You all know the boogie man and Slenderman and even Samara/The Grudge and all of their stories. But can you imagine a place where all of these fictional characters were real. It started on an autumn night October 13 1897 in a small town in the middle of nowhere, An eerie place where all the cabins smelled and rotted. There is only mist no sunshine no clouds or a sun. Even the night sky was blank. No one has ever attempted to leave to scared and this place is called Sleepy Hollow. It started small with only 4 people, it then got a bit bigger 8 more people. The town was slowly growing, 16 more, 23 more, 42 more people, it kept going. On this day they reached their 666 person, the cursed number, people liked the small village even though people have said that it has kind of a creepy vibe to it. The longer people stayed the more crazy people became to be. Some burghers say they hear things or feel as if they're being watched from the "creatures" in the woods. Outsiders say they're crazy and delusional, some say it's all an act, But is it?
A couple of the newer villagers started getting a bit curious of the Forbidden Woods where the creatures live. It was Halloween and that's when they went out. It was a dark night, but when is it not. THey ventured out it was peaceful for about an hour. Then suddenly they came across this small house. THey walked up to it and found that it was empty then there flashlight died. They started looking around for some sort of light source. THey couldn't find anything so they decided to go back to the village, but on their way back they got lost and got off the main path. THey heard a strange noise coming up from behind them when suddenly this giant tall figure long arms and legs but no hands or feet, no eyes, but they had a mouth full of sharp teeth and a long pointed tongue. THey ran for hours til they finally got back. One of them saw that the creature had masks on him, like as if he were collecting masks. Most of them were undescriptive, but he saw one. It was it was all a gray off white colour, it didn't have eyes but giant scratch marks and a dead looking mouth.
The friends started to make these masks. They made a total of 666 of them for one person in Sleepy Hollow. THe three had an idea to wear these masks and venture the woods again. It's the middle of night and they went. There in the middle of the forest where they found the little hut but it wasn't there anymore. They started searching when they ran into the same creature. They decided to call them "Hollows". The Hollow comes close to them and sees the masks and backs off to establish trust, but take off the mask it's sure to kill you. Some say the village still lives to this day, some say it's just a story. It's your choice to believe. (My inspiration was Slenderman And MIss Peregrine's Home for peculiar children)
