Often looked at as the safe haven of Terrarias Hardmode you can't deny the Hallow isn't iconic. Even making it's way onto the cover art on the old-generation console boxart at one point. It always has this fun feeling to it. It's quirky suprise elements and strange feeling always made it stand out. It is supposed to be the direct opposite to the Crimson and Corruption biomes, being evil but Hallow being the safe zone from them and a breather. Considering Hallow blocks the spread of evil Biomes on most overworld blocks.
One thing I have never really focused on much in Terraria was it's atmosphere. But it always had this feeling of You vs. The World. You were alone, but even if you had a village that didn't exuse the fact that any type of evil, being biomes, enemies, or bosses, always have an effect on the player and feel like they want to kill you was always excellent and remarkable. And I feel like the Hallow would be the one time this feeling wasn't present, but the strange thing is it strangely feels maybe the most grim or grimorse out of most of the biomes, which seems ironic. But if there is one thing Terraria and plenty of other games make obvious, it's when a feeling of safety is never safe itself.
Previously mentioned the Hallowed Biome has loads of quirky situations. Like fighting these quick and sparatic unicorns that want to kill the player, or these pixies or snail UFO things. It always left a long-lasting impression on me and most people who played Terraria and got to Hardmode. Just when you think you are safe, no you are not. Visuals are very offputting aswell seeming more strange than most biomes in Terraria. A pale-white desert, a blue and colorful forest, a rock purple crystal cave are all unsettling as much as they look amazing. They set up a majestic atmosphere while being unsure of itself.
In the underground much like the evil biomes it's like a parasite or virus disguised as something you enjoy. Slimes, bats, and whatnot are now coated in this bright pink. While Chaos elementals run around like sparatic players, and even have basic movement options like players. But can teleport ruthlessly. Seeing underground hallow after seeing the friendly atmosphere of the new biome is an experience that can't be recreated from an atmosphere standpoint to a gameplay standpoint.
Point is, the Hallow all around has a grimorse atmosphere to it. It's quirkiness and suprises aswell as offputting graphics, and unsettling enemies makes an incredibly unforgettable experience with a very dangerous feeling added onto it. It always felt off somehow with it's own unique feeling.
