Okay I figured I'd issue a Halloween challenge for everyone who is interested. There are 13 prompts. I was going to release them one at a time leading up to Halloween but my school schedule would make that difficult; so instead what I will do is release them all now.
There is a banner for each prompt and there will be a final banner for those who manage every prompt.
The rules:
-There is no word count—make them as long or as short as you wish.
-Any rating is allowed.
-The prompts do not have to interconnect and can be done in any order you prefer.
-You can incorporate these prompts into an existing collection.
-If you are more of an artist than a writer, feel free to draw the prompts and claim the banners that way
-You do not have to do every prompt, but for those that do there will be a final banner.
-The challenge ends on Halloween.
Bonus points for darker stories.
The Prompts:
- Apple Bobbing

The Banners:
For those curious, most of the images for the banners are from Wikipedia; and when possible I chose Japanese art. The ones I did not get from Wikipedia are from Google image or Inuyasha screencaps.
