It Waits in the Woods was my least favorite story from the Creature Feature collection. Brenda, the protagonist, takes it upon herself to find out the truth about a forest that has a history of being a place where people go missing including her sister. While the premise was promising, the story itself ended up being so far-fetched that it bordered into ridiculousness
