Graveside Tales Halloween Contest

The witching season is upon us, and the book Harvest Hill: 31 Tales of Halloween Horror is about to reap the fruits of its wicked labors. Therefore it is time at long last to kick off the celebration proper with a prize giveaway! The treat up for grabs at the moment is one brand-spanking-new copy of the hell-hot anthology - plus they might throw in a bag of candy corn or a pocket-sized demon, you just never know.

The trick is to guess who wrote their lovely foreword. The first fiend to reckon correctly wins! There have already been a few guesses in some of the Harvest Hill threads at Graveside Tales, so make sure to check those (http://gravesidetales.com/forum/index.php?board=62.0), if you haven't recently, to mark incorrect names off your list and get closer to the secret identity of the powerful sorcerer who conjured up the creepy piece for them.

By the way, they know the names of the people who already have this information, so no letting the black cat out of the bag! In other words, this is where they say the disclaimer about people who are directly involved in production - e.g. Dale, Tony, Stephen, Mike, Douglas and their kindly blurb folks - not being eligible to win. They want to know who among y'all have Halloween prognostication abilities that are able to pierce the veil, so begin your scrying into the flames to see who is looking back at you, and then post your answer here: http://gravesidetales.com/forum/index.php?topic=1674.0.; The book will be available for purchase soon, so get on the (broom) stick now!

The end of the world has come and gone. The dead have risen, and they've won. No more rallying of the troops. No miracle cure or weapon. Just lots of dead people walking around. If the living dead won, what would the world be like? This collection of eighteen tales-including entries from David Wellington, Jack Ketchum, and Gary A. Braunbeck-take up the call to answer that question. People go to work. Have sex. Get drunk. Fall in love. Take revenge. Raise families. Watch TV. Laugh. Mourn. Murder. Pray. The world is dead, but life goes on.

AVAILABLE NOW: http://www.amazon.com/World-Dead-Kim-Paffenroth/dp/1934861251/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1253138227&sr=1-1
