Several of the podcasts that I listen to are starting their "horror stories" episodes, in honor of Halloween.
For them, only coming out a couple times a month (or longer periods), that is right around the corner. Of course, for Idol, that's still some time away - there will be a lot of loss and heartache between now and then. The bodies of writers, literally and figuratively, will be littering the floors as those remaining step over them on someone's path to victory and eternal glory!
More will be leaving us when the poll closes:

That doesn't mean though that we can't have our own "horror stories" day though.
I was going to ask about examples of "horrific" or "spooky" stuff that's happened to you - but I'm sure folks are saving those for entries. (or have already used them).
So how about "what is the scariest movie you've ever seen/book you've ever read"?

On that note, I missed out on telling you that friend of Idol, Champion from Season 8 and Gatekeeper Christopher Buehlman (who I've been friends of friends with since high school - and oh yeah, he's a really successful horror novelist. But whatever, he served as a Champion during Season 8. I think that's probably his biggest life accomplishment) recently debuted his screenwriting skills on an episode of Creepshow! Here's a link to a review:
