The Hollow Ones: A Halloween Horror Story

By Dinesh Deckker

Six friends rent a remote cabin for a Halloween getaway. The trees are hung with scarecrows. Every dawn, the circle outside is missing one figure. Every night, someone inside wakes gagging on straw, their skin tightening into seams, their voice drying to a whisper that is not theirs.

What begins as teasing and old grudges turns vicious as the cabin closes in on them. Someone hides the keys. Someone keeps a hatchet. Someone decides a life is math.

Relentless, visceral, and psychological, The Hollow Ones is folk horror about fear that becomes arithmetic. It does not blink. It does not bargain.

For readers of rural gothic and prestige folk horror.
Content note: graphic violence, body horror, and intense psychological themes.

Respect the displays. Respect the quiet. Respect the count.
