Ghost Story Contest – Olvera

The genre of horror has either made us cringe in the edge of our seats, cry as the hero or heroin is taken in the cold inhuman grasp, or just laugh seeing it as so comical and not at all eniticing.

The October 24 Ghost Story Contest was such a case, where contestants turned thier stories in to see if they could move an audience with thier captivating story was such a case. With a 750 word limit it will be decided by selected judges to see who gets the prize.

Although its past the deadline, says Deeann Fraser librarian of the Cerritos College Library we still haven’t taken down the poster.

She acknowledged that it isn’t her task to remove the expired posters in the display cases but that of Roger Ernest, who has also brought together the contest.

She says that the display cases are open for clubs or organizations for displaying their needs. A pamphlet for the information on displaying posters and other advertisements can be acquired at the Periodical desk in the Cerritos Library.

First prize winner gets $50 while second and third get $25 says David Fabish of the Liberal Arts Chair of English Department on being asked of the Ghost Story Contest.

The contestants who have taken part in the contest were John Luna, Jessie Sisneros, Sana Khalid, Helen Nambo, Daniel Acuna, Jorge Rodriguez, Enrique Gonzalez, Joshua Kaanana, and Aida Sandoval.

John Luna has taken part in these contests many times before says Fraser, he was reported to have entered many of his works into this contest as well.

The winners will be announced at 11 a.m. on December 11, to give the winners time to purchase presents for the upcoming holidays.The winners of the Ghost Story Contest will be announced next Thursday at the Liberal Arts Deivision Meeting.
