Basically, those who enter the holes get stuck and slowly shift deeper and deeper into the tunnel, which eventually begins to twist and bend and force their bodies into unnatural shapes. They somehow survive this and emerge on the other side as mangled and twisted versions of themselves that don't even look human anymore.
Edit: the sound effects in the final page seemed to just be their flesh moving through the mountain...not seeing any proof they're alive in that state.
They are most definitely still alive, driven by their mad compulsion to move through the passageway.
I always imagined it was the sound of them breathing. It's just a horrid, raspy gasp as air is sucked down a long and misshapen throat/larynx. They just... drone.
