The Harvesting Gloom

The Harvesting Gloom is an ancient and malevolent entity that resides in a forsaken orchard known as the "Grove of Despair." It appears as a grotesque, emaciated figure with elongated limbs and skeletal fingers. Its face is a featureless mask of decay, and its hollow eyes gleam with a sickly, otherworldly light.
This eerie orchard is shrouded in perpetual darkness, as if the sun refuses to cast its light upon this cursed land. The gnarled trees in the grove bear twisted, malformed fruit that radiates an aura of dread. Those who wander into the grove are overcome by an overwhelming sense of hopelessness and impending doom.
The Harvesting Gloom awakens during moonless nights, venturing out to harvest the nightmares and fears of those who sleep nearby. It uses its twisted, bony fingers to pluck these night terrors like rotten fruit, sowing chaos and despair among its victims. Those subjected to the Harvesting Gloom's touch awaken with crippling fear, their nightmares haunting them even in the waking world.
The fruit of the trees within the Grove of Despair is a source of torment. When consumed, it causes vivid, nightmarish visions that blur the line between dreams and reality, driving those who partake in it to the brink of madness.
The Harvesting Gloom is not content with tormenting individuals for a single night. It returns to its victims repeatedly, intensifying their despair with each visit until they are consumed by dread. It is believed that the Gloom feeds on the terror and anguish it elicits, growing more powerful with each cycle.
