Black Mountain National Park has always whispered of unspeakable things—livestock vanishing into the mist, townsfolk disappearing without a trace, only to resurface years later, changed or not at all. The Wahldrov family’s fate remains the most chilling: they vanished one night, leaving behind a silence that still haunts the town. Now, Cassian Wahldrov returns to the shadowed streets of Black Mountain, drawn by an inexplicable pull to the very place where his family was swallowed by the dark. As he digs into the town’s buried secrets, he uncovers a creeping horror that suggests the mountain isn’t just a place—it’s a predator with an insatiable appetite. And the weevils? They’re only the beginning of what crawls beneath the surface.
