The entire cabin began to shake. Back and forth violently. It was so much movement it shook Chris out of his bunk and onto the floor. It seemed like forever that the cabin was shaking. It was so violent that one of the 2x4 rafters snapped and a 2x4 fell to the floor. My only thought was that whatever this thing is, it’s coming through the wall.”
