The Shadows of Hollow Hill: A Halloween Tale
The Shadows of Hollow Hill: A Halloween Tale
It was a crisp autumn evening in the small town of Maplewood, where leaves danced along the streets like lost souls looking for a way home. The townsfolk were busy preparing for Halloween, hanging cobwebs, carving pumpkins, and securing that last ghostly figure in their yards. But among the brightly painted front porches, tales of a cursed night whispered through the air—tales of Hollow Hill.
Generations had passed down the legend of Hollow Hill, a nearby mound believed to be haunted by the spirits of those who had once lived in Maplewood. Long ago, a witch named Agatha was accused of stealing the town’s harvest, and in a fit of rage, the townspeople condemned her to die by fire at the summit of Hollow Hill. They said that on Halloween night, the veil between the living and the dead grew thin, and Agatha’s spirit roamed the earth, searching for revenge.
As the sun dipped beneath the horizon, casting eerie shadows over the town, a group of teenagers—Jake, Mia, Devon, and Chloe—decided they would brave the night and explore Hollow Hill. Dressed in costumes ranging from a vampire to a witch, they felt invincible, their laughter drowning out the fear that lingered in the back of their minds.
“Come on! It’s just a story!” Jake scoffed, pushing ahead of the others. “We’ll go to the top, take a selfie, and be legends ourselves.”
