Pledge $250 to make this nightmare come alive, and you'll receive everything in the $100 tier, plus:

• Complimentary production of one of your written stories (up to 6,750 words in length) to audio by the CTFDN audio production team.

• Get complimentary access to an upcoming horror writing workshop operated by past CTFDN writing contest winner, published author, and freelance journalist Meagan J. Meehan (who also has a tale included in this anthology!) This 8-week course will allow you, under Meagan's guidance, to go from an initial concept to a finished, marketable story in just 8 weeks, with the class's tales being compiled into a book of their own and produced by CTFDN upon completion.

• In the event the 3rd stretch goal is reached, get your special limited edition hardcover and/or leather-bound copy of the Chilling Tales for Dark Nights treasury - containing all of the stories from the earlier 3 volumes plus at least 10 more, signed by CTFDN creator Craig Groshek and illustrator David Romero.

• In the event the 3rd stretch goal is reached, you'll get a digital download of the full audio book edition (complete with sound effects, music, and a full cast) of the Chilling Tales for Dark Nights treasury when it is complete, emailed to you directly by the project creators (please allow an additional 5-6 months for production and delivery).

• In the event the 3rd stretch goal is reached, if you're an author who is interested, move to the front of the submission queue to have one of your folklore-themed horror stories considered for the treasury edition (note: project creators will still decide which stories to include, and this prize simply ensures your entry is reviewed first, not that it is guaranteed to be included)
