It's time to announce the winners of the Halloween event's gothic novel themed writing contest! This turned out better than I dared hope, all the contestants brought their A game, and it was a delight to read and judge.
If you missed the submissions the first time around, I really suggest you take a look.
The entries can be found here.

Without further ado, the winners
First Prize goes to.... Car'a'carn! For Death at Deogol Manor!
I am ready to crack this bad boy open. The plot you deigned to divulge is super delicious, and I definitely want to know what happens next! Care to share? I also really like the creativity and research that went into the names of places and people involved.
Congratulations, you win
The Stairs of Royalty CI
and
3k gold
Second Prize goes to.... Woodlandnymph! For... All 3 entries?
Honestly, I couldn't choose. You really got into the spirit of things with Lady Isabeth's Portrait of Tears, Brokeback Mountie was in a league of its own, and Help! I've Fallen in This Spooky Cemetery! made excellent, lighthearted use of the prompt image. In the end it was too painful to single one out. So I'm taking the easy way out.
Congratulations, you win
Exquisite Lair CI
and
1k gold
Third Prize goes to.... Shadami! For Raven Bluff's Spirit!
Spoopy! Sounds like the perfect set up for a supernatural themed gothic novel. Honestly I want to read this to find out if someone convinces the wraith to move on, both spiritually and emotionally. Because her husband sounds so not worth it.
Congratulations, you win
5k gold
But that's not all
I've decided everyone who entered is walking away with something. So those of you who didn't get into the top 3 are still getting...
1k gold!
woo!
