Time for spooky stories

The Town Crier is resurrecting its spooky stories contest with winning entries to be published in the Crier’s Halloween issue, Oct. 27.

The contest is open to all ages. Entries should be no more than 400 words and avoid the graphic descriptions associated with bad horror movies. The accents here should be on mystery and suspense.

Send entries to editor Bruce Barton at [email protected] or mail to 138 Main St., Los Altos 94022. Deadline to enter is Friday.
