The Woods Are Dark by Richard Laymon
In a small, seemingly peaceful town, unsuspecting travelers find themselves ensnared in a horrifying nightmare when they are captured by a group of savage, primitive beings lurking in the surrounding woods. As the captives struggle to survive the nightmarish ordeal, they uncover the town's dark secret: a sinister pact between the townsfolk and the creatures, designed to keep the beasts at bay by offering human sacrifices. The story unfolds with relentless suspense and chilling twists, exploring themes of survival, betrayal, and the primal instincts that lie beneath the veneer of civilization.
