In the isolated, snow-buried village of White Pines, winter is not merely a season-it's a suffocating force that brings both cold and fear. As the bitter winds howl through the forest, a series of violent deaths sends shockwaves through the tight-knit community. The bodies are mutilated, torn apart by what appears to be an animal-but the villagers know better. Rumors swirl about the Wendigo, an ancient legend passed down through generations, a creature born of desperation and hunger, lurking in the frozen woods.

A group of seasoned hunters, led by the grizzled but respected Elias Conroy, bands together to track and kill whatever is hunting their people. But as they venture deeper into the wilderness, they make a horrifying discovery: the Wendigo isn't a creature of myth, but something far more real-and far more terrifying. It's not just hunting them; it's infecting them. The twisted remains of their friends and neighbors reveal a monstrous truth: once the Wendigo touches you, you become it.

The hunters, once brothers-in-arms, begin to turn on one another as paranoia sets in. Anyone could be next. As the lines between human and monster blur, trust disintegrates, and survival becomes a harrowing, personal struggle. In the brutal cold, with no help coming, they must face the terrifying reality that the Wendigo may not just be among them-it may already be them.

Ghost in the Shadows by Aabiinrtt2009

When I first met him, he was feral-like a smart Neanderthal. He blended with the Oregon forest like the predator himself, but at least this one, you could look at. I was just trying to get justice for my friend, chasing a story that felt too important to ignore. But instead of answers, I found Aaron Hallam. I nearly died protecting him in my own home, and when I thought he was gone for good-erased by LT, I threw it all away. Moved back to New York. Tried to start over. Then, just when I thought I'd left it behind, I ended up on a blind date with a predator of a different kind. I almost became another missing girl, trafficked and forgotten. But Aaron-the supposedly dead fugitive-came back like a ghost, slashing the bastard up before he could lay a hand on me. Now I'm stuck with him again. And honestly? I'm good right here.

The House That Whispers by beingillusionist

It wasn't supposed to be a rescue. It wasn't even supposed to be real. A drunken dare. A reckless chase. A twisted game. Harry and his friends entered the house with one thought-to take what wasn't theirs. But the moment they crossed the threshold, the game turned against them. The doors locked. The walls shifted. Their desires became chains, their laughter swallowed by silence. At first, they thought it was a man-a monster lurking in the dark, toying with them. But the deeper they went, the more the truth clawed at their sanity. The house was alive. And it wanted them to suffer. Time unraveled. Lust turned to regret. Hunger turned to madness. Their mistakes tightened like a noose, and soon, Harry found himself losing more than just his way. He was losing them. And the house was still watching. Because no one leaves until it is done with them. The House That Whispers
