An abandoned campsite. Torn tents. People missing. Bigfoot in the area.
Are they necessarily connected?
Mason thinks so. He and two friends spent a harrowing night in the Wayne national Forest in Ohio back in his college days. They found the abandoned camp with slashed tents, personal items and car keys left inside and missing people in a non-designated campsite. Before they could make it out of the forest, they were shadowed, circled and followed by what Mason says could have only been a bigfoot.
With one of them injured and night closing in too fast, they find themselves forced to make camp when and where they didn’t want to.
And bigfoot was never far away. He stayed all night, circling, not letting them leave, a shadow visible by the light of the rising moon, comes close again and again, touching the tent, pushing on the nylon fabric. It sniffs their scent, breathing in deeply.
At first light, they made it out. At the ranger station they were simply told that people disappear all the time. But do they? Or is there something else going on?
