The Whispers of Ardenwood

On a silent night in a forgotten Belgian town, 14-year-old Leo wakes to the sound of whispering. Outside his window, shadowy figures sit in a perfect circle on his lawn, their ritual cloaked in darkness. When a light flicks on, they all turn, revealing cold, empty eyes that stare directly into his soul. They were not just passing through; they were waiting. Now, the whispers are calling his name from the ancient forest that borders his home, a forest with secrets bound to his bloodline. Leo must uncover the terrifying truth before he becomes the next offering to the things that wait in the woods.
