The Midnight Carolers
The town of Black Hollow was known for its picturesque snowfalls and cozy, candlelit streets during the holiday season. Every December, families hung wreaths on their doors, children built snowmen in the park, and the air was filled with the sweet aroma of roasted chestnuts from street vendors. But Black Hollow had one peculiar tradition that no one dared to question: when the Midnight Carolers came to sing, you stayed inside.

The Wreath of Whispers
It was the first snowfall of December when the Harrisons decided to pull out the Christmas decorations. The family had moved into the old Victorian house just two weeks prior, drawn by its charm and too-good-to-be-true price. The creaky floorboards and drafty windows didn’t bother them; in fact, they found the quirks endearing. For Sarah and David, it was the perfect place to raise their two children, Emily and Ben.

The Train to Nowhere
The clock struck midnight as the Aurora Express hissed to life, its gleaming black exterior illuminated by the pale glow of the station’s lights. The station itself, a relic of Victorian grandeur, seemed eerily deserted except for a handful of passengers waiting to board. No one knew why the train’s route had suddenly been reinstated after years of abandonment. Even stranger was its destination: Caravelle Junction, a town no map seemed to recognize.

The moon hung high in the sky, casting a pale, silvery glow over the dilapidated mansion. Nestled deep within the woods, the house seemed to breathe darkness.
