Built On Strange Ground is a non-fiction comic anthology of real cursed locations, haunted towns, eccentric neighbors and local lore.

Have you ever lived someplace odd? Is there a house on your block that everyone avoids? A place where mysterious disappearances keep happening? Have you walked in a forest where voices are sometimes heard from the trees? Does your neighbor receive letters in a language that no one has seen before? Is there a highway out of town that some cars never get off of? We want to hear your stories.

Personal experiences are best, but friend-of-a-friend stories or pieces of historical nonfiction are also welcome. We’re especially interested in stories about the strange and unknown, but they don’t necessarily need a paranormal element. We’re looking for any stories you have about weird locations and strange locals.

This is a non-fiction anthology, meaning we want stories based on real people, places and experiences. It’s all right if your submission is about something of dubious validity, like a local legend or rumor, but it should not be a work of fiction.

This anthology is a semi-sequel to Then It Was Dark, an anthology of personal paranormal experiences that is currently in its second print run.

Solo creators and writer-artist teams of all experience levels are welcome to submit pitches. Accepted stories will be paid $50 a page. If you are interested in contributing, send your pitches here.

The deadline for pitches is March 15th, 2017. You can submit more than one, but try to narrow it down to two or three at the most. We want to hear the stories you’re really interested in telling.

Safe travels, everyone.
