I am asking everyone in the guild who has webcams or a device to record themselves (You don't have to record yourself it could be a teddybear or your arm or somewhere in your room or something). Please send me a clip of yourself during the night with your own ghost story or maybe something happening in your room or anything you feel might be helpful to any investigations. I'm making a video for this contest.

Why does the person entering have to have parental consent over the age of 19?
Why not 18 (The legal age of majority in most US states)

As an adult (18 ), I don't need my parents to sign for anything. Why this?

Edit: If 19 is the legal age of majority in Canada, could you please add in 18 to all US citizens?

I am an U.S. citizen aswell, so we might be able to let it slide without parental consent if you are 18 or older in the U.S. we put 19 as the age just so the internet doesn't get on backs for kids posting videos. Since I am the leader of this contest I will have the rules changed so that the U.S. can be 18 or older without consent, and Canada can be 19 and older without consent. Anyone younger must have parental consent. I hope this clearly answers your question...if not again feel free to message me!

sorry sorry sorry that was my doing on the consent. It is 18 in Canada as well so as long as our contest leader is ok with that the age is 18. It slipped my mind cause I haven't had to worry about that since I was 18 4 years ago lol
