As Caster stood at the gas station, his heart pounding in his chest, he couldn't shake off the feeling of dread that had settled over him. The image of the fierce mama bear in room 4 haunted him, her growls still echoing in his ears. But he shook himself out of his trance and focused on getting help.The gas station attendant, a middle-aged man with a tired look in his eyes, listened to Caster's story with a mix of skepticism and concern. He could see the fear in Caster's eyes and the desperation in his voice, and he decided to call the local authorities. Within minutes, a team of wildlife experts and police officers arrived at the gas station, ready to handle the situation.
Caster led them back to the motel, his heart pounding in his chest as they approached room 4. But, to his surprise, the room was empty. There was no sign of the bears anywhere, no traces of their presence. Caster couldn't believe his eyes—had it all been a hallucination? A nightmare brought to life by his fear?The wildlife experts searched the room thoroughly but found no evidence of bears ever being there. Caster was starting to doubt his own sanity when one of the officers noticed something strange—scratch marks on the floor—leading to a hidden trap door in the corner of the room. Without hesitation, they opened it and descended into the darkness below.What they found sent shivers down their spines—a hidden underground tunnel leading deep into the woods surrounding the motel. The officers knew they had stumbled upon something sinister, something beyond their comprehension.As they explored the tunnel, they discovered a network of interconnected chambers, each one housing a different type of wild animal—bears, wolves, even a mountain lion. It was a makeshift underground zoo, run by a group of poachers who had been luring unsuspecting travelers into their trap for years.
Caster's blood ran cold as he realized the gravity of the situation. He had narrowly escaped a fate worse than death, thanks to his quick thinking and determination to survive. But as he looked into the eyes of the captured animals, their anger and pain reflecting his own, he knew that the nightmare was far from over. The real horror was just beginning.
