Welcome to Ryl and Mal's First Annual Halloween Writing Challenge! Ryl and Mal put their heads together and have come up with something a little different than the usual list of items challenge. Are you brave enough to get past the gremlins and try your hand at it?
The Challenge: Choose one of the following urban myths and rewrite it with a Bob-White spin. Will you put Dan into the story of Hookman? Portray Honey as the Woman in White? Does Trixie have a secret that Bloody Mary knows? Maybe Mart has an irrational fear of the number 40. Pick a Bob-White, any Bob-White, and write the story from their point of view. They can play any role, maybe one of them IS the Hookman, and has a tragic story to tell.
There's no deadline, no word requirement. A very thorough compilation of urban legends is here for your research! But you're not limited to these. Pick any urban legend you've heard!
And of course, Ryl and Mal wouldn't issue a challenge they couldn't complete themselves, so their offerings will start the Challenge off right...
