The tide that takes

In a quiet coastal town haunted by whispers of strange disappearances, the ocean is more than a serene escape-it's a predator. Locals speak of a cursed tide that comes with no warning, pulling the unsuspecting into the depths, never to be seen again. Some say it carries the voices of the lost, calling out for help, luring others to their doom. When a skeptical newcomer begins investigating the eerie legend, they uncover a chilling truth: the tide isn't just water-it's alive, sentient, and driven by a hunger that grows with every soul it claims.
