Enter the dark forest at your own risk.

When legendary wildlife adventurer Lord Greive advertises for a junior field trainee, thousands of children apply. After all, who wouldn’t want to risk being torn apart by wild animals just for the chance to work with their hero?

Only six finalists make it to the front doors of creepy Greive Manor in the remote Tasmanian Central Highlands. But before they can attempt the dangerous wilderness challenges the beastly Lord Greive has set for them, they must escape the vicious Tasmanian devil trying to hunt them down inside the manor. Who will make it? And if they do, what are their chances of surviving a week in the terrifying forest... alone? Where it’s dark, it’s cold and everything bites.
