Does anyone have suggestions for any prestigious horror short story contests? Something that might get you noticed?

I don't know about short story contests, but AFAIK the Bram Stoker award is the horror field's big prize.

I guess prestige is where you find it. What about a challenge? http://www.hellnotes.com/fiction.html?1121446454421

that's something i'd be up for. i'm working on a challenge right now which has gotten a bit out of hand despite things just being crazy this week (in the middle of buying a business, so you can imagine where my priorities lie, getting the deal done or writing a horror story, lol).

a thousand words, though? pfft. i write that in the memo section of a check.
