MONSTERS: WITHIN THE TREES
( book 1 of the Monsters series & part of the Oakridge Chronicles )
In the woods of Oakridge, hikers are disappearing left and right—even more so than usual. After much careful deducing, Evan Novak is positive that the locations where the vanishings occur follow a pattern, but when he sets out one night to see for himself, he doesn’t return from those woods. The last thing he does before seemingly blipping from existence is send a garbled voicemail to his best friend—his emergency contact.
Day Jha wants to get through high school with minimal mayhem. From elementary school, he’s been a wallflower, blending in with the crowd—and he prefers it that way. In a town like Oakridge, where strange things are the norm, Day prides himself on being truly mundane. But when his best friend goes missing, and his only lead is a voicemail with nary a voice, the beginning of his freshman year is made up of poking into the odd history of his small town and unearthing disconcerting instances from its places, its people, and even himself.
Day wants to be a typical high schooler. He wants to be on the swim team, even if one of its co-captains has a big head. He wants to go out with the new girl, Artie. He wants to slip by as he had in middle school—but mostly, he wants to do all that with his best friend by his side. But where on Earth is Evan, and what really is lurking in those woods?
There’s only one thing to do: see for himself. They’re just trees; it’s not like the legends, the tales, the monsters that have always surrounded their town are real, right?
( coming January 2026 or beginning of February 2026 )
(inspired by: teen wolf, stranger things vibes (ive only watched till s2 dgdgd but adding the stranger things soundtrack to this series' playlist was one of the best ideas i had), and applachian lore/aesthetics)
(aka the original revamp version of my post-canon teen wolf fic draft that totally spiraled into smth different which im so here for jfkdhjkfdh)
the fact that my aspirations/ambitions can go from 0-100 in a second like wtfff lmaooo
like picking back up worldbuilding a low fantasy world on the dl & one of my initial inspos for it was a few months ago as a side-eye to jkr after hearing news abt her opinions one too many times, and to show that it isnt hard to make an intricate (low fantasy) magical world without being a major btch and ruining your own franchise by having hate in your works and outside of it (and then i ended up using this to turn a handful of my fic drafts into original ideas, which im now vibing with more than i ever had with their fic versions lmaooo love when that happens)
