👻 Hunting Midnight will launch soon!

This will be my next serial fiction project here on Hive and Scholar and Scribe. I predict it will go for over a year with anywhere between two to four 1,000 parts coming out every week.

If you'd like to be mentioned in each story part and on each story contest/giveaway post, you can join my readlist.

Readlist members often get extra perks, like private wheel spins during my giveaways. Past readlist prizes included legendary Splinterlands cards, big chunks of tokens, Collector's Edition NFTs and more.
 

📖 The Readlist event + prizes

To underscore the point above, I'm running a giveaway for anyone who wants to join the readlist before the story even starts.

👉 To join, simply leave a comment here saying that you'd like to join the readlist. I will not count robo-"count me in" comments 🤖

If you were on The Childseeker's War readlist, your entry will count as two raffle tickets! See? Benefits 😉.

250 WOO tokens (x3)
10 SPS tokens (x2)

So that's 12 total prizes that can be won. If fewer than 12 people join the readlist, well, I guess everyone will win!

Story Synopsis

You should probably want to read the tale if you're going to go on the readlist. Here's the synopsis for Episode One:
 

👻
Alena moved to a small town to start a restaurant, not to tangle with a demon. But when the monster messes with her wifi, ruins her roommate's date, and threatens to commit mass murder, she's forced to put her plans on hold.

Impossible phenomena and a chaotic stalker lead her to a grandfather clock with backward numbers. The ghost inside believes she's there to help it escape, and offers to show her the world through its eyes. With one fateful glimpse, Alena ignites a journey that becomes much more than a trade of sanity for safety, and enters a long entrenched battle for the sovereignty of the soul.

The Ghost in the Clock is the inaugural episode of Hunting Midnight, a paranormal adventure series that shatters genre expectations by delivering as much charm as it does creepshow, as many smiles as it does spooks, and an unforgettably unique cast of villains and heroes.

Contains strong language, sexual themes and scenes of violence
