The woods near my house growing up always held an air of mystery to me. It was a beautiful, yet haunting place that seemed filled to the brim with magic and wonder, both good and evil. This short essay is just a small juxtaposition of my memories of the forest; one memory in the late fall and another in the spring.

But one halloween, we didn't listen- Me and four boys. We broke the rules and we paid the price. We barely made it out alive and now we live with the trauma, the nightmares, the memories. Seven years later, the events of that night, like most things tend to do around here, have come back to haunt us. We never talked about the night we ran in the forest, never spoke afterwards at all really, but now we're going to need each other if we're going to survive what's coming. Me and those boys I've loved all along. - - ‐ - - - - - - - - - - - - - Our town is haunted. The five of us are cursed. And Halloween is just around the corner... Let's see who makes it to November 1st.
What Lies Beyond.
A group of teenagers wander into a forest for what they assumed was going to be the summer of their life, little did they know how unprepared they were for the things to come. (I'm horrible at descriptions) Content and Trigger Warning⚠️: This story will contain scenes with Blood, Gore and Violence, if you're not fine with stuff like this, I suggest you turn back. This is also one of the first stories I'm writing of this genre, do not expect to be blown away, my writing is not remarkable, I do this purely because I had an idea in mind. This story also heavily takes inspirations from many movies, expect to find some similarities.Complete
