The boreal forest is one of the last great wildernesses on Earth—millions of acres of spruce and pine stretching across the northern latitudes, where the silence can be as unnerving as the predators that stalk its shadows. For one mother and her two children, that silence was broken by something far worse than any wolf or bear.

What began as a quiet walk beneath the towering trees turned into a fight to keep calm, keep moving, and keep together… as they realized something was following them. Something massive. Something intelligent. Something that wasn’t supposed to exist.

When Ethan McCarthy and his wife buy their dream farmhouse in the countryside, the deal seems almost too good to be true. While his family stays in town, Ethan races against the clock to finish renovations before move-in day. But as the days drag on, strange signs appear — claw marks on porch posts, heavy footsteps circling the house, and eyes watching from the treeline. Each night, the torment escalates until Ethan realizes he’s not alone on the property. Something powerful, intelligent, and territorial calls the surrounding woods home.  

What begins as a renovation project quickly becomes a siege of fear. And one night, while resting in his recliner, Ethan discovers just how thin the line is between safety and horror — when the Dogman steps inside.

When seasoned woodsman Harlan Pike finds an injured, unfamiliar pup deep in the backcountry, he doesn’t realize he’s about to share his homestead with a young Dogman. As the weeks pass, he learns to feed and care for it, studying every strange behavior and uncanny instinct while it grows into a powerful, solitary guardian. But as Bow matures — his hump rising, mane forming, and senses sharpening — other eyes in the big woods begin to watch. In a place where Dogmen are known to live alone, the bond between man and creature becomes something rare, fragile, and fiercely protected.

Every seven years, the Griggs family reunites on their remote Appalachian farm—not for celebration, but survival. As the latest cycle approaches, generations of hardened relatives return to defend their own from a terrifying threat that’s stalked their bloodline for over a century: the Dogmen. With sharpened tactics and deadly intent, the creatures mount their most coordinated assault yet. But this family’s roots run deep—and they don’t bend easy. In this chilling story of grit, loss, and resilience, blood will be spilled... but not without a fight.

After escaping Fort Lewis, the genetically-engineered Dogman known as D-128 resurfaces in the vast wilderness of Mount Rainier National Park—triggering a string of brutal killings that leave local authorities baffled and the government scrambling to contain the truth. But when Rick Jamison, D-128’s former handler, is sent in alone, he discovers something far worse: D-128 isn’t the only one out there. As signs of a second, more feral Dogman begin to surface, Rick realizes D-128 may not be hunting humans—he may be enforcing a boundary. And what lies beyond that boundary could tip the balance between control and chaos.

Army sniper trainee Cole Myles is sent on a solo reconnaissance mission deep into the remote wilds of Fort Polk. Tasked with navigating rugged terrain and avoiding detection, he soon realizes he’s not alone. As he pushes deeper into the forest, Cole discovers he’s being watched—and not by other soldiers. A pack of Dogmen begins tracking his every move, displaying a level of coordination and restraint that defies animal behavior. Tested on every level—mental, physical, and psychological—Cole must rely on his training to survive a game he never signed up to play, and come to terms with a truth the Army never prepared him for.

When hikers begin vanishing in the deep wilderness of Adirondack Park, the pattern is too precise to ignore. As sightings of a towering, wolf-like creature begin to surface, a special operations team is quietly sent in to handle the situation. But what they find in the forest isn’t just a predator—it’s something worse. Something hunting on its own terms. It’s not protecting territory. It’s not feeding. It’s choosing. And it’s not done yet.

In the quiet hills just outside Nashville, a string of terrifying encounters unfold deep within Beaman Park. Hikers, runners, and even a young family each cross paths with something they can’t explain—a towering creature that doesn't attack, but stalks, intimidates, and terrifies with brutal precision. Every sighting takes place within hours, and before anyone can speak out, the park is abruptly shut down. The official reason? “Maintenance.” But the truth never made it past the trees.

Deep beneath the forests of Fort Lewis Army Base, a covert government program has engineered something unprecedented—a genetically manipulated apex predator, trained from birth and bonded to a single handler. But when the most intelligent and feared subject in the program, D-128, is brought into the field for live testing, he vanishes without a trace. What begins as a controlled experiment quickly spirals into a manhunt across the remote wilderness, where the line between hunter and hunted blurs—and the government learns too late that you can’t cage something born to outthink you. 

Now, D-128 is free. And he’s not just surviving... he’s planning.

When a father honors the promise he made to his ten-year-old son—to take him on his first deer hunt—he leads them deep into a remote part of the Daniel Boone National Forest. But what was supposed to be a day of bonding and tradition quickly spirals into a nightmare when they realize something is watching them from the shadows. Something cunning. Something powerful. And it’s not there by accident. Cut off from help and hunted through the wilderness, the two must rely on each other—and every ounce of instinct they have—to survive a relentless predator that refuses to let them go.
