Whisperquill – the keeper of mysterious messages

How big is Whisperquill?

At Whimsey & Whiley, we measure storybook birds in the most wondrous ways. With her wings folded close against her body, Whisperquill measures from wingtip to wingtip - just the right size to hide inside a pumpkin leaf or balance elegantly atop a stack of straw. From beak tip to tail tip (without counting that mischievous crow’s beak), it’s exactly enough to leap through the night’s shadows, carry secrets on the wind, and conceal the most amusing messages between pumpkins and leaves. And from bottom to top of her head, Whisperquill stands just tall enough to look out over all of Halloween land and hear even the smallest dreams whispered before the sun comes up. Whisperquill is neither too big to carry a secret that only the wind knows, nor too small to hold the dreams the night is guarding. She’s exactly the sort of magical size to effortlessly transform even the tiniest note into the mightiest midnight mystery.

Who is Whisperquill?

With feathers as glossy as moonlit ink and eyes full of clever riddles, Whisperquill hops through Halloween land delivering secrets on the wind. Everywhere she goes, the soft rustle of her wings feels like pages turning in a midnight storybook.

Whisperquill is the keeper of mysterious messages -no secret is too strange, no tale too tangled for her curious mind. She loves to perch atop pumpkins and crunching leaves, listening to the hush of hidden dreams and laughing at shadowy jokes only crows can truly understand.

(Secret: If you write a wish on a slip of paper and leave it beneath a pumpkin, Whisperquill will find it by dawn—sometimes she even leaves a shiny feather behind as a thank you!)
