The story flashes between Alice and her crew in the “Now” chapters, and the events leading up to the disappearance in August 1959 in the “Then” chapters.
But there’s something disconcerting about the abandoned rotting homes and silent streets, and Alice’s plans are upended when the party becomes more and more convinced they aren’t alone. Her mission, after researching her grandmother’s lifetime of notes and stories, is to shoot compelling enough footage to get a Kickstarter going for a full fledged documentary on the mysterious disappearance of the villagers. Sixty years later, Alice, granddaughter of one of the last people to legitimately leave Silvertjärn, returns with a small film crew. A single rotting body in the square, an abandoned newborn in the nurse’s office of the school, and not a single remaining soul to be found. In 1959, police arrive to the remote Swedish mining village of Silvertjärn to horrific scene. The Lost Village is a book I’d LOVE to see turned into a movie, because it was deliciously creepy. Some are great, some are ridiculous, some are just really poorly done. I watch a lot of documentary/lost footage-style horror movies.
