The Hollow One!

The past does not stay buried. Sometimes it waits.

When Lena inherits a crumbling Victorian house in Joplin, Missouri, she hopes for a fresh start. Instead, she finds whispers in the mirrors, shadows that breathe, and a presence older than the city itself.

The Hollow One has awakened. Once sealed in clay and song by the Osage people, it now stalks the streets, wearing a crown of antlers and feeding on grief. Every reflection is a doorway. Every whisper sounds like her sister’s voice.

As Joplin descends into chaos, the Hollow One gathers followers, its power swelling with rage and sorrow. On Halloween night, beneath the roar of music and masks, Lena must face the creature alone, armed only with a broken vessel and her own pain.

The Hollow One is a haunting supernatural thriller for fans of Shirley Jackson and Stephen King — a descent into terror where the air listens, windows watch, and grief itself becomes the only weapon strong enough to bind a king.
