1. In JE #19/Left and Right, write your RD of your Scary Story.

2. Please include the following words in your story, and highlight or underline them as you use them:
  • Lambycat
  • gossamer (shimmery and delicate, like a spider web)

  • darkness
  • candy (or clown)
  • vampire

  • blood 
  • monster
3. Please avoid having guns or other weapons in your story.

4. Your story should be at least 250 words long (or more!).

5. Your story can just be plain old Halloween scary, or you can make it more like a Twilight Zone episode and include some elements of science-fiction.

  • Humans’ and Aliens’ reactions to each other
  • The Afterlife/Zombies, etc.
  • Dreams/Nightmares
  • Humans trying to live on other planets
  • Inanimate objects coming to life
