Ragged Blade announces "A Ghost, A Zombie, and a Vampire," by Steve Carverno of Wilmington, NC as the winner of the playwriting contest for its "Grave Undertakings" evening of Halloween comedy.

We had submissions from all over America (two from hometown St. Louis) as well as from Italy, England, and Canada. Judges were given plays anonymously. Ragged Blade thanks the judges who put in a lot of time as readers, as well as all contestants and everyone who helped spread the word about the contest.
