Wolf Man

In the shadowed woods of rural Oregon, Blake returns to a childhood home that has been waiting for him ever since his father vanished without a trace. The house, perched on the edge of an expansive forest, feels both like a relic of a past he never fully understood and a promise of escape from the relentless grind of San Francisco life. The loss of his father, whose absence has always been a quiet ache, looms over the property like a half‑remembered myth, granting the land an unsettling, almost reverent atmosphere.

Seeking a fresh start, Blake convinces his ambitious wife, Charlotte, to join him on a weekend trip that could mend the fraying threads of their marriage. Their young daughter, Ginger, adds a fragile innocence to the trio, turning the remote cabin into a tentative sanctuary where family bonds can be reforged. The couple’s strained communication and unspoken grievances surface beneath the veneer of hopeful retreat, setting a tone that is as much about inner turbulence as it is about the looming wilderness.

The Oregon forest itself becomes a character, its towering evergreens and mist‑cloaked valleys whispering of old legends and quiet dangers. Locals speak in hushed tones about a mysterious illness that has occasionally brushed the wildlife, and a fleeting glimpse of an unknown creature has been recorded through a hunter’s scope decades ago. This ambience of latent menace is felt more in the rustle of leaves and the distant calls of nocturnal animals than in any overt threat, creating a persistent sense of unease that seeps into the family’s attempts at renewal.

As night deepens and the forest closes in, the Lovell family finds themselves confronting the stark contrast between the comforting routines of city life and the primal rhythm of nature. Their fragile hope for solace is tempered by the eerie quiet and the subtle, almost palpable feeling that something unseen watches from the trees. The stage is set for a tense, atmospheric journey where personal fears and the mysteries of the wild intertwine, leaving the audience poised on the edge of anticipation.
