Ghost Stories
Closing Date: Open All Year Round
For Prizes see website.
Ghost Stories - we've all heard them and
we've all been scared by them at one time
or another. They can be terribly scary or simply funny,
but either way they have been an attention-grabbing
form of storytelling for centuries and leave people
wondering whether what they've heard is fact or
fiction!
