holyyyyyyyyyyyy. congrats on 700!
if i can even find time, or the brain power, to research a house… i will… no promises unfortunately…

congrats and I know a haunted library…. with real stories…. ;) maybe I shall embellish one?

Congrats.. wow you’re very prolific.. Haunted houses have always fascinated me, near where I live is a resort town famouse for victorian haunted houses,Inns and restuarants.

Congrats on 700! I’m gonna have to find an angle on this challenge. Off to the research labs!

Congrats on 700. I’m afraid i don’t have time to enter this challenge, but it’s a good one.

Congrats on the 700… I would kind of like to write about a personal experience I had at an old hotel I used to work at…Is that o.k.?

So many things to celebrate! Congrats on 700 Ficlets, and happy birthday! (Jenson and I have one this month too.) Teen Read week is Oct 12- 18. Columbus Day… AND … It is National Book Month! Then there is that little thing to top it off at the end called Halloween. ;D If only all months could pack such a punch!
.
Great challenge by the way, so many hauntings.. So very many. Going to be a good one. I just have to choose which to write about. ;)

@ Chaka, yes, ma’am! I would love to read personal accounts of ghost sightings. And by the way, is your icon from a Klimt painting? I adore Klimt!
@ Jen, happy early birthday to you and Jenson!
@ Everyone else, thanks, and I can’t wait to read your entries! :-)

Congrats on the HUGE milestone, Ana… that’s awesome..
Now i’ll put my thinking cap on so that i can enter this more excellent challenge.

Wow. 700! That’s flippin’ amazing! Congratulamadations! And, although I’ve never been a good writer of horror, I may have to try this!

I echo Oreos. So I guess it is possible to hit 700, huh? I may have to try this one, although my scary/horror writing talent is right next door to Diddly-Squat

Yes it is a Klimt you smart cookie! I shall enter soon!

Why am I not surprised you’ve chosen to issue a challenge that involves giving us homework? And wow, 700, huh? You’ve got me beat for number of ficlets written, and by a long shot.

Heh, you know me – one a schoolteacher, always a schoolteacher.

Heh, you know me – once a schoolteacher, always a schoolteacher.

I have entered the challenge! I new I’d found a haunted house right up my alley.

interesting how we have yet to enter with a haunted HOUSE , :P

okay, well, tbs is the closest.

LOL , still both entries are great and they contain actual documented hauntings, so they meet the challenge.

MUAHAHAHA this is my kinda challenge. My 7th grade research report was on assorted haunted houses in the US. Great challenge!

WOAH , 700? That rocks! Way to go Ana. I’m compelled to enter this challenge, and I’m wondering—will you GRADE these? LOL And if so may I send you some delightful New England apples (ahem, for an A, cough).

The Isles of Shoals, just off the coast of N.H., has a history of murder on Smuttynose island. Since it’s nearby me I’ll have to do something with that…

LOL @ Tad Winslow. Yeah, give me an apple and you’ll get an “A.” You know, in my 6 years of teaching, I have not once gotten an apple? Hmph.

And I look forward to hearing more about Smuttynose Island. (Is that island’s name real?!)

yeah, real name. Almost too cute of a name according to what happened there. I can’t believe you’ve never once recieved an apple, shame on those kids! There must be less attempts to manipulate the teacher in the classroom these days. not at all a bad thing.

Um, actually, the manipulation’s still there. Just in less tasty, apple-shaped forms. ;)

I revised my story, cuz I wasn’t thrilled, little changes, but I think it’s a little better. My half sister lives in the tampa bay area, are you nearby? Cuz if so I just might have to say…GO RED SOX ! he he.

well it took me a while, but i finally entered your fun challenge… i had enormous pleasure grossing out Elsha so far !! :)

Great challenge Ana… and congrats on the HUGE milestone, MY QUEEN ! bows low

Nope, Tad, I’m closer to Miami.
And thanks, Alro! LOL . :D

Congratulations on the whopping milestone of seven hundred Ficlets! :D The first thing I noticed when I finally managed to log into Ficlets (and on a secondary account, too!) was your Haunted House Challenge. I couldn’t resist, of course.
.
But…I kind of breached a rule. I’ve got two Ficlets. ^^; I hope you like it, anyway. : )

congrats, i hope you kept up your comments ratio as well ;-)

It will be hard, since I had to start a new account!

Congrats on 700 and on being featured!

Thank you! :-)

Hey, congrats on 700+! This isn’t about ur ficlet… I just wanted to recommend an author. If you like fantasy stuff (eg. J.K. Rowling, J.R.R. Tolkien, Stephenie Meyer) you might want to check out Tamora Peirce. She’s one of my favorites!

Is there a limit to how ficletty we can be?

No, you are limitless. Keep Ficletting.

Can you use a TV show?

Go for it. Bonus points if said TV show focuses on a documented haunted house (like “Ghost Hunters,” etc.).

I finally got around to entering! And congrats on being featured!

Congrats, Ana.

I needed to vent some creativity and your challenge was just the thing. Thanks.

Congrats on 700 ficlets, Anna! :D

Thanks for all who entered and for all the kind comments! :-)
