A Different Kind of Fear

The Existing are hosting their first ever contest!

A Different Kind of Fear.

Halloween is approaching just around the corner. Freaks are embracing this time of year to commit some of the more horrifying things a man, vampire, or werewolf can do.

We want your scariest, goriest, and most Halloweenish Twilight One Shots. The story doesn't have to necessarily be on, or around Halloween. Be creative. Be horrifying. Be evil.

Rules:

1. Pairings: Any, so long as they are from Twilight. If you're going to do a cross-over, let us know first.

2. Slash is encouraged.

3. Length must be 2000+ words. No max.

4. Lemons aren't a must, but will be accepted.

5. Collaborations are welcome and encouraged.

6. You must be old enough to read rated R. It's a horror contest, meaning nightmares.

7. Entry must be beta'd. Please leave the FFn name, or Twitter name of your beta.

8. We do not accept bestiality, or pedophilia.

9. This contest is anonymous, meaning you're not allowed to tell your friends or stranger's which fic is yours.

10. You cannot post the story under your FFn account until winners have been announced.

11. Please mark where the rated R begins so readers are warned.

We reserve the right to deny any fic based on the above rules. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Dates:
Starting August 31st, submissions will be accepted until October 31st. Voting begins November 1st until November 10th. Winners will be announced on November the 13th.
