Hetaween-event-2022 - Tumblr Posts
having seen that there is not currently a hetaween/halloween event being organised (at least, not one we can find?) we've decided to see if it's something that creators would be interested in for this year!
so, we've created a lil' survey! you can let us know 1) if you'd consider participating, 2) how you would want the event structured, and 3) what sorts of prompts you'd like to see! click here to complete the form - it should take no more than a minute! đ§Ą
we're aiming to leave this survey open until the middle of next week. depending on the responses we get, that means prompts could be released by the weekend!
we want everyone to enjoy creating and sharing their work for this event, so if you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to hop into our inbox! just pls bear with us, this is our first time organising an event and there's lots to learn haha.. đ
please reblog & spread the word!

Prompt fairytales for @hetaween-event-2022, but I started the sketch for the prompt mermaid for @pruktober.
The horror of drawing backgrounds...
She is done with him hiding out inside his basement, doing whatever. Francine is going to drag Arthur out of that house so he can get some sunlight. He's pale enough as it is, really.
Prompt Magic & spells for @hetaween-event-2022, but I started the drawing for the prompt magic from the last @aphfrukweek event.
Prompts haunted house & "What are you afraid of?" for @hetaween-event-2022
He was not about to run to his older siblings, he refused to. Henri was his own independent person. A few strange noises in some foreign hotel would not scare him. So what if the building was old. At his age, not that many buildings were older than him.
There had been that odd feeling about this recently renovated hotel that had him feeling off since the moment stepped inside of it and that feeling had only grown stronger the longer he remained there. Almost succeeding in falling asleep, the small nation was quickly awakened by a sharp and loud noise.
Sitting upright nearly immediately, the blond turned on the light but saw nothing in his room. Hearing the sound again yet seeing nothing, he threw the blanket off of himself. The only things he grabbed on his way out were his phone and his key card.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Making his way down the hall quickly, mainly to put distance between himself and his room, he found himself in front of his sisterâs door. He didnât want to knock and wake up Emma up in the middle of the night because he heard some noises in his room, but he couldnât wander the hall all night in his pyjamas and he certainly wasnât going back to that room alone.
So he knocked on the door. There was no reaction and he knocked again, harder this time. Believing the sound had gone unnoticed by his sleeping sister, he was about to knock on the door again just as Emma opened the door. âWhatâs wrong? Why are you still awake?â she asked him, not sounding like she had been sleeping at all.
Against his better judgment, still standing out in the hall, he blurted out âI canât stand the sounds in my room.â His sister nodded in understanding and stepped aside to let him into her room.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Once inside he noticed some Halloween movie was playing on the television and how loud the volume was. No wonder his sister hadnât opened the door sooner. Emma was already settled on the couch the room offered, where she had obviously been sitting before. She was eating some popcorn and held out the bowl to him, while staring straight at the screen and clearly doing her best to ignore all the small sounds that could be heard in the room.
Not knowing what else to do, he took some of the popcorn and turned the sound up just a little more.
Neither mentioned it, until they heard an unearthly noise. Emma grabbed hold of her little brother and they ran out of her room and towards their big brotherâs room, a floor above theirs and on the other side of the hotel.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The rapid and urgent sounding knocking on his door roused him from his well earned sleep. He tried to ignore it but the noise wouldnât allow him to fall asleep again. Throwing the covers of him he walked to the door of his hotel room and threw it wide open.
Ready to throw insults at however was disturbing his sleep, he saw his brother and sister huddled together. Seeing the fear on their faces he quickly ushered them inside. âWhat happened?â He asked as he shut the door.
âYouâre not going to like this answer.â Emma said silently while Henri looked at him with those begging, hopeful eyes.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
She was right and he didnât like their answer. They had awoken him because they were scared of the noises. They were grown, independent nations. Their fear of some noises should have annoyed him, instead the look on their faces had worried him. There simply were a lot of noises in this building. It might have been renovated recently, but it seemed it hadnât been the greatest renovating.
That is how the Benelux siblings had somehow ended up trying to sleep in one bed. It was a large bed, but it wasnât easy to fit all of them on it.
So he held both of his siblings close and waited for them to fall asleep, before going back to sleep himself.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A sudden and loud knocking that seemed to come from the roomâs ceiling startled all of them awake. Their frightened looks angered him and he stormed to his door and threw it open.
No one.
Stepping out of his room he looked around the hallway but still didnât see anyone and with the layout of this place they couldnât have been fast enough to be out of sight already. Alright, so no one had been knocking on his door. Going back inside, he picked up the phone to make the hotel staff get whoever had the room above him stay quiet.
He would have walked up there himself, but he didnât want to leave Emma and Henri alone. Also, the woman minding the phone had told him he would have been standing in front of the door to an empty room.
Empty room. No one staying there. Okay. He wasnât going to share that information.
He went back to bed and waited for them to fall asleep again.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Loud noises coming from the wall nearest to the bed woke them all up. He was about to stalk off to the room next door before remembering the was a closet next to his room. How could he forget, he had a friendly conversation with the lady from room cleaning while she had collected some things from that exact closet.
Silencing the hushed whispers of his siblings, he got out of bed and walked over to the desk and wrote down something on a piece of paper.
Opening his door, he stuck the note on the other side and shut the door again.
Once back in the bed he gathered his family in his arms and told them to go back to sleep, leaving no room for arguments.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Next morning found Henri smiling at his brother after he showed him the sign.
Next morning found Emma sighing at him after she read what he had written down.
âReally Johan, you told whatever was making that noise it had to pay toll before getting inside your room?â
