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
