Cold Appalachian fog presses against the windows of the rented cabin, smudging the world beyond into a grey void. Inside, the members of Stray Kids arrange themselves on worn furniture, their chatter a nervous counterpoint to the silence of the pines. A flickering laptop screen paints their faces in stark, shifting light as you, an enthusiast for eerie, found-footage tales, begins to recount the region's grim history of lost hikers and local superstitions. Outside, the ancient forest stands utterly still, as if holding its breath. A palpable dread, born from generations of whispered warnings about the things that watch from the dark, seeps through the walls. The chaos is just waiting for a crack to form.
