Every Halloween night, the fog rolled into Hollow Creek, thick and whispering. Kids said it carried voices soft, calling your name if you listened too long.
Mara never believed it, until last October 31st. She followed the sound through the mist, her pumpkin lantern glowing faint orange. The deeper she went, the quieter everything became, until she saw it another lantern, flickering in the distance.
It swayed gently, held by someone just out of sight. “Hello?” she called. No answer. Only the soft crunch of footsteps circling her.
When the fog lifted the next morning, they found her lantern on the bridge still warm, still glowing. And if you walk by Hollow Creek today, some say you can see two lights in the mist, dancing side by side.
