I don't know why, but everyone in my town is disappearing

This is a manuscript found in Lethem Guyana, written by an unknown author during The Lich's attack on the city.

I have made this journal to document the strange events that are happening in my town, I figured I should do this if I want to survive.
=== 2/13/2012 ===
I live in Lethem, Guyana. A small town previously populated by approximately 1,700 inhabitants.
I have noticed an increase in disappearances, all women and children. My neighbors are growing uneasy and everyone I speak to seems on edge. If I want to understand why these events are happening I believe I should document them.
=== 2/14/2012 ===
Last night three more women disappeared. All of them lived in the western part of town. A group of men, including the missing women's husbands, is going around putting up posters and telling people about the disappearances, of course everybody already knows about them. I've seen at least 30 people skip town in the past week. News is spreading rapidly and everyone is scared. I expect more people to leave soon.
=== 2/16/2012 ===
In total I have counted 150 missing persons cases, my neighborhood is nearly empty, most businesses are shutting down, and everyone is trying to go somewhere safer. Whatever is taking these women, it can't be human. There's just way too many victims. I went to the store today so I could stock up on food and water. The store was closed of course. The only reason I'm willing to stay here is because only women are being targeted, I don't believe I'm at risk and my family lives in Georgetown, if I need to leave I can go there.

More women have gone missing, reports of two strange men roaming the streets at night have been surfacing. The group of men from a few days ago is planning on going into the forest and checking a group of older more secluded homes. A few elderly people live there and they haven't been heard from in a while.
=== 2/20/2012 ===
The group of men I previously mentioned has returned, They left yesterday. My neighbor two houses over, a cashew farmer, told me about a meeting regarding what they found tomorrow. I'll be attending it.
=== 2/21/2012 ===
I just got home from the meeting. There are now around 430 missing women. 
According to the man who organized the expedition into the forest, every one of the inhabitants of the houses was either found dead (only the males) or missing. The group also found several caves with a disgusting amount of rats in them. Several skeletons were in these caves, and they noted that the walls of the caves were filled with holes.
 The journal ends there, with the remaining pages of the notebook being blank.

 Malevolent Entity Unleashes Havoc: The Lich's Reign of Terror in Guyana
 Lethem, Guyana - The malevolent entity known as The Lich has left a trail of death and destruction in its wake as it ravaged the town of Lethem, plunging the community into a state of unimaginable horror. Over eight harrowing days, The Lich claimed the lives of thousands of residents and reduced the once-thriving city to ruins. The entity's insatiable hunger for life-force led to gruesome scenes as victims, primarily females, were ruthlessly dragged into Lich Pits, their life-force consumed to fuel The Lich's power and further intensify its reign of terror.
 Efforts to contain The Lich proved fruitless, as it eluded capture and defied all attempts to predict its movements. The Lich's deceptive abilities, assuming the form of a male figure resembling Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, allowed it to infiltrate the community and prey upon its unsuspecting victims. The aftermath of The Lich's rampage left Lethem devastated, its streets strewn with rubble and its infrastructure in ruins. As the community grapples with grief and attempts to rebuild, authorities are urging heightened vigilance and immediate reporting of any encounters with The Lich, emphasizing the importance of maintaining eye contact and listening for its distinct cackle as crucial survival strategies in the face of this malevolent threat.
