The night was dark, the moon obscured by the thick layer of clouds. In a small town in the middle of nowhere a group of rowdy teenagers gathered around a bonfire blasting heavy metal music from their speakers. As the night wore on and the fire burned low, they decided to explore the nearby woods.

At first everything seemed normal but as they ventured deeper into the forest, they noticed a strange symbol etched into the trees. They couldn't quite make out what they meant but they had a feeling it wasn't good.

Suddenly the Sound of Music changed it became distorted almost demonic. Teens themselves tried to turn off the speakers but the music continued to play. One of the teens, Jake, tried kicking in one of the speakers with his foot as the look of fear painted his face. Just then they heard the faint sound of footsteps coming towards them. Heavy metallic footsteps like something out of a nightmare.

Panic set in as they ran but they were quickly surrounded by a group of shadowy figures next slide the figures were covered in tattoos piercings and their eyes glowing with an outwardly light. They were like something out of a heavy metal album cover come to life.

The teens tried to fight back using their instruments as weapons but there was no match for the creatures. One by one they fell to the ground, their screams silenced by the loud and intense music. The creature seemed to feed off the energy of the music, growing stronger and more sinister with each passing moment.

And then just as suddenly as it began it was over. The creatures disappeared into the darkness leaving behind only the echo of the music. The surviving teen stumbled out of the woods shaken and traumatized by what they encountered.

From that day on the town warned their children not to venture too far into the woods lest they meet the same fate as those teenagers that night. Every so often the sound of heavy metal music could be heard echoing in the breeze reminding them of the horrors that lay just beyond their doorstep.
