A group of college kids travel to a small, mountain town called Madison
County to interview the author of a tell-all book on the accounts of
several grisly murders that happened there. But when the kids get to
Madison County, the author is no where to be found and the towns people
act like they haven't seen him in years. They also say that the killer
never existed and the murders never happened. However, when the kids
start digging around to get their own answers, they find out that the
stories may be more real than the townspeople are letting on!
