FAQs
Are multiple submissions accepted?
Yes. See #3 above under Rules.
Does my caption have to be a quote?
Nope. You can give the photo a title, write a poem, make it a quote as if someone’s saying something, write a flash story…anything goes. Whatever the photo inspires from you, we’ll take!
Ready?
Go!
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.

I told you I could hang on longer than you.
He followed me home, can I keep him?
Funny, this doesn’t look like my closet at all.
If I win, I am a newsletter subscriber,,,,,,forgot to add above, go so excited with the caption. I will take the Amazon & Starbuck GC. Thanks so much for the opportunity.
No bones about it, this is one hell of an Uber ride!
I am now a newsletter subscriber. It would be the Amazon card and the target card.
Well. This is another fine mess you’ve gotten me in.
While the subject of exactly whose car it was remained a bone of contention between Harold and his somewhat clingy former best friend and business partner Mandrake McGovern, those who had followed the sorry saga through every downward, ever worsening spiral over the last two and a bit years and were therefore in a position to know, claimed they could see right through the lies and false claims of one of the claimants who, not surprisingly it turns out, was later shown to have been weighed down with the burden of trying to conceal the truth of harbouring a number of over-sized family skeletons in his walk-in, Ikea designed closet.
P.s Thanks Courtney so much for allowing an ‘out-of-towner’ like myself to enter the comp. I do so simply to be a part of the fun, knowing I am not eligble for any prize. Dare I say it – participation is its own reward!
NOOOO!!! I refuse to stay home AGAIN just because I make the in-laws uncomfortable!
Subscriber and I would like the Starbucks card if I win! Love your site.
Thanks,
Donna
You left me out in the rain again and i melted!
Yes, Grandma will come down from heaven to join us for the holidays.
Ten days later, June finally figured out where the stink was coming from in her car –
Yes, Maude finally found the perfect Halloween decoration after visiting the cemetery –
“I swear! He was undressed when he jumped on to the car!”
Oh my goodness! You guys did it again. SUCH fun and funny captions. Made my job SO hard!
Glen once again delivered another fun flash to read with the caption.
William, Donna M, and Donna H…you three. Where did you get those? So silly! (But loved them!) Thanks for making me smile.
Cindy and Susan S. you were right there entertaining me with your enthusiastic entries.
But there was one that stood out and made me think, “Oh that’s clever. Very, very clever.” So CONGRATS to Pamela K. Kinney who is the winner of this month’s Caption This contest!
Note: I also thought I’d mention that this is the last Caption This for 2016. (Didn’t know that when I first posted it or would’ve warned you all sooner.)
Stay tuned for 2017 when we will either bring it back OR we might offer another fun monthly challenge of some sort.
As always, THX to all who entered!
