Between the peaks of the Ozark Mountains, nestled among thick forests and winding dirt roads, lies Ashwood, Arkansas, a picturesque slice of small town Americana. For five twelve-year-olds-Alan, Heather, Mac, Kevin, and Don-the summer of 1987 is meant for bike rides, creek beds, and childhood mischief. But when they stumble upon a mystery that shatters the town's idyllic veneer, something monstrous awakens beneath the quiet streets.

Told from multiple perspectives, Ashwood is a slow-burning thriller that blends the nostalgic wonder of Twin Peaks and Stranger Things with the eerie folklore and the creeping dread of True Detective. It's a chilling coming-of-age thriller that rides the razor's edge between supernatural horror and the terrifying human capacity for evil.
