The Thing That Called Itself Alec Greene

In the summer of 1998, Alec Greene vanished during a camping trip with his closest friends. When he returned, he was different—a hollow reflection of the vibrant boy they once knew. Now, a decade later, the friends reunite, drawn together by nostalgia and unresolved grief. But as they share long-buried memories, a chilling truth emerges: the thing that came back wearing Alec’s skin may not have been Alec at all.

Haunted by guilt, secrets, and the lingering feeling of being watched, they must confront what was lost in the woods—and what might still be lurking in the shadows, waiting to finish what it started. The Thing That Called Itself Alec Greene is a haunting exploration of friendship, identity, and the eerie space between who we are and what we pretend to be.
