The year is 1982. Every Breath You Take and Billie Jean are top of the charts. After dinner, everyone gathers around the boob tube to watch Dallas. Kids spend their leftover lunch money in the coin slots of Pac-Man down at the local pizza shop. The world feels vibrant. But rumors are starting to spread that something dark has come to town.

Hickory Creek Hollow, or just ‘the Holler’, population  8,953 8,941 is a sweet little gem, ‘the south’s best-kept secret,’ set deep into Georgia woodlands. In the past decades its grown more popular for its pretty coastal scenery, warm southern weather, and friendly folk, mostly with smiles on their faces. Mayor’s even started to parcel out the land for rich profits and new developers.

Despite all that beauty, there are shadows lurking around every corner. People are talkin’ about the Whitaker boy gone missing and turned up dead. Couple folks have mentioned something about the local socialite seeming not quite right before she drove her car into Heron Lake. Others say they’ve seen something, felt something, out in the Chickasaw Creek Woods. There’s an awful lot of questions, but nobody wants to speculate too loud, else their neighbors might start whispering about them being crazy.

Are you ready to help unravel the mystery of the darkness stalking this little Hollow?

We are a clique-free friendly bunch that love to OOC chatter! Newcomers are welcome with open arms. The setting is southern gothic with grit and few elements of fantasy. Characters should be realistic and fit the setting. Most writing will be slice-of-life with eerie elements and an overarching plot. Dice rolls are used for some elements but not a heavy mechanic.
