Cleveland Akron, OH, September 9, 2026 — The Lorain Public Library System has announced its third annual Spooky Story Contest, an event designed to encourage creative writing and storytelling within the local community. The competition is open to two distinct groups: students currently in grades 6 through 12, and adults who reside in or attend school within Lorain County.

Participants are invited to submit their original spooky stories through an online platform. The contest aims to provide a creative outlet for individuals to craft tales that evoke a sense of mystery, suspense, or fright. The library system is encouraging all eligible residents to share their narrative talents.

The culmination of the Spooky Story Contest will be a Spooky Story Recital. During this event, the winning entries will be read aloud, giving authors the opportunity to share their work with an audience. Details regarding the date, time, and location for the recital, as well as the specific online submission portal and any entry deadlines, were not provided in the announcement.

Prizes will be awarded to the winning storytellers, though the nature or value of these prizes has not yet been detailed. This annual event has become a tradition for the Lorain Public Library System, fostering a connection with the community through literary engagement and seasonal themes. Further information regarding participation rules, submission guidelines, and the schedule for the recital is expected to be made available by the library system.
