  • Summary

  • After their great-grandmother’s passing, a family moves into her secluded home on 180 acres of overgrown land. While exploring the property, two brothers stumble upon an abandoned cabin hidden deep in the woods—one that was never meant to be found. What begins as childhood curiosity quickly turns into a nightmare that follows them back home. Over the years, they experience unexplainable encounters, eerie whispers, and the presence of something that refuses to be forgotten. As they uncover the dark history of the land, they realize the reason their family left it behind… and why they may never truly escape it.

The Smiling Man From The Woods

This was a story that made me sad to hear because her parents didn’t believe her for a long time. Dealing with the paranormal is not anything to be taken lightly. One never knows what spirits or demons are causing problems for humans. Thank you for sharing.
I truly hope that you find peace from that entity one day. Praying for you.
