October 31, 2026, 2-4 p.m. Wine and cheese party at the home of Fedora Amis.
What could be more apropos for mystery writers than telling ghost stories? Showcase your dark side with an original story or find flash fiction to read or just come to listen. Prizes for the scariest, the funniest, and a story so frightfully appalling that we have to stop before we all run away screaming. Max words per story – 500 (four minutes). We may even have time to mull over the role of fear in creating tension in a mystery.
Wear a costume if you dare. We have a prize for that, too.
Remember when monsters lived under the bed, ghosts hid in the closet, and storms raged outside?
Guess what?
They’re back.
