The Fine Arts Council of Trumbull County is having a contest for ghost-story writers for the annual Ghost Walk Halloween event Oct. 16, 17, 23 and 24.

Ghostwalk features true stories from Trumbull County’s history, performed by actors who are stationed along the tour in Warren.

Persons interested in writing stories for the Ghost Walk, or participating in it as a crew member, are asked to come to a meeting from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday at the FACT office, 170 N. Park Ave.

Discussion will include story ideas, historical research, pointers on writing a performance piece, and all the information you will need to submit a story. The writers of the stories that are chosen will receive a $50 gift card, and their name and story title will be recognized at the last station of the Ghost Walk tour.

All stories must be submitted by Aug. 7. For information, contact Barbara Root at barootski@aol.com or 330-718-3759, or William Mulane at info@trumbullarts.org.
