Guardian of the Graveyard: The Hallows Sprite's Tale
Share
In the shadowy depths beyond the graveyard, where the veil between realms is paper thin, the will-o-the-wisp lingers and shadows dance, there stands a majestic yew tree. Its gnarled branches reach towards the moonlit sky, casting an eerie silhouette against the backdrop of night. Within its hollowed trunk, a mysterious Halloween nature sprite makes its home.
The Hallows sprite embodies the essence of Samhain, with an enigmatic aura that belies its true intentions. The Halloween sprite’s appearance seems dark and foreboding, but his intentions are noble: to protect mankind from the otherworldly creatures that prowl the night.
The Hallows sprite conjures hollowed-out turnip lanterns, glowing with an otherworldly glow, along the edge of the ancient woods, the bogs and the marshes. These lanterns act as beacons, their flickering flames beckoning the attention of lost wandering spirits and dark entities. The lanterns emit a sweet, heavy spiced scent which lure these malevolent beings back to the realm from which they came, protecting humanity from their eerie grasp.
The sprite watches from the shadows as people hurriedly pass by, fearing to be seen. With its dark and mysterious nature, only whispers of its presence and its mysterious deeds circulate among the townsfolk, sparking fear and superstition. If only they would stop for just moment they would catch the heady scent of the lanterns and warm to the sprite’s presence.
