The Legend Returns

"A Curse at Rest, Stays at Rest. Until..."

When the New York State Thruway was constructed, the unknowing workers paved the way for far more than just traffic—they awakened the ancient curse of Erie Hollows. The restless spirits that vanished in 1888 during the fateful Festival of the Willows are back, and they won’t rest until their toll is paid.

The blinding lights, the deafening siren, the whispers of those lost... It's all still there, waiting to pull you in. This isn’t just a story. It’s the reality hidden beneath our feet. Erie Hollows is not just a forgotten legend—it’s a ticking clock. And this Halloween season, time is running out.
