Have a scary story of your own? Send it to us. We read every submission, and the best ones are published on QuietDread with your name or pen name.
What We Are Looking For
- Your own original story, never published anywhere else in this form.
- 500 to 5,000 words, in English, told in the first person.
- Stalkers, highway horror, night shifts, deep woods, small towns, cryptids, urban legends and the unexplained. Stories about our QuietDread Legends are welcome.
- No fan fiction of other people’s characters, no real crimes with real names, no graphic violence against children.
We may edit for length and spelling. We will email you before anything is published.
