror films that were inspired by real stories; some of the movies she regales us about are...Psycho, The Conjuring, and Child's Play. Check out her post for the stories behind the movies!
@britvr shares some well done Halloween pumpkins
@dirge revealed the winner of his Halloween Horror Writing Contest. Good to see some of the writers particpating in my contest spreading their wings over Steemit!
@silviabeneforti gives us her Recommended reading for Halloween time ; a discussion of Shirley Jackson's (from The Lottery fame) The haunting of Hill House.
@calluna scares us with The Harbringers, a story she writes with a discretionary reading warning ;>
@icondark gives us some atmosphere background with Fear the Light: A Dark and Creepy Playlist Perfect for Halloween, some tunes to which I am creeping out on at this very moment!
@gamersclassified gives us the rundown for These games are gearing up for another year of Halloween celebrations. One of the reasons I was hooked on World of Warcraft for so bloody long was the perfect balance of fun and immersion they put into their Halloween season.
@armageddonparty shares his experience (and pics!) working in New York's Frightworld...Clowning around, Working at a haunted house!

I love Halloween too!
I don't know if it could be considered for your contest, probaby not, but I've been doing a series called
Halloween Music from the 60s
and I have done 9 parts so far.
Part ONE was "I Put A Spell On You" by Screamin Jay Hawkins and CCR.

Then I covered Black Masses, Black Sabbath, Coven, Witches aand similar subjects.
Just posted my opinion of the creepiest song of All Time, by Alice Cooper!

I was looking through the #Halloween tag and found your post and thought I'd leave a relevant comment you and your readers might be interested in. If you think it's not relevant or don't appreciate me dropping links, let me know and I'll delete it!
No problem at all ;>
Both posts are in Halloween context, so cool.
I gotta say that the Screamin Jay version is much better than CCR's, IMO.
You might consider doing an index of your Halloween music posts so far, with a little comparison/commentary linking them. Add a link to the entry post in the post (since I derped on the fact we cant resteem after 7 days ;>)...
or just add a comment on the blog post you're entering from; either way, make your entry on the original contest page!
I'm lovin this Alice Cooper song!
I just posted my entry in the original call for entries post, but it's old and cluttered over there. Also the rules say to resteem the post but it is too old to be resteemable at this point so I'm dropping this here too and resteeming this post.
Fun Facts About Halloween: Jack O Lanterns, Pagans, and Cultural Appropriation
Enjoy!
just like my brain LOL
cool, got you entered!
