That Thing in the Woods

Six friends venture into a decaying woodland for a camping trip, unaware that something immortal hunts within its boundaries. As night unfolds, their confidence crumbles, secrets emerge, and survival becomes their only priority.

The Survivors

Ryan Mitchell (18) is the former bully struggling to earn redemption.

Ethan Brooks (20) is the quiet strategist whose gaming knowledge becomes useful when the group must evade their hunter.

Maya Bennett (24) struggles with suicidal thoughts and a dangerous indifference towards her own survival. The creature’s usual fear tactics have little effect on her, but she remains vulnerable.

Chloe Hayes (19) is resourceful, using the forest’s terrain and whatever materials she can find to delay the creature.

Dylan Parker (19) is the arrogant first victim whose disappearance transforms the camping trip into a fight for survival.

The Outsider

Somewhere deeper in the forest lives a mysterious 32-year-old woman who has survived the creature for years. She watches from a distance and knows the woodland better than anyone. The creature refuses to attack her, but the reason remains unknown.

The Thing in the Woods

An immortal, superhumanly strong, relentlessly regenerating, nonverbal entity. Its face is permanently exposed and deformed. It cannot be permanently killed, but its heavy, painfully slow movements give its victims opportunities to escape.

It toys with those who enter its territory, using silence, unsettling gestures, and cruel tricks to turn their fear into entertainment. It never speaks, whispers, or laughs aloud.

It cannot cross the forest’s outer boundary. Escape is possible—but only if the group can find the way out before the woods claim them.

The Truth Of The Woods

Every character has secrets. Every decision has consequences. Forgiveness must be earned, trust can be dangerous, and not everyone will make it out.

The forest is watching. The question is whether you can survive it.
