Thunderdome CCCLIV: S’moreDome

Find a stick that won’t burn up the second you put it near the fire, we have enough marshmallows for everyone. We’re telling Campfire Spooky Stories. Tell me about the spooky goings-on in this very forest. Make me uneasy to go back to my sleeping bag.

Even if the judges will be reading these stories, remember that this is first and foremost an oral genre. Avoid complicated characters, and focus on the unseen and the unknown.

666 words.

Signups due Friday at 11:59 pm US Central time. Signups accepted after that with toxx.

Stories due Sunday 11:59 US Central.

Normal rules about porn and fanfic and whatever apply.
