Introduction

Introduction...

Once upon a time a bustling town where humans lived,worked and played. A tragedy occurred in the blackness of the heavy woods,a man dead, a man dead just upon hallows eve.His head lobbed off by who? By what? A prayer, a pardon, an anything to send this poor soul on its way to peace.Who would commit such a terrible crime? Oh my dears it was that of the headless horsemen, a man who in a distant past had suffered the same gory end.

A soldier of the dead, a specter of the night, rides his phantom steed for the quest of his head;a bloody axe in his hand, a hole in his heart, led a surge of misfortune upon those poor mortals, bringing fourth death and plague.Their pleads of mercy and their cries of suffering gone unheard in the black abyss of the forest. Wiping them all out...but than vanished but not before placing a curse upon the earth "I claim this land ,for I am dieing and already dead,shall cease due to return under the harvest moon.To return upon hallows eve, and to return when the blood of a sinful mortal touches upon this
land
of
Sleepy Hollow...


Setting

Many years have passed since our headless friend has made that claim and the legend has been forgotten.Let's stop gazing into sleepy hollows dark past shall we? And zip back to the present ages...


Hello,

Well our little town is really a safe-haven for creatures, annoyed or afraid of human interaction.We are tucked away far from humans in the Black Wood forest.But don't worry we have all the modern accommodations,besides cars;they do not comply with out towns vast terrain.We do have human residents,but as like everyone else they must pledge the oath of alliance to our pleasant town, everyone must be cleared if they want to set foot in our town.We have stores, shops,and hangouts owned and managed by our lovely townsfolk.Get a job better our community, and try to keep out of trouble;I have enough work to complete already.In our town we DO NOT discriminate everyone is excepted if they are willing to serve for the greater good of Sleepy Hollow.

Sincerely,
Joy Hollows, Town Mayor



About the Town

Hello, Joy again! I'd love to tell you more about are spooky little neighborhoods.So read on and go through the Sleepy Hollow guide full of places and points of interest in and around our enchanted town.OH! Almost forgot check back here often because times and dates change!

Points of interest.

Black Wood Forest.

Black Wood forest is not the most pleasant of places,but the eerie fogs that appear at night do give this place a sense of beauty and mystery.This forest is said to be hunted by the forgotten spirits of those slaughtered by the horsemen many many years ago.Not to mention creatures of tainted heart lurk in the everlasting shadows of the forest. So watch out when traveling through these parts,but in the center of this darkness is a light; that light my friends is our mythical town of Sleepy Hollow.

The Forest



Sleepy Hollow: Town Square

The name is pretty self explanatory, this is the center of our town ,and the first place you will see when entering our town's blackens gates, there is Town Hall where you would most likely find me most of the day and some of the night.It is bright and cheerful still keeping the hint of dark magic in the air.Remember our towns covenant says no one of pure evil can step foot in our land and must be cast into the darkness of the woods, especially if you are human.Not many people believe in the tale of the headless horsemen but I do and as the mayor I make the rules and laws here.In front of the town hall you will see a fountain made of black rock showing a statue of the horsemen,and shrine if you want to quickly pay respects to the victims.The local cafe and flower and festival shop is located in this area.Living here means being stuffed in unusual and corky apartments and lofts, but an easy walk to where ever you need to go.

Sleepy Hollow: Red Lantern District

Now this is defiantly a place to visit if you are a creature of the night! It has bars,the gambling house,the clubs and dance spots, bursting with unique modern flare yet still keeping a vibe similar to a feudal Japanese festival! Hence the name.Have some fun with your friends 'round here!Not the most quiet place even in the day there are buskers and performers to keep the party going.But the thick walls,and heavy blinds of the eastern inspired town homes makes sure you'll be able to sleep off last nights party.

the streets of the district

Sleepy Hollow: Sleep Light district

This is a part of the town that most people prefer to live. Its quiet and with a spooky yet beautiful garden and park in the center; a must if one just wants to relax and enjoy nature.It also opens onto a small lake and when the harvest moonlight hits the water and the fogs roll in the lake shore is breathtaking!This area also contains the book store and local bathhouse, which claims their waters have magical qualities...

Sleepy hollow: Runic District

This is the most mysterious part of Sleepy Hollow, where the nightly fog grows thick and the darkness falls heavy.This area is preserved from the night the horseman terrorized the town for the last time.There is a large temple to fully give your respects to the spirits, and to pray that such horror will not occur again.This is not a populated area,probably due to the fact the land is flooded and the only way to really make your way around the area is by the board walk streets.The amount of water is great for agriculture and the raised land is reserved for farming and cattle raising so the local food market is located here.This is also where the Hollows manor is located, so pay me a visit once and a while!

Hallows Manor
