Let me tell you a story: It dosen't matter how grown up you are, you, just like the rest of the humankind will always share one fear: the fear of being stranded alone in the middle of nowhere. Traveling for long distances is not uncommon, expecially for those who lives away from more lively communities but that still needs to attend university/college or simply needs to pay a visit to a friend/relative that lives far away, in that scenario well: their only way is to drive their way to the civilization, praying that fate won't lay its hands on their poor souls in the most untimely moments.

This is the story of Samantha Price, a young adult who was invited to a graduation party hosted by one of her college friends in the "nearby" town. Samantha was always prepared for inconveniences: always carried with her an extra gas tank in the car, she always pointed out to her parents her whereabouts and roads she taken, she always kept her car well maintained and always left her house with a fully charged phone, but no matter how well prepared you are, when fate gets on your way, almost nothing can prevent a tragedy. It was during a calm afternoon of september that Samantha was driving in a rural woodland road to get to their friend's house in the nearby town, the road was coasted by big towering pine trees, no one was on road lanes, the climate was mild and the road to the town long. Samantha is normally ever vigilant behind the wheel, but the calmness of the road, the lovely country music at the radio and beautifully lighted landscape made her relax a little bit too much. When all the sudden, a falling pinecone felt on the windshield and cracked it, Samantha jumped in fear to the sudden loud noise and her hand moved the wheel abruptly. The young woman failed to react in time and correct the trajectory of the car so she went briefly offroad, scratching in the process a low pine tree branch, fortunally she managed to stop in time before crashing directly into another tree. Samantha got out of the car to check the entity of the damage, apparently she didn't scratch the pine branch, she impacted with it! The branch found its way into the car's grille and pierced through the cooling canister, rendering the car inoperable. Samantha's first instict was to call for help with her phone, the signal was awful but she managed to call her father, giving him position on how to get to her, she only needed to wait for 2 hours to be rescued. After the car was secured, Samantha started to wait inside the car listening music from the radio to kill time, in the meanwhile: afternoon passed and evening kicked in. The previously lovely calmness of the road and the music at the radio that made her feel relaxed started to feel less relaxing and got more unnerving. How was possible that during all that traveled road no vehicle was seen? was the fate mocking her up? Those thoughts inhabited Samantha's head for a while, and those 2 hours really started looking endless, outside was getting more and more darker and even the car battery at the end kicked the bucket and went dry, now she is alone in silence. Suddently Samantha's phone rings and she accept the call swiftly: is her father. He reached the position and was really concerned by the fact that nor Samantha and the car are in the position he got from her, for an instant he tought that Samantha sent him wrong coordinates. Samantha checks the coordinates and started sweating: the coordinates sent to his father are correct. The father initally though it was a sort of prank, but that would have been too cruel, also, to a more detailed inspection he indeed found skidmarks on the road. What the hell was happening? Samantha kept speaking at the phone with his now heavily preoccupied father, sobbing, confused and scared, she then realized something uncanny: she didn't found any skidmarks near her car, also, she and her father quickly realized that between their voices, there was a low pitched breathing sound with them in the call. Both Samantha and her father realized this and started asking who is in call with them, but after the question the phone call fell abruptly. Samantha's eyes widened in horror: there was no phone service anymore. Alone in the car, with the growing silence of the dark woods the girl was overtaken by a growing sensation of dread, her mind kept returning on the breathing sound she heard at the phone, the idea of someone spying on that call was slowly feeding on her sanity, that and the cold silence to keep her company. Outside the car, the once warm and lovely wood landscape started looking sinister, unwelcomly and eerie. There were no stars in the sky, nor the moon was on sight, the whole forest was engulfed in total darkness. Samantha, now completely distressed used the phone to light up her surrounding, and was that the moment that she realized, that beside her in the woods there was something else. The girl's eyes fell on a pitch black corner of the road, with her eyes she spotted some white details between some branches: all the sudden, a spine chilling sensation overcame her, body went numb and her face became emotionless: those white details were the hands and the head of a faceless, stretched looking man, he was staring at Samantha with afixed gaze. After a glance exchange lasted for 2 minutes, Samantha went blind.

Samantha and her car were never found again, the only thing that her heartbroken father managed to find on the incident site was a splotched drawing depicting a crude looking doodle of Samantha herself, the most notable feature was the total lack of facial features and a big text on the sides reciting: dad finally found me. When Samantha's father got to the police they weren't surprised at all at the view of the drawing, as a matter of fact there was an already ongoing disappearances spree going around those area, but the news were never made public to avoid unrest, and all the researches made led up always to a creepy drawing like that. All the evidence found in similar circumstances led up to only a logical explaination: someone was behind those disappearances, the question now is: how is it capable of erasing any proofs of their victims route so efficiently? Beside those creepy looking drawings nothing else was found on the crime scenes, the evidences weren't enough to pinpoint a culprit and with Samantha Price disappearance the victim count was now updated to 8.
