They’re in The Woods

A quiet camping trip at Belton Lake was supposed to mean a few days away from work, people, and everything else. Then the tent got picked up and thrown into the lake. After that, things got worse. A shattered windshield. A boulder in the driver’s seat. A deer stuffed into a cooler. Trees blocking every way out. Massive footprints. Strange circles of rocks. And something in the woods that isn’t just following them. It’s watching. It’s thinking. And it wants something back. Years later, an unnamed stranger tells the story the only way he knows how—with profanity, bad decisions, dark humor, and the occasional argument with whoever happens to be listening. But the deeper he gets into the story, the harder it becomes to laugh. Because whatever was waiting in those Central Texas woods was big enough to tear a man apart... and smart enough to choose when not to. They’re in the Woods is a fast, foul-mouthed horror novella from J.D. Melton and the second story in the Strangers series, where every stranger has a story—and some of them probably should have kept their mouths shut.
