Announcing the Scarlet Hollow Episode 3 Fan Art Competition

Hey folks!

Now that Episode 3 has been out for a few days, we figured it was time to announce the next Scarlet Hollow fan art competition!

Here's how it's gonna work:



Post original fan art, memes, or fanfic to either Twitter (using #scarlethollow) or /r/scarlethollow, (or AO3 if you're in the fanfic bucket)

The more entries we get, the more community rewards we get. For now, there are three tiers of rewards.


  1. At 10 entries, we'll do an in character Q&A where you can ask characters from our game questions, and get in character (albeit spoiler-free) answers!
  2. At 25 entries, we'll do a livestream where we take (and draw) your monster requests!
  3. And the grand prize — with 50 entries the team will do a MARATHON livestream where we play through all three currently released episodes back to back and showing off a bunch of little-known paths and secrets buried in the game!


Because memes are easier to crank out than art and fanfic, those entries will only count towards at most half of a given goal. For instance, if we get 20 meme submissions, they'd count as 5 submissions for the character Q&A, 12 submissions for the art livestream, and as a full 20 for the Scarlet Hollow marathon Stream.

If you want to enter but don't use twitter or reddit, you can either share your art on the #fan-art channel on our Discord, or send it to us via email (tony@blacktabbygames.com) and give us permission to share it on social!

Happy art times!
Tony and Abby
