Blackwood Gorge looks like paradise on a postcard—towering firs, crystal streams, and endless trails. But beneath the beauty lies something older than legend, something that’s been watching the woods for longer than humans have walked them. For years, hikers have vanished here, leaving behind only impossible clues: backpacks hanging twenty feet up in the trees, footprints far too large to belong to any man, and wood knocks that echo like warnings in the dark.

This is the story of The Huntsman—a serial killer who believed the wilderness would hide his crimes. But Blackwood Gorge was already claimed by another predator, one that knows the difference between the innocent and the guilty. As the body count grows and desperation sets in, the hunter becomes the hunted, and the forest delivers justice in the only way it knows how: primal, ancient, and merciless.


⚠️ Listener Warning: This story contains graphic descriptions of violence, murder, psychological terror, and death. It deals with predatory behavior and with forms of justice that exist outside human law. There are scenes of intense fear, bodily harm, and primal horror that may be deeply disturbing to some listeners. This content is absolutely not suitable for younger listeners. If you have children nearby, please use headphones or save this for another time. If you’re sensitive to descriptions of violence or death—or if you’re listening alone in an isolated place—you may want to consider whether this is the right story for you tonight. Listener discretion is strongly advised.
