2022 WHS
Spooky Short Story Contest
We have an excellent collection of spooky stories, perfect for reading over Halloween! The stories range from creepy dolls, a murder mystery, zombies, an Egyptian thriller, a little old lady, zombies to an updated take on Frankenstein. We had multiple heated discussions and voting with 6 faculty members. Every entry had no names attached to maintain fairness in judging. Everyone did a great job but the final tie breaker resulted in a win for Harper Stumb's "Charon's Scales". Enjoy reading the stories below.
