She got a chain letter
Hahahahahahahaha... I told you it was corny :)
Corny is great!
Any other takers here?
What do you get when you cross a vampire and a snowman?
Frostbite...
Do zombies eat popcorn with their fingers?
No, they eat the fingers separately...
Why do you always see ghouls with demons?
Because demons are a ghoul's best friend!

Halloween's just around the corner and I am looking for people who want to get silly and creative here who would join with me in writing a Halloween story as part of this thread. Any takers? I need to know if there's at least a few people who would be willing to participate before I begin. Thank you! :)
I have been there many times Wonder, yes I have heard many things first hand concerning strange things that have happened and supposedly still do. One is that there is a satanic circle in the concrete in the basement. The old owners try to deny much of the happenings but will say that "things move without anyone being near them, I have seen it happen." The place has great burgers.:eek:Quote:

For the story, you will need a gimmick. When I taught creative writing, I wrote the first sentence. The next writer wrote only one sentence. And so on. There are many variations on this such as using the alphabet somehow.
Hey, you must be sleep-walking. You're still supposed to be over on the Imrove thread! I was going to use this as part of your training in improvisation. The one-line thing is exactly what I had in mind. There are just a couple of guidelines that I wanted people to follow.Quote:

State your guidelines please.
I will when we have at least one more taker.Quote:

I was also hoping that this would be a way to get certain you-know-whos to think about something different for a change rather than the same old, same old...
Yes, I understand.
Let's begin. Start a new thread. First explain, then in a second post begin the story with one sentence. Please commence.
Maybe even have several story threads going--silly, spooky, bloody, etc.
Okay, I will. But, I did want one to be a part of this thread also. It could work. Let me check out your other response to our "Improv" that we have going though.Quote:

Cool, firm! Glad that you latched onto this! It will be coming!Quote:

My next message will be the post on this thread to start the story. Let's make this one a silly Halloween story. Not so much blood and guts or scary, but just silly. Might involve a ghost or two, or even a joke. Okay?
Get on with it, man! I have to go to bed.
Hey, everyone! As part of this thread, please feel free to add to this story that I'm going to start. Here are the only things that I am asking you to do in order to try to ensure that it works.
1. Please copy and paste what the previous poster has written in addition to what has already been written before and paste it all into your post. I just would like to make the story continuous in case someone comes along with another response to my original question that I asked on this thread that isn't part of the story.
2. Please only write one sentence or two, at the max, to add to the story.
Here is the beginning of the story. Let's see how it goes! :D
A SILLY HALLOWEEN STORY
It was late at night one Halloween, and the three of us kids were trick-or-treating around our neighborhood. All three of us were in the 4th grade at the school we attended together.

It was late at night one Halloween, and the three of us kids were trick-or-treating around our neighborhood. All three of us were in the 4th grade at the school we attended together. We had been put to bed already, but it was Halloween, after all, so me and Joey and Stevie snuck out of our houses and met at the corner of Fifth and Norton and put our heads together as to what we wanted to do, especially since we weren't real fond of our gym teacher, Mr. Brock, who lived just a block away from where we were standing at that very moment.

"Hey!" said Joey. "Why don't we play a trick on Mr. Brock!" "Maybe we could play "ding-dong-ditch-it on him!"
"Stevie though, thought that he had a better idea. "Since it's Halloween, why don't we do something to really try to scare him?"

"Naw," I said. I have the most perfect idea of all, and you're gonna die laughing when you hear it!"

Joey thought that would be a good idea, because Mr. Brock would be surprised by the caramel onions because he would have thought that they were really some sort of sweet delight! However, Stevie had a different idea and said, "Let's make some caramel onions and we can give them to Mr.Brock"
Hey guys! I was in the haunted house again last night! Check out my make up this time! XD I look so much worse!! Oh oh oh and best scare of the night!!
My boyfriend scared the out of three guys with the giant spider right before my room! They were so scared they ran right past me and made it through the rest of the house in like 10 seconds!

Hmm, Stringer. It wasn't at Resurrection Cemetery, was it? Or at the Country House in Clarendon Hills? Or at Queen of Heaven?
Ok Stringer! It sounds rather ominous!! I may wait until light of day to read! LOL :p I will look forward to your story. Until later then! Enjoy the candy!! ;)Quote:
