The First Lantern

Every Halloween night, the veil between the living and the dead grows thin. In an ancient Celtic village cursed by shadows, a lonely orphan discovers a mysterious lantern capable of keeping evil spirits away. But the flame demands a terrible price — his memories. As darkness consumes the village, the boy must decide whether to save his people or hold on to the last memory of his mother.

A haunting origin story about fear, sacrifice, and the birth of Halloween traditions.
