This is my entry for the NG Creepypasta Collab.

I know it sounds bad, but this is my first time doing a voice for something.

I also don't know why the audio quality is so low, it wasn't like that when I recorded it.

My voice also sounds weird and high pitched either due to the quality, or that I struggled trying to get the voice right.

Henry Darkwood and The Wretched

Henry Darkwood was a man who loved to research any kind of creature! Especially rare creatures. He had heard rumors of a very rare creature known as the Wretched that lived deep in the forest. The rumors said that the Wretched were once humans turned into the Wretched by the darkness in their hearts. Henry found this exhilarating, as if he was able to prove that the Wretched existed, he would be famous! So, that night he set up camp in the forest, and waited.

The next day at exactly 12 O' clock in the morning, he heard a howl. though it wasn't the howl of a wolf, nor a coyote. It was something completely different.

"A Wretched."

He thought. His heartbeat quickened at the thought of it really existing.

"I'll be famous. Rich and famous, just you wait."

Henry said to himself.

As the dawn of the morning came, Henry wrote down what he had heard in his research journal. Henry assumed that the Wretched were nocturnal creatures, as nothing happened in the morning. However that night when Henry was asleep, he was awoken by the sound of rustling outside his tent. He looked outside his tent with extreme caution being careful not to scare away whatever was outside. Then he saw it. A gray-skinned, red-eyed, creature with horns and a tail feasting on a deer. I was undoubtedly a Wretched. As the tore into the deer looking for more to eat, Henry quickly drew what the Wretched looked like in his journal. More Wretched came towards the deer in hopes of a midnight snack. They all looked identical except for one. It was tall and stood on two feet rather than four. He drew it with haste. Suddenly the tall Wretched spoke.

"I smell a human."

Henry was shocked, he quickly wrote down that the tall Wretched was able to speak. He was so focused on it that he did not realize that he had been surrounded by the pack of Wretched. He was soon devoured by them, torn to shreds and eaten. The next day nothing was left except a ripped tent and his research journal.

He was never seen again.

I'm currently working on a wiki that gives background on what the Wretched are.
