Plot
Deep river valleys, tall limestone bluffs sawing through the sky… thousands of years ago, this unique portion of the Midwest escaped the crushing effects of the giant Ice Age glaciers. But with its scenic beauty, this preserved primal landscape also conceals unimaginable terrors: Mississippi river cults, inescapable addictions, lives not lived and blood-thirsty vengeance from beyond the grave. Four terrifying tales of the macabre Midwest.
