The Carnival Street: A Halloween Adventure (2023)
Comic, Original Story 

"For Billie,  a Halloween parade is not as exciting as following a mysterious running doll. While helping the creature causes more trouble than expected, Billie is undeterred from her quest of trying to fix it. "

THE CARNIVAL STREET is a story created as a comic/storyboard and  follows something close to dream logic. The aesthetic of the characters is directly based on the Edwardian era, British turn of the century right before WW1 and the postcards from said time.
