In a small town in the Appalachians, a young man named Ethan returns home after several years of studying in the city. However, things have changed drastically. The town is shrouded in superstitions and rumors about mysterious disappearances that seem to be related to an ancient local legend: a werewolf that lurks in the shadows.
Confused, Ethan reconnects with his childhood and his old friend Sarah, who is investigating the strange phenomena as part of a school project. Together, they begin to unravel a dark family secret that has been hidden for generations. As the nights grow more unsettling, Ethan starts experiencing strange changes in his own body, becoming increasingly aware that the legend might be more than just a simple horror story.
With Sarah's help, they venture into the woods, where they uncover an ancient array of rituals and a group of guardians trying to protect the town from a supernatural force that has awakened. As chaos ensues and the disappearances escalate, Ethan must confront not only the transformation that threatens him but also his destiny as the last descendant of a cursed family.
Amid unexpected twists, friendship, and terror, the struggle for truth will push them to their limits, challenging what they think they know about human nature and what it means to be wild.
