I have always been interested in writing haunted house stories, but it seems that everything I think up is totally cliche.
I’m not asking for ideas here, I’d just like to know how I can go about making a haunted house story non-cliche. I am mostly inspired with The Shining and The Amityville horror, so stories that are a little more on the psychological side.
Thanx!
Just live in two houses I lived in. One in Milwaukee with my buddy’s dead mother, and the other in a 100 y/o farmhouse.
This is the music video by Limahl for the movie Neverending Story.

I am a grade 8 student and need to modernize the story of snow white and the seven dwarfs. I want to do the story on somone who is emo/scene as snow white and the make the dwarfs seven people out of other middle/high school groups or seven out casts. If you can kinda get the idea of what im going for can you please leave me some ideas. Ushally I can write just like that but i have written story after story this year and have ran out of ideas and what to say. Thanks guys!
Snow white and the seven dwarfs…hmmm Snow "White" could be doing the white stuff as in crack lol and you can have the dwarfs after weird things like dopey could literally be on dope, and the witch is really a law enforcer who tries to get her to stop her addiction by taking her to rehab, luring her away with a red apple, the prince can be the guy who helps her through her depression and addiction and helps her live happily ever drug free……. hahaha hope that helps or at least gets you thinking about new ideas (don’t judge me I tried) lol
My partner and i are condsidering building a second story onto an exsisting house. This is my parents house, and we can’t afford to buy land and build so are considering building onto there house and living on the 2nd story? Any ideas or suggestions?
You will need to get some advice from an Architect. The answer to your question will depend on the local government requirements for your area, the capacity of the existing home to carry the additional loads, the planning feasability, your budget, the impact of the proposal on the adjoining properties, and so on.
Archicentre Limited ( www.archicentre.com.au) which is wholly owned by the Royal Australian Institute of Architects will for a nominal fee, send out an architect to prepare a preliminary design report for that property.
I think it will be money worth spending whatever the outcome, as you will be in a better position by reason of the report, to persue the matter further or make other plans for your future home. Perhaps there is an alternative development opportunity on the site which you have not considered, and an archtiect is in a better position to advise you.
Your idea might be a good one…. and certainly any strategy which reduces urban sprawl and optimises the sharing of resources with family members should be encouraged in principal.
Good luck
Okay so I want to write a story that is one story but is told separately by 3 different characters that have three points of view. One of them has to be what really happened. It can be a high school/drama/relationship sort of thing. Please brainstorm, I’d greatly appreciate it!
I was thinking of doing this too. Write a story about 3 high school drama queens who start off as best friends. But eventually, as they all go their own paths and turn on each other for friends, revenge, boys etc., they start to hate eachother. In the end, you decide: do they make up or continue to hate eachother?
this would be interesting from 3 views- make two girls tell totally different stories and make one girl tell the truth.
Stories like the movie City Lights by Charlie Chaplin count as well. How far back does the cliche go? I know the Spanish book Marianela was written in 1878; was that the first story to do it?
i’n ugly

I have read about 20 different stories about Draco,and i would like to know what is the most famous or more widely known story about it.
Thanks!
The.story of Orion says that he was a hunter and a companion to Artemis. One story says Orion was such a great hunter that Gaia feared that he would kill all the beasts of the Earth if not left unchecked and sent a scorpion to kill him. So you have Orion, Scorpio and Serius all up there together.
Another story says Orion was seduced by Selene, the Goddess of the Moon. Furious that Orion had betrayed his chastity, Artemis sent a scorpion to kill him and subsequently cursed Selene that she would fall in love with whatever mortal she saw. Selene then put Orion, his dog and the scorpion into the sky.
Another version says that Orion tried to rape Artemis and thus received his fate.
Yet another version says that Artemis fell in love with Orion and her brother Apollo tricked her into killing him, so as to protect her maidenhood. He did this by pointing Orion out as he was swimming in the distance and betting her she couldn’t hit him with her arrow. She didn’t recognize her beloved before she took her brother up on the bet.
I have a story outlined, but I am nervous of getting someone to give their opinion. So I want to know what people feel is the most important aspect of a fantasy story and how you would judge one.
Since the story is not believable, I’d think believable characters with believable problems would be the thing to make the audience care about the story.
