It Doesn't Go Away

A woman on the brink. A long, endless hike. Something waiting in the woods.
There's something waiting for her along the Appalachian Trail. Watching. Following. She knows it. She can feel their eyes on her at every corner. It's only a matter of time before they catch up...
In the aftermath of a horrible traumatic incident, a woman sets out on a solo long-distance hiking trip along the Appalachian Trail. Despite her insistence to push through, dark forces manifest in strangers' faces and terror sets in. With every turn through the dense, dark wood, she discovers that running away from her past is more difficult than it seems, and in the end, it just doesn't go away. *CW for mentions of suicide and SA.
