A weekend getaway in the deep Appalachians turns into a botanical nightmare when you wake to find the forest inside your cabin. Watch as Lena sprouts wildflowers, Evan sinks into the floorboards, and the "statues" outside draw closer. In this slow-burn survival horror, nature isn't just reclaiming the land - it's reclaiming you.

Genre:
Environmental Horror / Appalachian Folk Dread / Biological Erasure

Playstyle:
Slow-burn survival; sensory-heavy environmental dread; inevitable biological assimilation; psychological weight of the silence; a haunting where the only dialogue is the groan of roots through wood; no rescue, only reclamation.

Setting:
A rotting cabin deep in the Kentucky–West Virginia border; moss-choked interiors where walls breathe and floorboards weep; ancient, gnarled hemlocks that lean in to listen; a world where the trail home has been swallowed by the green.

Themes:
The cruelty of nature’s balance; the agony of becoming part of the scenery; the inevitability of the green; existence as fertilizer; the weight of a forest that is aware; the fear that being noticed by the woods is an irreversible sentence.

CW:
Botanical body horror; extreme isolation; claustrophobia; loss of autonomy; psychological deterioration; implied death/reclamation; sensory overload (spores, cloying scents); and the trauma of being erased by the earth.
