Hallow Mountain Graveyard
WILL YOU DARE TO STAY AFTER DARK WHEN THE UNDEAD RISE, SEEKING THEIR WAY OFF HALLOW MOUNTAIN?
During the harvest moon, the lost souls of anguished settlers become the undead, rising from their graves, desperately searching for a way off Hallow Mountain as zombies, eager to harvest souls to share their misery.
Meet the Gravedigger as he weaves a tale from long ago then takes you on a journey through Hallow Mountain Graveyard.
