Breaking news of missing ethologist
and naturalist Marco Contrada,
vanished in the woods of eastern Friuli
on the Slovenian border.
Immediate intervention by civil protection
in the woodland area where Contrada was performing
his periodic wildlife census operations in
support of wood rangers.
Research is difcult, due to recent bad weather.
Sudden raising of water level in streams.
Some areas almost inaccessible.
I must go to the attic...to get some stuff.
Stuff?... what stuff?
The rangers said we all have to work together
to nd that man...
I have to show them something that I keep in the attic...
In the attic?
Yes, in the attic...they have to see...it's important...
it's important for me too...
For God's sake... what are you talking about?
Those screams in the night... you hear them too...
and do not pretend you don't... you do hear them too...
There are beasts in the woods and
beasts scream sometimes...

I saw them just once...
I was eleven... the windows were...
Ice-covered...
I could not sleep...
I could never sleep...
I was thinking about my mother who was not anymore...
We were no longer safe... even in our own houses...
Breaking news. Tragic end for the rescue research
started a few days ago.
The corpses of the ethologist Marco Contrada
and three other civil defense volunteers have been found.
The butchered bodies laid within the
old walls of an abandoned
village in the woods of Friuli, close to the Slovenian border.
The cause of such violent deaths are still unclear
and suggest abnormal attacks from predators.
Rescuers, arrived in the village last night,
found an atrocious scenario...
The twin sisters... | haven't seen them anymore...
They say they were locked somewhere in the village...
or drowned in the river...
I don't know...
I'm confused...
I just know that almost seventy years have passed...
and I'm still scared...
