Stalker Farms 1st Annual Horror Short Contest
I work for a haunt attraction in Snohomish WA called "Stalker Farms". It is an immersive experience haunt with story lines and characters, so we are looking for stories, back stories, tall tales, feverish recollections, bad dreams haunting memories... Write a horror story that creates a tale of horror around one, two, or all of the characters described herein. We will link from our Facebook to your entries on Prose to get you more readers! These are short stories, we are looking for up to 500 words max. Our staff will pick a winner. If anyone lives in Western Washington then we will comp tickets to anyone that enters a submission and wants to come out. The winner gets $100. Good luck! Write a story about any or all of the following characters: Suzie - The golden child of the Slasher family. She is spoiled rotten to the core. Her demented giggles taunt her play mates. Over 30 years old but she still doesn’t look a day over eight. Chuck - A butcher that takes a lot of pride in his cuts. He is known for his barbecue, just don't mind pulling a few human hairs out of your teeth. Make sure you don't complain or you will find yourself unlucky enough to be served next. Eski - No bloody sacrifice is enough to appease the terrible craving for blood demanded by this horror, born of a thousand tortured soul's tormented screams.

Suzie

Wind rushing against the tight ebony curls utop my head. I sat on close by rock swinging my little feet back and forth holding Mr.Teddy in my lap. I enjoyed watching her but after two minutes of her just standing there contemplating her options it got boring fast. I would have left by now or scared the living piss out of her if it were not for the two sets of eyes watching from just beyond the tree line. I could sense that both of their auras were dark, although one of them was far darker that the others and From here I could see his bloodlust. They were slowly starting to creep up closer to the rear end of the car so they were out of the women’s line of sight. She was moving back to the drivers side door when they finally jumped her. The taller of the two sliced through her throat, while the other groteske one actually took a bite out of her side. She didn’t even have time to scream. The taller man threw her over his shoulder while the other licked up the blood from his lips. Though the bloodied one was a little disfigured he was oddly cute, despite the smeared blood on his chin and along his jaw line. I decided to let they see me, I mean these two were just too intriguing to let them slip away without a proper greeting. I wasn’t able to stop myself from giggling.

“Hi, whatcha up to?” I pressed on a smile and started to swing my feet again, using my little girl charm to entice them. Both of them looked toward me both with very different expression from the other. The taller male looked in confusion while the other one was excited. Before anyone could say anything else the groteske one tried to jump me and was startled when he passed right through me. “Sorry, that won’t work.” Turned to the one left now in front of me. I might be able to have a conversation with this one, the one behind me pushes his hand through me with an odd fascination.

“Hello, what’s your name sweetheart?” The taller asked as he looked at me with curiosity.

“Suzie, and you? Would you also explain why you took my kill?” He looked at me as if I couldn’t hurt a fly.

“Chuck. That one behind you is Eski.” He paused when Eski came to my front. I materialized my hand to pat his head. “You could come join us for the food, I make a good burger and Eski seems to like you.

“Alright, this place got boring a long time ago.” I looked at Chuck as I got up to follow him.

“Why are you here anyway.” Both Chuck and Eski looked at me questioningly.

“This is the spot I killed my mother,” Both of them smiled in wicked delight “I’ve been here for over thirty years”

“Well you’re with us now.”
