The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the woods…

‘Shit. Does that sound too clickbaity?’

Cliché as it is, that is how this story begins. It’s Ivy Hill back again with another video! Today is a different type of video from what y’all are used to. Today, I will be exploring the old cabin, here in beautiful Lake Pontiac, that was the site… of a gruesome and violent murder. A murder that y’all probably have heard about. It is midnight right now and today, we will find the truth about the murder of Heather Shin…

Name: Heather Hyewon Shin

Date of Birth: May 18th, 1980

Birthplace: Seoul, South Korea

Date of Death: January 15, 1999

Height: 5’ 3”

Weight: 105 lbs

Hair Color: Black

Eye Color: Brown

So, we are FINALLY here at the site where Heather was killed. I mean, look at it! A small, wooden cottage – kind of reminds me of Lincoln Logs. Cute. I would never think a murder would happen at a place like this.

‘Alone in a tiny-ass Lincoln Log-esque cabin. No wonder the girl got murdered.’

Anyways, I have my equipment right… here! See? I have my flashlight, back-up camera, candles, lighter, radio, and EMF gauge. If it isn’t obvious already, I am here to solve the mystery of what happened to Heather and… what better person to ask other than Heather herself?

‘I mean, with how Heather Shin has been trending all over social media recently, this is just what I need to grow my channel!’

CREAK…! Shit! Okay, now I am… like… officially scared now. Guys! Bear with me now. CREAK…! This just shows how old this cabin is. CREAK…! Shit… I am literally getting chills – and I am not even inside the cottage! This feels so surreal and scary all at once.

‘Okay… let’s get this fucking over with. Like… seriously. I will literally lose my mind if I stay here any longer. Keep it together, Ivy.’

CLUNK!

CREAK…! God… This feels like so real now. Let’s go, guys! It’s time to get some long-awaited justice for Heather.

‘After this, I can’t wait to see all of the views this video will get! Soon, it will be goodbye Briarwood and hello LA!’

Okay, let’s head over to the living room right over here since this is where Heather was killed. And, damn, it definitely looks like something happened here. The books fallen off the bookshelves. The dent in the wall over here, right by the bookshelf. And… blood all over the wall and on the floor right over here. Guys, I am getting chills again. Let’s set up everything.

‘Keep it together Ivy. Just film a sign of… something and get the fuck out of here. Just get something and go. Remember the views you will get. Your future depends on it.’

Alright now, let’s quickly set up the candles down here – right where the blood is and then –

Wait. What the fuck? Are you all seeing this?

‘How. The. Fuck did I not see that candle over there by the window nearby? It’s fucking burning. I thought there is no one here?!’

Guys… This is getting freaky. Y’all getting scared right now…? Cause I am. Let’s get this over with. It’s turning into a freezer in here. Let’s start this –

CREAK…!

‘What the fuck was that?! Is there… someone else here?’

Guys, did you hear that? I am sure I am the only one here. Besides, this cottage has been abandoned ever since Heather died.

Let’s just continue to light these candles and get this over with. Okay… One… Two… Thr—

TAP.

TAP. Is… Is… th-th-there any-anyone there?! This isn’t funny! Just come out now before I –

PAT! Whoever you are, I have you on camera! PAT! You… PAT! Get away from me! PAT! PAT! PAT! AHHHHHHHHH!
