Introducing the first ever PolterGeist Writing Contest
Calling all writers and wordsmiths—we are now accepting submissions for our first ever PolterGeist Writing Contest!
We’re looking for stories that give voice to ghostly echoes and make homes in eerie landscapes. Send us your haunted cartographies, your paranormal prose and your uncanny tales, from the strangeness of the everyday to the sublime.
How it works: Tell us a polterGeist-inspired story in 500 words or less; both fiction and nonfiction approaches are welcome.
Deadline: November 13, 2023 at 11:59PM PST.
Winning entries get cash prizes and publication in Geist, so pack your pen, paper and flashlight and start ghost hunting now!
For inspiration, check out some spooky Geist pieces of the past: “Ectoplasmic” by AnnMarie MacKinnon; “The Ghost of James Cawdor” by Bill MacDonald; “49 Days to the Afterlife” by Jocelyn Kuang; “Geist, defined” by Kristin Pfeffer-Korn.
