* 2003 Winners (see archived link for the categories, ratings, and story descriptions)
* AO3 collection for 2003 Spooky Awards
"The stories selected for Honorable Mentions were chosen, like the winners were, by the votes cast by all of YOU. So those stories which do receive this designation were selected because the number of votes they got were very close to the top three, although not quite enough to place. We used the "natural break" method employed in previous rounds to determine how many Honorable Mentions there would be, and if a category would have any Honorable Mentions at all; that's why you may notice that not all categories have the same number of Honorable Mentions as others. It might look random and unstructured, but believe us, it's not. :)"
