The premise

It's Halloween eve on Shelter Island, and the small town is preparing for a killer storm. But the dark clouds gathering over the island are bringing with them a curse one-hundred years in waiting. As the woods give birth to an ungodly and insatiable creature of fire, bones, and earth, three sisters must scramble to stay alive through the long dark night of the Hollow. For it's not something you can kill. It's only something you can try and survive.

Horror Vault's take

On the eve of Halloween, a remote island braces for a devastating storm — but the weather is the least of its worries. A century-old curse stirs something monstrous from the earth itself, a creature born of fire and bone with an insatiable hunger. Three sisters find themselves at the center of the chaos, fighting through the long, terrifying night with no guarantee that morning ever comes. Equal parts creature feature and folk horror, The Hollow delivers Halloween atmosphere by the bucketload.
