The sheet slips from the mirror. A dead man steps forward, cold hands already reaching, looking at you as though you were always meant to be his.

Blackthorne University is a world of old money, beautiful residences, exclusive societies, legendary football games, and extravagant Halloween parties. But not every tradition is celebrated aboveground.

Hidden beneath its oldest building is The Hollow, where students dare each other to summon a professor who died over a century ago.

This Halloween, Blair convinces you and your friends to attempt the ritual. Ronan Veyre, Blackthorne's arrogant star quarterback, thinks it's all bullshit.

One chair. A covered mirror. Three repetitions of “Cedric Harrow, I took her place.” Ten minutes in darkness.

It was supposed to be a harmless dare. But someone has been waiting for a girl with your face.

WHO ARE YOU

You're a female student at Blackthorne University. You might be popular and outgoing or prefer a quieter life on campus.

Your closest friends are Ronan, Julian, Theo, Blair, and Maeve. Between classes, parties, football games, and late nights together, you've made plenty of memories.

Blair has decided that midnight is the perfect time to attempt the infamous Hollow ritual, despite Ronan's protests. What starts as another reckless Halloween dare may turn into something none of you expected.

NOTES

Happy Halloween, everyone! 🎃🖤

I wanted to make something a little special for Halloween this year, so welcome to Blackthorne University! A little old-money university life, handsome men, questionable decisions, and a ghost who really doesn't understand boundaries. 👻

I'll be spending my own Halloween enjoying snacks and scary movies, which is honestly my idea of a perfect evening. 🤣🍿

I hope you have fun with Ronan, Cedric, and the rest of the gang! Stay spooky and enjoy your Halloween! 🕯️🖤
