We know dev tales can be downright terrifying. This Halloween, we dare you to share your scariest work story. All the bugs that rose from the grave, the deploys that screamed at midnight, the “it works on my machine” poltergeist. Give us your horrors tales (and fails) and snatch some wicked prizes while you’re at it.
Tell us who you are and your spooky story.
Send in your scariest web story.
Amazing prizes await the bravest creators!
What you can snag… if your dev tale freezes the coolant in our server racks.
