Hoppy and Day One in the Abandoned Village (Book 1 of 10)

Three friends arrive with a simple plan: spend one night in an abandoned village, record the fear, and leave with footage worth posting. Hoppy brings rules. Evan brings checklists. Miles brings a camera-and loud confidence.

They expect broken houses, cold air, and scary shadows. Nothing more.

Then the village answers them with something worse than ghosts: precision. A door that was shut is open. A knot they tied is different. A sound repeats from the wrong distance-too measured, too controlled. And the most terrifying part isn't what happens... it's what it implies: whatever is here knows where they sleep, how close they are, and what they won't admit out loud.

Day One is grounded survival horror-cold, thirst, fatigue, and the slow collapse of certainty. Every choice costs something. Every mistake leaves evidence. And the night teaches the first rule of the series:

This isn't about courage. It's about discipline.

Why buy this book: because Day One doesn't "begin" the story. It closes the trap-and the final clue will make you want Day Two immediately. Start the 10-day countdown here... then keep going, because the village doesn't stop after one night. Part of the 10-book series: Hoppy and His Friends in the Abandoned Village.

About the Series

Hoppy and His Friends in the Abandoned Village

Three friends enter one abandoned village for a simple "content challenge": ten days, ten nights, and proof. No ghosts. No magic. Just something real enough to be possible-and smart enough to stay hidden.

This is procedural survival horror: cold, thirst, fatigue, and human psychology under pressure. The village doesn't rush them. It studies them, nudges small details, and waits for the one mistake that can't be undone.

Each book delivers one complete "Day" with a sharp payoff-and a hook that makes the next day feel unavoidable. If you like horror built on realism, discipline, and consequences... start Day One-and don't stop.
