eee just performed the intro to my haunted house story "Rapunzel House" (forthcoming with The Rumpus) & I think it went really well! This story is so close to my heart, in no small part because my current home inspired it.
can't wait to share the full story in a couple days when it comes out on Halloween!
for now, enjoying some other awesome spooky stories (all available for free online!):
