This special Halloween Edition of the Hidden Portal series is the sixth piece in the collection. The "Hidden Portal" Series explores where the outdoors and science fiction intersect. This is the first time we get a look at the face of what may live within the portal.

To accompany the drop of this NFT, I have written a short "ghost" story on ntvli.com. You can view it here - https://www.ntvli.com/ntvblog/2021/10/28/ntvli-halloween-stories-hidden-portals-appearing-around-the-tri-state-area-debut-of-latest-hidden-portal-nft

Excerpt from the short story: Tristate Area: Over the past few months, hikers and wildlife photographers throughout the region have been making claims of strange ‘portal like’ encounters while enjoying the outdoors. The common thread throughout each story seems to be the appearance of a rotating green triangle inside of a purple circle that appears out of nowhere. Almost every tale being told in this regard seems to mention a ‘warping’ of reality as these ‘portals’ expand before disappearing completely. While the idea of hidden portals deep in the woods may seem outlandish, there are several instances of video footage that support the claims.

There have been over one hundred instances of people experiencing this phenomena since the spring. For the purpose of getting to the bottom of what this could all mean, we attempted to reach out to government officials. Unfortunately, we were told that no official statement would be made at this time and, while they’re looking into the validity of the footage available, their initial feeling is that it is all part of an internet hoax being carried out by science fiction enthusiasts.

We were able to track down several of the individuals who have posted footage in order to get a first hand account of their experience.
