The game casts you as a young boy who's family is getting ready for Thanksgiving. As they're preparing, the boy is tasked with fetching his grandfather, who was sent to get a turkey for their Thanksgiving dinner. As soon as the kid steps outside, however, he hears his grandfather's scream of terror from over by the silo and decides to investigate.

Before the kid knows it, his night's plans have gone from "celebrate Thanksgiving with my family" to "survive against some kind of killer pilgrim".
