Good point.

My belief that he'd absorb the power of the combined thousands of sacrifices the Red Court performed to power the Blood Line curse would be a mini Dark Hallow. He'd get a lot of power from it, but it wouldn't be a proper Dark Hallow that makes you a dark god. Remember it's supposed to be something on par with becoming a Winter Knight and it's benefits. Halloween wouldn't be a requirement under these circumstances.

Im still pretty well convinced that only the spirits and mortals were in danger, not the immortals like the Erlking himself; all the descriptions have it being direct to the interplay of the human spirits and the human Life Energy being sucked out, afaict. The erlkings presence was there to use the hunt to stir up more and older ghosts (using the exhibit CT had gathered to get the spirits in the area). Besides, if the Darkhallow had put the Erlking in danger, wouldnt that have negated the Erlkings beef with Harry, or at least attracted the Hunt's attention enough for them to have joined Sue in some Zombie stomping?

I don't agree but that's just me

Ya, I've never been able to pull together enough evidence to definitely prove it (though I thought some of the CD revelations supported it), so it's still just another theory.

The way I understood it that he'd consume the Erlking, and the hunt along with ghosts, and all the people who died as a result. Swallowing a lot of ghosts would make you really powerful, but Mab describing him as a dark god the likes of which had never been witnessed by humans gave me the impression he'd probably be on par with Mab, if not more powerful... I don't think ghosts alone could do that.
