No one ever went camping at Burnham Wood. Legend has it, back in the seventeenth century, witches performed rituals in these same woods. And anyone who happened upon them would be burned alive. Their carcass devoured by wolves. It’s common knowledge that witches keep wolves as pets.
For over four centuries the roads to Burnham Wood’s are closed.
Then one night an out of town school bus filled with children decided to ignore the warning signs. It was a shortcut, you see.
A decade later and the children are still missing, though the school bus was found, guarded by wolves.
