Ember hollow secret

Peculiar_Omotayo
In the remote town of Ember Hollow, an eerie invitation awaits a group of strangers, each marked by a dark past they can’t escape. The letters they receive promise an inheritance, but the truth is far more sinister. Drawn to the long-forgotten town in Plateau State, they soon realize they’ve been summoned not for wealth—but as sacrifices to something ancient, something that has been waiting for them. Ikenna, a skeptical university student, is lured by the promise of a family inheritance he never knew existed. Maya, a tormented artist plagued by visions, can’t escape the town’s pull. Pastor Samuel, a man of faith, believes his past sins are catching up with him. Each is bound by a force that whispers their name, one by one. As they journey to Ember Hollow, time warps and the boundaries between the living and the dead blur. The town is not just abandoned; it is alive—its secrets buried in flames and whispers of lost souls. With every step they take, the past claws its way into their minds, revealing horrors that will bind them to the town forever unless they can break the curse. As night falls and the town shifts, the strangers must face the truth of their own guilt, their sins, and the horrors that lie beneath the charred ruins of Ember Hollow. Only one thing is certain: the town remembers, and it demands its price.
