About this listen
Man is no longer a threat. Man is food.
It has always lived among us, its existence unknown or long forgotten. After a long and brutal winter, this opportunistic predator has finally awoken. Driven by hunger and forced from its territory in search of food, it leaves Wyoming’s Wind River Range for a small, sleepy town.
Jim Wendell, the Pine Creek Game and Fish warden receives the task of taking down this creature. Soon, he realizes a grizzly bear did not slaughter its victims. Something fiercer and more enormous is stalking the residents. Can Jim track this elusive predator before it claims its next victim?

Story
While tracking a potential terrorist cell, the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force sends a field team to investigate. Traveling deep into the Catskill Mountains, the Albany field office discovers something far more terrifying than a terrorist training camp. With more questions than answers, the JTTF team gathers their evidence and prepares to leave the forest when all Hell breaks loose. What started as a routine investigation quickly turns into a fight for survival against a foe that knows every inch of the terrain they are fighting on.

Mankind is no longer the dominant species. When Harrison Kent suggests an outing to a remote campsite in Colorado, his friends are all eager for a few days of fun and adventure. What awaits them, though, is far more than they ever bargained for. They learn that Sasquatch is real, but these are not the shy creatures of legend. A madness has claimed them, erasing their once peaceful nature and leaving in its wake a rampaging horde of monsters that's about to descend upon the unsuspecting residents of a remote town.

On a desolate beach in far northern Scotland, the winter storms have been washing up all manner of things since time began. But buried in the centre of one smaller iceberg is a shard of ancient Viking pottery telling a partial tale of a hidden mysterious island beyond the ice and mist, that was home to a great treasure and even greater horrors. Thawing in the same block of ice was a rotting flap of skin that refused to be identified but had similar skin patterns to a creature not seen for 100 million years.

They planned the perfect heist. They didn't plan on Bigfoot. After committing a series of daring robberies, Mason, Travis and Jack disappear into the untamed forests of the Pacific Northwest with their loot. Little do they suspect, however, that the forest holds secrets far more terrifying than any of their crimes. As paranoia fractures their unity, and the body count rises, they must confront the legendary creatures of the Pacific Northwest and forge a fragile alliance with a compound of doomers, hippies and preppers.

It had been a rough five years for Memphis Police Officer Jake Jessup.

What he found instead were a new set of demons, only these were real...and deadly. A float turns tragic for a group of boaters when a secret military project escapes into the Ozark Mountains of West Arkansas.

No one saw it coming. The attacks began out of nowhere. Giant alligators emerged from the sewers, huge bats swarmed New Mexico, an army of Chupacabras invaded Texas, and Thunderbirds soared the skies searching for prey. . . All across the globe, the cryptids came out of the woods, rose up from beneath the waves, and crawled out of dark caves. Humanity's only hope is to find out what is behind the attacks and destroy it or face extinction!

The legend of the Ozark Howler is as old as the mountains themselves, the bloody tales of terror, mutilation, and murder a foundation block in the region’s folklore. Skeptics dismiss the Howler as nothing more than tall tales and the work of overactive imaginations, but those who have seen the monster tell a different tale. Carter Renfrow is hiding from his past and living the life of a wanted man when a multi-car pileup interrupts his plans, and two worlds collide in an epic clash with life and death hanging in the balance.

Nice Quick Yarn With Improved Narration
An overall improvement upon the previous effort, especially the narration, which was considerably better paced & more emotive.
