Hallow Fable

In the shadows of modern London lies Hallowmore, a secret world of ghosts, witches, and whispered conspiracies-hidden from ordinary eyes by a veil of ancient magic. Fifteen-year-old Pumpkin Oaksgourd has never fit in. Born with the glowing Salemsight Eyes-a power that pierces illusions and reveals the unseen-she's feared as a curse and coveted as a weapon. When her mysterious mentor, Mrs. Fowler, secures her a rare admission to Windgates Academy, a centuries-old school for magic and investigation, Pumpkin's life becomes a labyrinth of riddles, secrets, and half-told truths. Determined to follow in Fowler's footsteps as an Occultic detective, Pumpkin unearths a string of supernatural murders linked to a forbidden relic: the Hollow Crown, a remnant of the long-vanished Pumpkin King, the dark sorcerer who nearly destroyed the magical world twenty years ago. With her quick wit, a deck of enchanted cards, and allies like the alchemical prodigy Victor Crowe, the runaway werewolf Rei, and the stoic necromancer Velika Blaire, Pumpkin dives headfirst into a mystery that could awaken the evil buried beneath Hallowmore itself. As Halloween approaches, the line between the living and the dead thins-and Pumpkin's bloodline threatens to unravel the veil between worlds. Darkly whimsical, gothic, and pulsing with mystery, Hallow Fable: Eyes of the Hollow blends Gaslamp fantasy, detective intrigue, and occult adventure in a tale of courage, legacy, and the haunting cost of truth. Perfect for fans of Hogwarts Legacy, Black Clover, D.Gray-man, and Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia.
