Eerie Books is not just a brick and mortar retailer. We also operate a horror forum. Today we announced a horror forum signatures contest, and I wanted to make sure that I got the word out as best I could. That means posting about it here on the blog as well as posting about it in the forum. You can read about the rules of the contest at the link, but I wanted to share some of the details about the prizes here.

First prize in the contest is $100, to be paid via PayPal. There’s only so much description I can write about a $100 cash prize. You can spend it on whatever you want. The only catch is that you have to win the contest, and you have to have a PayPal account in order to win.

Second prize in the contest is a copy of Fantasy Flight’s Call of Cthulhu Card Game. This game is considered a “living card game” by Fantasy Flight, but basically, it’s a collectible card game along the same lines as Magic: The Gathering. I even felt like the gameplay was pretty similar to MTG. The core set retails for $39.95, and it contains everything you need to get started playing, including the cards and the oh-so-cool Cthulhu figurines.

Third prize in the contest is a copy of the book, John Dies at the End by David Wong. This novel is a dark comedy and horror book all rolled into one. The main characters, John and Dave, are slackers who become exposed to a hidden world after taking a mysterious drug called “soy sauce.” It’s full of demons and conspiracy stuff, and it’s an excellent read.

So if you want a chance at any of the three prizes, just follow the instructions posted in the thread at HorrorForum.com. If you don’t already have a membership on the forum, please do sign up for one and start participating in the discussions there. We look forward to having you as part of the community. The contest ends June 30 at midnight.
