Contest Rules (MUST READ)
The Prompts
You may use any or all of these prompts to influence your work. It must be related to at least one of them.
Fanfiction Prompts:
1. A Halloween Party takes an unexpected dramatic turn. Things aren't so funny when you're no longer the host of your own party.
2. Ghosts are very real, and they want to be your friend. Unfortunately, that requires a rather permanent lifestyle change.
3. There's a killer on the loose and the gang has to figure out who it is and how to stop them. This means teaming up with an unlikely ally.
4. A character is forced to make a Faustian bargain with the Devil. It can be the real deal or a more metaphorical devil.
Fanart Prompts
1. Re-imagine a beloved character as a monster. Ghosts, demons, fiends, or perhaps a different kind of monster altogether.
2. Nothing hurts worse than having a loved one on the other side of the veil. And yet they still watch over us.
3. Sometimes a nightmare is what you make of it. A place can change drastically from the peace of daylight to the shroud to night.
4. There is no more scary place than the insides of our minds. A truly twisted person's brain can create a Hell all their own.
1. The fanwork you submit to the contest must be an original piece created based on the prompts above.
2. You may submit more than one entry, but it is not recommended. As each entry will appear in the voting separately, you could split your own vote.
3. You may vote for your own entry.
4. Fanfiction Word Limit: There is no word limit on entries, but remember that brevity is the soul of wit. Exceedingly long entries could turn off potential voters.
5. Fanart Medium Limit: There is no limit to the medium. Pencil, pens, paint, charcoal, cosplay, photography, all are welcome.
6. Legal Mumbo-Jumbo: All fanwork submitted is, of course, the property of their respective creators. The Lifestream.net takes no responsibility for content within nor holds any copyright to anything submitted within the contest.
7. Cheaters Be Warned: Creating dupe accounts is already a strict taboo on the forums, and using dupe accounts to give yourself more votes will be treated as especially heinous. Our staff knows all and sees all. Don't try it.

But I have found fun and creative outlets for my visual art abilities during Halloween (I love Halloween; the parties, the dancing, the socializing, horror movie TV programming, etc.). In the case of costumes, the wardrobe is my canvas. I am trying to submit my Cloud Strife costume from 2014 but when I post it states "Rate Limit Reached/Exceeded." Can someone help me? Thanks!
It looks super amazing Howl. <3
