Supernatural Refuge Builder / 1929 Haunted Mining Town / Character Drama
Nocturne Hollow
A dead mining town. A bootlegger with nothing left. A refuge for monsters hiding from the modern world.
Overview
Rebuild the town the world forgot
Nocturne Hollow is set in the spring of 1929 in a defunct mining town hidden deep in the Adirondack Mountains of New York. After a violent police raid destroys the player’s bootlegging family near Freehold, New Jersey, a family contact in the governor’s office points toward an impossible opportunity: the deeds to a dead town no one wants to remember.
The player bribes their way into ownership of Nocturne Hollow and drives north with grief, guilt, survival instincts, and a desperate plan. The first step is practical and dangerous: turn one of the abandoned mine shafts into a hidden distillery to generate revenue. But the town is not as empty as it looks, and the woods around it are not simply woods.

Story Premise
The town was abandoned for a reason.
Nocturne Hollow was once a company mining town. Now its main street is empty, its cottages are rotting, its mine offices are silent, and the surrounding forest has swallowed the edges of every road, fence, and memory. The player arrives expecting a hideout and a business opportunity.
Instead, Nocturne Hollow becomes something larger: a shelter for creatures who cannot survive in normal towns, a dangerous enterprise built on illegal liquor and buried history, and a place where rebuilding the walls may awaken whatever was left sealed beneath the mountain.
