The Hollow: A Supernatural Mystery

Twenty years ago, five girls vanished into the woods behind Greyport High School and discovered something impossible beneath the riverbank.

Only four came back whole enough to pretend it was over.

Now, the Class of 1987 is gathering again beneath faded gymnasium lights and awkward nostalgia, but the women who once called themselves Katie, Jojo, Kirsten, Isabella, and Nat are carrying far more than old memories.

One has spent decades holding everyone together until she nearly disappeared herself. One sees too much truth to trust anyone fully. One buried her strength so deeply she forgot it was ever hers. One never truly left the Hollow behind.

And one has become something the world no longer knows how to contain.

When a buried relic resurfaces during the reunion, the women are forced back toward the place they swore never existed—a hidden world beneath Greyport where memory bends, identity sharpens, and the deepest parts of a person refuse to stay buried.

But the Hollow does not give people powers.

It reveals them.

And this time, the girls must decide whether reclaiming themselves is worth the cost of remembering what they became there in the first place.

A character-driven supernatural mystery about grief, friendship, identity, and becoming, The Hollow blends dark coming-of-age, aching nostalgia, and quiet dread into a story about the people who know us best—and the parts of ourselves we can never truly leave behind.
