Coming soon from Mad Cave Studios is the newest folk-horror graphic novel from Romanian creator Ennun Ana Iurov (Needle & Thread), Whisper of the Woods.

After the disappearance of a close friend, a young university student, Adam, finds himself compelled to travel to Transylvania and take matters into his own hands. The search brings him to a haunted village in the middle of Transylvania, with a terrible history that haunts its inhabitants. Can Adam find the truth of what happened to his friend? Or will he succumb to the terrible secrets that lie in the woods?

Synopsis: In search of his missing friend, Adam travels to the heart of Romania’s most supernatural forest, Hoia Baciu.

Though with every passing night, it becomes impossible to ignore the happenings around him…
“I’m really excited for Whisper of the Woods to finally be released. It’s a bit nerve wracking, it being the first comic officially published that I not only drew for but also wrote. Regardless, I hope people will give it a try, find some enjoyment in it, and that this comic will make people more interested in Romanian folklore, since we have a lot of dark, creepy monsters and stories that I’m sure many people would enjoy.”
