4 out of 5 stars 212
In the episode Charmed and Dangerous , it required good and evil working together to banish the Hollow, while in another episode Forever Charmed the power of the Halliwell witches was enough. This Art is an art of the spirit; this worldview is a way of seeing that places the power of the Land, and the unseen places within the Land, first in all a person thinks and feels; and this Craft is the Craft of living in accordance with the Land, with the source of dreams, and the deeper urgings of Fate.
The witches of Witch Hollow were a force to be reckoned with. The hollow itself was a sight to behold. It was surrounded by towering trees that seemed to whisper ancient incantations as the wind rustled through their leaves.
The Hollow
The Hollow is an ancient magical vapor of unknown origin that is capable of absorbing all forms of magic it comes in contact with (whether it be good or evil) and it is featured in the Charmed universe. It appears as a swarm of black vapor-like particles floating in mid-air that constitutes a power similar to a black hole, and it can also reside within a magical living being, thus possessing their corporeal form.
It cannot be destroyed by any known means, rather, it can only be contained when powerful representatives from both sides of good and evil join forces and combine their power. It actually possesses no mind nor personality but rather acts like a virus in a vacuum, mindlessly consuming all magic it touches, thus is always referred to as the "void" by the Seer and the Avatars. It is kept in an ancient burial ground as a pact agreed upon by both sides and is heavily guarded by powerful beings.
It has been said that this is the "ultimate power" that will be the end of good and evil, therefore, creating a void as a reality. The Hollow's only desire is to absorb power. If a demon or a witch is possessed by the Hollow, they will only be able to control it for a short time after which they fall victim to its insatiable hunger for more power, thus doing what ever it takes to attain more power and in return, take the powers of every magical creature in the magical community both good and evil and eventually destroy the world.
The Guardians of the Hollow are 2 high-ranking, powerful entities from both sides, an Angel and a Devil, who are tasked to watch over the Hollow which is eternally kept in its enchanted box in the Ancient Burial Ground. They appear to be thousands of years old as they were chosen to guard The Hollow as early as 3,500 years ago, as it has been agreed by both sides that it is forbidden for anyone to even visit the burial ground of The Hollow. After the guardians are killed, they later reformed.
The ground was covered in a thick layer of moss, giving the hollow an eerie, otherworldly glow. Strange, colorful herbs grew in abundance, their magical properties unknown to outsiders. Only the daring and the foolish ventured into Witch Hollow. Those who entered were met with an overwhelming sense of unease and an unshakable feeling that they were being watched. Legends spoke of travelers who had gone missing within the hollow, their fate forever sealed by the witches' dark magic. But amidst the tales of darkness and fear, there were also stories of those who sought out the witches of Witch Hollow for help and guidance. These brave souls believed that the witches' powers could be used for good, and that their ancient wisdom held the key to unlocking hidden truths. Those who approached the witches with pure intentions were met with both skepticism and curiosity. The witches would scrutinize their motives, searching for any hint of deception. If they found someone worthy, they would initiate them into their sacred circle, passing down their knowledge through generations. In Witch Hollow, the line between good and evil was blurred. The witches understood that power, in the wrong hands, could bring about destruction. They cherished their abilities and guarded their secrets fiercely, ensuring that only those who were deserving gained access to their sorcery. The sorcery of Witch Hollow remains a captivating and enigmatic tale that has captured the imaginations of many. It serves as a reminder that power, no matter how great, should be wielded with caution and respect. The witches of Witch Hollow are a testament to the incredible potential of magic, and the responsibility that comes with it..
