Deep in the remote woods of West Virginia, the wrong turn can be your last.
When Thomas Avon takes a detour to avoid a traffic jam, he collides with a group of stranded friends whose car was mysteriously sabotaged. Stranded with no cell service and miles from civilization, they set out in search of help—only to discover that something far worse than isolation waits among the trees.
Hunted by a clan of deformed, inbred killers who know every inch of the forest, Thomas and his companions must fight to survive a nightmare of rusted traps, blood-soaked cabins, and a hunger that never dies.
Based on the original screenplay by Alan B McElroy, this novelization plunges deeper than the film into the twisted backwoods. It explores so much more of the characters, the terror, the desperation, and unrelenting brutality when the wilderness attacks.
