Monthly Horror & Thriller Challenge for March.
You've been abducted. When they uncover your face in their compound, you're handed a knife, and instructed to hunt and kill the group of seven before daybreak. It's exactly 11 p.m. For each person you don't kill per hour, you will lose a finger, not a thumb, and if all seven are alive at dawn, then you will also lose your head. You've never been in a fight, let alone killed anyone. They want to be murdered by you, but they want you to earn your life at the same time. So much so, one of your fingers is cut off before they run. You hunt, or you die. How strong is self-preservation? Take us along. Winner is decided by likes, and will receive a crisp $10.00 -Go get them, or don't.

Vicarious Voyeur
Do you often envision your life through another set of eyes? We've all caught ourselves watching someone from a distance, even admiring them, but how far would you take it? This is your chance to become a peeping tom, a stalker from afar, a follower lurking in the shadows, or a secret admirer who envies someone’s life so much, that you’d do unpredictable things to keep watching. Perhaps you’ll write it in a journal, or a letter, or just share your observations with us of what about them that gets you up in the morning.
I’m interested in seeing your inner creepy come out and will reward the more disturbed higher, but keep it fictional and safe. All styles are welcome. The winner is decided by me. Remember to tag me, @ChrisSadhill, in the comments and I will read and comment on every piece. Happy writing.

Creepy Conversation Starters
I had a Halloween party this past year and filled a pumpkin pail with folded pieces of paper and each one had a creepy question or conversation starter. For example...If you were a serial killer, what "trophies" would you take from your victimes? If you were a cannibal, what would be your favorite body part to eat? What's your favorite murder show on TV? What kind of ghost would you be? What competition would you choose if you had to challenge the Devil and win back your soul? Post your own creepy question for the challenge and answer other Prosers questions in their comments. I'll award the best question AND the best answer to a question.

A Car Accident [Trigger Warning: Violence]
Describe a very brutal car accident. Leave no details out about the car and how it begins, to how it comes to its new state of being. If there's gore or anything about the driver you want to include, please include a trigger warning [TW] at the top of the post in the title, but other than that. It's a free for all. Let's see how good you can get at describing a car accident. Any type. Small fender bender or a large, horrific accident... Anything and it's good to also give a recount of the driver's experience and thoughts, whether they walk out or not.
