Is there a writing contest for horror novels?

Thank you, publisher Christopher Payne, for bringing this to my attention.

JournalStone Publishing

JournalStone’s $2,000 advance in 2011 Publishing Contest  http://journalstone.com
Get your HORROR novel published and earn a $2,000 advance against future royalties.
JournalStone is holding its first HORROR publishing contest. Have you written a horror novel?  Would you like to be published?  Would you like to actually earn money for your efforts?
Submit your 75,000 words or more manuscript/novel to christophercpayne@journalstone.com on or before 11 p.m. Pacific time June 1, 2011, and you will be entered.  The winner will receive a $2,000 advance against future royalties and have his/her novel published by JournalStone.  Grammar counts, people.  Have it edited before you submit your entry.
The #1 winner is also eligible for active membership to the HWA (Horror Writers Association).  Have you always wanted to join, but haven’t met the criteria.  You can now become an active member with all of its benefits and prestige!
Scared about not winning?  Second prize gets a $500 advance and a published novel.  Yes, you have to sign a contract first.  Third place gets a $200 advance and for the last time, also gets a published novel.  Not one of the top three?  No worries, you might still be good enough to get your novel published, you will just have to earn your money on the royalties.  We only have so much to give out for free.
