April Monthly Microhorror Contest: Unleash Your Chills!
Writers, horror lovers, and dark dreamers—this is your time to shine… or shudder.
This month’s 500-word microhorror challenge is here, inspired by a single chilling image. A foggy forest, twisted trees stretching like skeletal fingers, a decrepit sign that reads “Abandon All Hope.” But in the depths of the murk, whispers echo and shadows stir. What lurks among the trees, and what darkness has claimed this place? That’s for you to decide.
🔪 The Challenge:
Write a 500-word horror story based on the image.
Post it here in the forum.
Read and vote for your favorite entries!
📖 The Prize: The winning story will be featured in April’s edition of Whispers from Beyond! This is your chance to have your words immortalized in the eerie world of Dark Holme Publishing.
🕛 Deadline: Submit your story by April 25th—that’s when voting closes.
So, who’s ready to embrace the darkness? Let your imagination run wild, and let the nightmares flow. We can't wait to read what haunts your mind…
Post your stories below, and may the most chilling tale win. 💀
