Amelia, a young researcher fascinated by ancient folklore, arrives in the village of Eastwood to investigate the local legend of the Forgotten Forest. The villagers warn her of the eerie place, where echoes of voices and strange occurrences drive fear into the hearts of anyone who dares enter. Undeterred, Amelia ventures into the forest, discovering an ancient well and a giant oak with carvings of names, including her own. As whispers follow her and visions flash before her eyes, she realizes the forest holds a mysterious, powerful force that connects her to its secrets. Torn between fear and curiosity, Amelia finds herself unable to resist the forest's dark pull, even as it draws her further into its haunting embrace.
