"Worse than the cawing of the crows was the hideous cry that had came from the grove at that moment. Almost like a wave, the house lights came on, one by one. In the streets outside, men were gathering, lanterns and pitchforks in hand and ready to rescue whoever was on the other side of the mist. I made myself available for the search and then we set off to look for the missing young man - who seemed to be a certain Jonas, a boy who was in his early twenties - but not without first hearing the story of his mother. She was crying and in a state of shock, screaming for everyone to hear as she yelled about the voices her son heard during the day and how the damn crows seemed interested in the boy."

BEWARE OF WHAT WATCHES FROM THE TREES Jackie just moved to Alder Grove, a small, dead-end town in the forests of Northern California. In hindsight, moving there based on an ad in a pamphlet from the 1980s was a bad idea, but it's not like Jackie would admit that. If she did she'd have to live up to the 'I told you so's' from her family. Instead, she has to find a way to make a living running the small bakery she opened in town. Despite the meager wages, the constant nagging loneliness, and the ancient house she lives in that desperately needs repairs, she's doing fine. Don't get her wrong, Jackie is a woman of science and doesn't believe in silly things like ghosts, but there is definitely something malicious living in the woods around her house. Whatever it is, it was dangerous enough to drive away the previous owner of her home and sell it for cheap. When she meets a group of occultists at a library in town while running errands, she discovers that her beliefs might be challenged by the truth about the town. Yes, there is definitely something in Alder Grove, and ever since she moved into that damned house in the woods, it has been watching her.
