In the quiet town of Ashford, Minnesota, in 1965, life seemed ordinary?fishermen, farmers, and families who had lived on the land for generations. But when a fishing boat was found empty, an entire family disappeared overnight, and a young woman was found buried beneath a massive tree with strange symbols etched into her body, the town's quiet facade was shattered.
Ellie Harper, a tenacious investigative journalist, arrives to uncover the truth, accompanied by Sam Reynolds, a local man haunted by the forest's mysteries. Their search leads them deep into the Black Forest, where centuries-old tunnels conceal the secrets of a German immigrant cult dedicated to a mythical entity known as "The Keeper."
As Ellie and Sam confront the cult's followers, uncover ancient rituals, and navigate seemingly living tunnels, the line between reality and nightmare blurs. "The Keeper" is real?and waiting. Every shadow, every whisper, every root conceals a presence older and more terrifying than they could have imagined.
"The Black Forest" is a gripping psychological and supernatural thriller that weaves suspense, horror, and mystery into a terrifying tale of secrets, survival, and the ancient evil that lurks beneath the trees.
