Of Ghouls and Ghosts: The 1st Annual Halloween Scareathon

As much as this sounds intriguing. I am not sure if scary ghost stories are up my ally. Maybe scary-humor could work but I don't know if I could do scary ghost w/o it feeling cliché or corny.

Ignore that second statement. I was in a rush to type. I'll see what I can come up with.

I'm fairly certain most people are gonna expect at least some gore. I don't see a problem with it. However, if you plan on going overboard, then make sure you put a warning tag in the title or OP.

Something like this would be fine: *Gore*

That way, people will know to expect a lot.

Can we also do stories that are more like thrillers/suspense instead of straight up horror?

Of course. Be my guest.

Frankly I struggle to take interest in anything based on a period aftet early medieval, like the 12th century or so. But go ahead and do whichever strikes your fancy, I can get into it if the concept is interesting. 

Well, I'm trying to keep the time period more ambiguous anyway, since I think that trying to accurately portray a certain time because I specified it would just take away from the story, which is the real focus. So it probably won't feel as advanced as whatever rough time period I choose, since I won't be paying attention to those kinds of details. I do think, now that I've finished my outline, that the story lends itself more to medieval through 17th century time periods

Some of my favorite horror movies are set in the 18th century, so the older one.

Cosmic Horror is best horror.
