Breadcrumb Saints

Deep in the Blackwood, the breadcrumbs don’t lead home—they lead deeper.When seventeen-year-old Ben vanishes into an off-limits forest known for swallowing the lost, his sister Maya drives to the edge of sanity—and the county line—to find him. Locals whisper about the Blackwood’s strange geometry, the sickly-sweet air, and the children seen watching from the trees. What begins as a desperate search quickly spirals into a waking nightmare, as Maya follows a trail of impossible breadcrumbs into the woods—and into the jaws of something ancient, patient, and hungry.What waits in the heart of the forest isn’t just myth. It’s alive. It remembers. And it’s been watching her since the moment she stepped off the road.A dark reimagining of Hansel and Gretel laced with psychological horror and folk dread, Breadcrumb Saints is a haunting descent into corrupted innocence, intergenerational grief, and the twisted bargains we make with monsters we once thought were only stories.
