Cabin Fever

In the wake of their college graduation, five friends set out for a weekend getaway in a remote cabin nestled deep within the Alabama woods. What begins as a celebratory escape—filled with late‑night chats, laughter around a fire, and the promise of freedom—quickly darkens as the isolated landscape reveals its own unsettling silence. The isolated cabin becomes a pressure cooker for unease, its creaking timber and surrounding forest hinting at both natural beauty and hidden menace. The tone is a blend of rustic charm and creeping dread, a place where the line between carefree camaraderie and primal fear begins to blur.

Among the group, * Jeff * is the easy‑going one, often steering the mood with jokes and a laid‑back attitude. * Marcy * balances the dynamic with sharp wit and a hint of skepticism, while * Paul * brings a steady, protective presence that holds the others together. * Karen * adds emotional depth, her curiosity and empathy drawing out the group’s hidden tensions. * Bert * rounds out the quintet with a more restless energy, constantly probing the surrounding woods and testing the limits of their safety. Their varied personalities create a lively, interwoven tapestry of friendship that feels both believable and ripe for conflict when the ordinary slips into the extraordinary.

As night falls, subtle signs of something wrong begin to surface—a strange odor in the air, an unnatural stillness in the trees, an unexplained chill that gnaws at the edges of their celebration. The isolation that once promised peace now feels oppressive, and the friends sense an invisible threat seeping into their sanctuary. The atmosphere shifts from light‑hearted revelry to a tense, almost palpable anxiety, setting the stage for a test of loyalty, resourcefulness, and survival instincts.

Trapped by the unforgiving wilderness and cut off from any help, the group must confront an unseen contagion that threatens to unravel both their bodies and their bonds. With the cabin as their only refuge, they are forced to navigate the terrifying unknown, relying on their wits, courage, and the fragile trust that once defined their friendship. The story hovers on the edge of horror and human drama, promising a relentless, claustrophobic battle against a menace that spreads silently, leaving the friends to wonder if they can survive long enough to uncover its source.
