The Whispers in Hollow Creek by viaaaa_writes
25 parts Complete
In the remote village of Hollow Creek, nestled deep within the misty confines of an ancient forest, strange occurrences disturb the lives of its inhabitants. Legends say that the village is cursed, haunted by vengeful spirits bound to the land since the tragic events of a forgotten past. The story follows Lily Dawson, a young journalist with a knack for the supernatural, who arrives in Hollow Creek to investigate these eerie tales for her latest article. Upon her arrival, Lily is welcomed by the cold stares and cryptic warnings of the villagers. She dismisses their superstitions, driven by her ambition to uncover the truth. However, as night falls, she begins to hear chilling whispers echoing through the tree line outside her window, coaxing her to uncover secrets buried long ago. Determined to find the source of these whispers, Lily teams up with an enigmatic local historian, Ethan, who believes that unlocking the past is the only way to quell the unrest. Together, they delve into the village's history, uncovering stories of a massacre that took place centuries ago during a ritual gone wrong. Each revelation brings them closer to the heart of the curse and the spirits trapped within. Amidst mounting fear and escalating supernatural occurrences, Lily and Ethan realize they must perform a dangerous ritual to appease the spirits and lift the curse. As they race against time, they battle both the sinister forces of the supernatural and the skepticism of the villagers who are unwilling to confront their past. In a spine-chilling climax set during a storm-laden night, Lily must face the ultimate test of courage and faith, as the boundary between the living and the dead blurs, threatening to engulf the village in shadow forever. It's a harrowing tale of uncovering darkness, confronting fears, and the unrelenting whisper of unseen forces that haunt the haunted.

A VEIL IN THE SHADE

1 part Complete Mature

Wisnokee. A city where the night devours the weak, and justice is as twisted as the criminals who rule its streets. Corruption thrives in every alley, and the law is just another game played by those with power. Detective Elroy Stephens has spent years trying to clean up the filth, but some cases refuse to be solved in the light. That's why, when the sun sets, he becomes something else. He becomes The Veil. A masked vigilante, a shadow in the dark, the last judgment for those the system refuses to punish. But Wisnokee is bleeding, and something far more sinister has emerged. Bodies begin appearing-hanging from streetlights, from courthouse rafters, from the bones of a dying city. Each corpse bears a mark-a sentence passed by an executioner long thought to be a ghost. They call him The Hangman. And his trials have just begun. Now, The Veil must descend into the abyss of Wisnokee's underworld, facing ruthless crime lords, corrupt officials, and a cult of justice-driven fanatics who believe the only way to cleanse the city is by leaving it hanging. As the lines between justice and vengeance blur, Elroy will be forced to confront his own demons. Because in Wisnokee, the only verdict that matters is the one written in blood. In Wisnokee, justice isn't blind... it's hanging by a thread.
