The Hollow Season
A village that forgets its dead — until they knock.
Overview
The Hollow Season is a 48-page horror manga about Greyhollow, a mountain village with a simple rule: when someone dies in the snow, you do not speak their name until spring. When a cart-driver's daughter breaks the rule, the village starts hearing knocking from under the ice.
The book was drawn to feel cold. Thin, brittle sketch lines under heavy black shadows; color used only where the story bleeds — the gold of the serpent spirit, the violet of the storm sky. Every spread holds one moment of quiet before the knock comes.
What the project held
- Full 48-page sequential story, from thumbnails to lettering
- Hand-inked brush linework with spectral spot-color
- Custom lettering and sound effects drawn per page
- First-edition print run with spot-gloss cover
From the drawing board
“The scariest page in the book has no monster on it. Just a door.
