Spooky Children's Stories

Good writers plan ahead....
You've already thoughtfully answered questions about characters, setting, and plot to prepare for your children's story....now consider this:

What will you include to make your story interesting and spooky?  How will you get kids engaged and excited about reading your story?  What traits of good writing will you try to focus on?  What will make your story a quality children's story? 
Respond to these questions in a comment.  Happy writing!
