Midnight Hollow Chronicles

Hidden deep within the woods of Duskwood, Maine, lies a forgotten clearing known only to a handful of kids- The Hollow. A circle of ancient stones, a fire that never seems to burn out completely, and a silence that feels... watchful. Every Saturday night, seven teens from the quiet town gather around the flames to tell stories of fear, loss, and shadows they swear sometimes move on their own. They call themselves The Midnight Circle. For them, the stories are just a game- until the game stops playing fair. Because something in The Hollow is listening. Something old. Something patient. Something hungry. As their tales grow darker, the boundaries between fiction and reality begin to blur. A boy made of ash is seen wandering the streets at night. A house abandoned for decades starts whispering again. A photograph shows a woman who shouldn't exist... standing inches behind one of them. And in the depths of the forest, a tall, faceless figure stirs- The Storyteller, an ancient entity that feeds on human imagination and bends it into terrifying reality. Now, the Midnight Circle must uncover the truth about Duskwood's buried past and the origin of The Hollow... before their own fears take shape and come for them. Because every story has a life of its own. And some stories don't want to stay in the dark.
