The Hollow Archives

A space dedicated to showcasing the eerie, the unknown, and the uncanny. This annual horror and speculative fiction contest invites high school writers to explore dark and imaginative worlds, challenging the limits of storytelling. Join us in unearthing tales that provoke, unsettle, and inspire.

The Hollow Archives presents Tales from the Black Sea

Dare to venture into the depths.

We’re looking for high school students to craft short stories (3,000-5,000 words) that delve into the unknown waters of speculative horror. The sea is vast, unknowable, and filled with things best left undisturbed. What secrets lie beneath? What nightmares drift to the surface? Join us in exploring the depths of the Black Sea, a place of unimaginable horrors and unsolved mysteries. Submit your stories by [submission deadline]!
