Four campers are hunted by intelligent cryptid creatures deep within an isolated forest.
Something is waiting in the woods.
Blake hoped the camping trip would fix what real life couldn’t.
Years of infertility treatments and emotional distance have begun tearing apart his relationship with Jessica. Hoping to reconnect, they join their longtime friends, Kyle and Norah, for a weekend deep in the wilderness.
What begins as a quiet escape quickly descends into terror as strange sounds echo through the trees and unseen figures move beyond the firelight. When the group realizes they are being hunted by intelligent cryptid creatures lurking deep within the forest, survival becomes their only goal.
As paranoia, grief, and violence consume the group, Blake is forced to confront a horrifying truth tied to his childhood and the nightmare his family convinced him never happened.
Blending creature horror with psychological suspense and emotional drama, CRYPTID explores survival, trauma, resilience, and the terrifying realization that humanity is not alone in the wilderness.
Perfect for readers of atmospheric horror, survival horror, and creature features where the greatest threat may be both the monsters in the woods and the fears we carry within ourselves.
