It's Friday, October 6th, the third day in a row the temperature has hit the high eighties. A genuine Indian summer heat wave. Twelve year-old Billy Crowell and his friends are playing homerun derby at Pingree Park when the town's fire horn starts honking. Everyone stops and counts the series of toots and they decipher the code: there's a forest fire approaching town. Billy and his friends join the firefighters as they attempt to protect their town from the raging forest fire, but the fire isn't the only danger in the forest. Soon Billy is separated from the group, disoriented and lost. Daylight is fading fast and the forest is growing darker by the minute. Before too long, Billy stumbles upon the mutilated corpse of a deer, and the true horrors of the woods are soon chasing after him as night consumes the land...
