The Animal. This item is unavailable.The Animal

It came from the forest one night.

In the light of a full moon, it slaughtered seventeen people in their homes, leaving nothing but death in its path. Only one person saw its true face and survived, an eight-year-old girl named Riley found hiding underneath her bed, covered in blood, scared of a monster.

Now, twenty-five years later, it's happening again. A young girl is attacked in her home, forced to watch as her friends are slaughtered before her eyes by a monster wearing the mask of a wolf.

Or at least, she prayed it was a mask.

As the body count rises and the predator grows more violent, Riley is drawn back into the nightmare, forced to confront the horrifying monster she first witnessed all those years ago, surrounded by friends she cannot trust, and wolves she cannot see.

A scarred survivor, a group of hunted teenagers, and a sprawling forest full of wolves are brought together in this terrifying slasher, where only one thing is known for certain.

The Animal has returned, and everyone's a suspect.
