"Got any ghosts?"

As this 1940 poster from the Library of Congress Works Projects Administration says, October is a good time to read! We want to read your scary stories!


Owners of old houses often get asked that question -- especially this time of year.

And judging from some of the posts to our bulletin boards, the question hits home.

Russell writes of a ghostly experience in Brunswick, Maryland. Nina shares a tidbit about contractors who refused to come back to what they were convinced was a haunted house.

But inept contractors can be just as scary (maybe even more frightening) than ghosts. Just read Nancy's story on our home page.

We're inviting our readers to share their scary stories, both preternatural and earthly.

On October 31, our home page will feature the best ghost story and the most compelling non-ghost story sent in by our readers.

Send your stories to editorial@oldhouseweb.com. Subject: Scary stories. And feel free to post your stories to the bulletin boards in the meantime.
