When the woods call, will you answer?

Hope and her friends thought the stories were just old warnings—tales meant to keep curious kids from wandering too far. But when they step past the tree line, they discover something far more sinister than they imagined. The forest is alive, and it doesn’t want them to leave.

As whispers surround them and paths vanish behind their steps, time itself begins to twist. Friends disappear. Shadows stretch in impossible ways. The deeper they go, the more the woods seem to know who they are, and what they fear.

To escape, Hope must uncover the forest’s secrets before it takes everything from her… including herself.

This is a standalone novelette in The Haunted Chronicles series. Each story is written for young listeners and can be enjoyed in any order!

Blackwood wastes no time building dread. A group of young people camp in woods locals clearly want nothing to do with, but the execution is what makes it stick. The early warning signs are subtle and effective: no birdsong, air that feels wrong, a silence so complete it stops feeling natural. What follows is where the book really earns its horror. The forest doesn’t chase them. It rearranges itself. Paths vanish, trees seem to lean closer, and that creeping feeling of being watched never lets up.

The forest is alive

it really manages to creep you out right from the start. The whole idea of a forest that changes shapes and throws your own fears back at you gave me total goosebumps. Hope was a great main character to follow, and the narrator did a fantastic job keeping the tension up the entire time. It definitely left me wanting to check out the rest of The Haunted Chronicles.

This was fun

I grabbed this audiobook for a road trip with my 11-year-old, and we both ended up totally hooked. It’s just over an hour long, so it’s the perfect length to keep a kid's attention without dragging. The story is genuinely spooky and super atmospheric, but totally age-appropriate for middle-grade readers who like scary stuff. I also love that it comes with a companion website with games and discussion questions I'm actually planning to recommend it to my son's English teacher for a Halloween read. Highly recommend!
