Hallosville

Hallosville, Festive County, [​REDACTED], United States of America

Disclaimer: Yes, I know it's spelled "Hallows", I first made this name when I was about 10 so it's sticking spelled wrong.



Hallosville is a small town in the middle of an undisclosed mountain range in the continental United States in an undisclosed state, Festive County, and the Hallos Valley. The City of Hallosville was established in 1907, has a population of 884 residents, and is at an elevation of 7,248ft (2,209m).

The Hallos Valley is a high-elevation valley with multiple mountains surrounding it. The tallest mountain around it is the mythical Mt. Spook with a peak elevation of 14,505ft (4,421m). Directly next to Mt. Spook is Nightmare Peak which sits at an elevation of 10,570ft (3,222m). Due to an unknown phenomenon, both peaks are constantly lit during nights in mid-autumn, this phenomenon has puzzled scientists for a century and a half since its discovery. Most of the Mountains surrounding the small valley are between 11,000 feet and 14,000 feet in elevation with very steep cliffs, historically the only way into the Valley was Skelet Pass on the eastern slopes of the Valley.



You find yourself transported to this town, with no money, just a hotel room and a dream. A dream to trick-or-treat to collect candy and protect the town from [​REDACTED]. Buy costumes with candy, trick-or-treat to further enrich yourself, explore the town and it's unusual residents/history, and compete in player-events that happen throughout the season of Hallos. Weirder still, you find the residents to be people you may see on the TNTWCraft Minecraft Server, but they are different- with different names and aspirations and don't seem to recognize you or their player-counterparts.
