dontgobackinthewoods is a small myth from 2023 who gained popularity in June after being discovered by myth hunters. He originally created his game in May 2023, but the game was mysteriously taken down and later replaced with the current version.

Biography

One night in the forest, while Timothy and his father were camping, they encountered crop circles which had not originally been there when they entered the forest. They later saw a big noise and a big light in the sky, which led to Timothy's father panic. A day after the crop circles appeared, Henry, otherwise known as dontgobackinthewoods, appeared.

Henry and Timothy soon became friends. As described by Timothy himself, Henry became "a part" of him. Henry is able to see and hear what Timothy does, and vice versa. Eventually one day, Timothy's dad exited his home and encountered Henry. Henry then "hugged" him, which led to him disappearing and most likely dying.

Game(s)

(Private)

Content Deleted was the original version of Woods. There is no documented videos of dontgobackinthewoods, but judging by the thumbnail and the badge images, the game seems the be the exact same as Woods.

Woods

Woods takes place in a large dark forest. The player first spawns near a large road and a small stone path leading to a cabin. The cabin is quite small, featuring one bed room and multiple bookcases. There are also drawings scattered across the home, featuring Henry. Notably, there is a basement hatch in the bedroom. It's unknown exactly how to access it, as it has only been opened when the owner was present.

Scattered across the maps are three graves, with cryptic riddles written on them. Answering the riddles lead to the graves lighting up. The game also features a group of crop circles close to the road.
