Short Story Summary
The Hollow Town is a psychological horror story that blurs the line between reality and illusion. What begins as a quiet trip to a forgotten mountain town slowly turns into an unsettling experience where silence feels alive and time refuses to behave normally. As the characters encounter a mysterious book and a town that repeats itself, the story pulls the reader deeper into fear, confusion, and self-doubt. By the end, it becomes impossible to tell whether the horror exists in the world… or inside the mind of the person reading.
What Next?
-
What if the town was never meant to be escaped?
-
Is the book only recording events, or is it creating them?
-
Did Ryan disappear because of a mistake, or because of a rule already written?
-
Is the hospital the real world—or just another layer of the story?
-
And if the book leaves space for the reader’s name… what does that mean for you?
These questions stay with you long after the last line, quietly pulling you back into the story again.
