I like it. The howling is very ominous as it is not at all spelled out.
That second paragraph has a run-on, the triplicate sentence with all the actions. I get the intent, but I think it would work just as well as three separate, short sentences. Or you could combine the first two with a semi-colon and leave the third on its own. Also, considered less than ideal to start a sentence with a conjunction such as “and”. Despite that stuff, it’s a good read with a strong feel to it.
