The Tale of Tessa Crane (Halloween Chronicles #2)
Sleepy Hollow is a strange town, but that is to be expected. The only reason the town exists is because of a ghost story. Of course, everyone knows the legend of the Headless Horseman. Or, at least they thought they did. As it is with all fiction, there is always a little bit of truth in those stories. There was an Ichabod Crane, an Abraham Van Brunt, and of course, a Katrina Van Tassel. There was also a devious prank, but other than that, it was all made up. Too bad not everyone understood, that just because some of it was true, not all of it was. Tessa Crane, a descendant of the same Ichabod Crane that made her hometown famous, thought she knew the story, the real story anyway. It was her history after all. However, everything changes one fateful Halloween night. Tessa and Abraham "Ander" Van Brunt the Seventh, Tessa's rival and least favorite person, have no choice but to work together when they become targets of the Headless Horseman himself. It's a race against time to discover the truth of what happened between their families all those years ago. Will they defeat the Headless Horseman in time or will they both lose their heads?Complete

The Owl House : The Vessel {Male! OC}
Within the Boiling Isles, there is a group of Witches that live within the very the skeleton of the Titan. Nobody truly knows who - or even what - they are, and rumors spread that they are people who live isolated from Emperor Belos' rule. "They are dangerous" he told them, and they agreed, because why would their Emperor lie to them all? Because of this, they were isolated and - under the command of Emperor Belos - they were killed off one by one until only one remained. However, he wouldn't be seen in the Boiling Isles for over a decade until he eventually returns to the place of his origin. Hollow Knight - an Orphan who was adopted by the Noceda Family - was always a strange kid. Not "Luz" strange, but strange all the same. He wasn't into fantasy, though he was very interested in the art of combat, and therefore learned how to do it. He even learned how to fight with a sword - much to the concern of his mother. After being told he and his sister were being sent off to Summer Camp because of a "Book Report" - though Hollow used that term loosely - that went wrong. Fortunately or unfortunately, that never came to be after a strange owl lead them through a portal and into another world.![Quit You (HunterXReader[The Owl House])](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/323988431-256-k472985.jpg)
Quit You (HunterXReader[The Owl House])
Life on the Boiling Isles is tough by default. Between the acid rain, demons and monsters running around, and magic, it's hectic. For anybody. But, even by Boiling Isles standards, I feel like my life got a little out of control these last few months. My name is Y/n Y/l/n. I'm sixteen. I'm in the Emperor's Coven working as a scout. Not that many people know about my age. And I'm fine with that. One of the few people who know about my age is my boss, Emperor Belos, obviously. He was chill about it when he found out, never really brought it up again, and I honestly almost forgot he knew for a while. Until he asked to see me personally, of course. Next thing I knew I'm wrapped up with the Golden Gaurd and revolutions and Titan knows what else. Worst of all? I think I have a crush on my best friend. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I decided to write a Hunter X reader story bc this app is severally lacking in Hunter stuff. BTW Y/n is gender neutral in this so you can read this whatever your gender is. Started: 15.9.22 Ended: Ongoing ON HOLD UNTIL SEASON THREE IS FINISHEDComplete
