The Bad Season [MultiFormat]
by Dennis Latham
|
|
During two consecutive June nights in 1995, twenty-six people and dozens of domestic animals were slaughtered and eaten in a rural Kentucky valley. For generations, locals avoided the Owenton Hollow after dark because such uspeakable acts had happened before, during summers known as "the bad season."
