The Winner will be selected by me...this year is completely subjective
However, the more comments and enthusiasm your entry generates, the more I will look favorably at your entry
The Prize is 20 shares of SteemBasicIncome

I have been very happy with the SteemBasicIncome shares I have received, and would like to spread that fortune around a little more
Me and Halloween
I have run Halloween contests for two years now. Halloween is my favorite holiday. Sadly, there wasn't much interest in my weekly contests last year, so I am trying a different format this year.
You can check out the index for how I ran these contests, what other people have submitted, ideas on entries, what I have liked in the past, and my own Halloween writings ;>
I'm not having a party, this year, but there are cats and rats like this at Walgreens, and I think I will be doing something like this for the trick-or-treaters...maybe make them take the candy out of the rat's mouth? LOL

Halloween is not really my thing as it didn't even exist in my country when I was a kid, but I felt in the mood for a little horror story, so I'm just gonna dump it on you... and @calluna, of course, because why not?
Have fun!
I hope you meant THIS story

you forgot to link it ;>
thanks for the submission!
Yep, sorry about that... in my defense, it was quite late at night!
you are docked 15,000 Imaginary Contest Points...which have no value in the completely subjectivefinal judgement ;>
Halloween is an American adaption (IMPROVEMENT I say ;>) of a mainly Celtic tradition; but since it does conform to a fairly basic human impulse( the fascination with our final destination), it has started to take root around the world.
Been long I participated in a good contest. Expect my fiction tale
looking forward to it! It's not really due until the end of the month (the 29th), but the earlier you get it in, the more enthusiasm you can crank up from your readers
