Episode Notes

An appropriate topic for the holiday, I think--things that go bump in the night outside of isolated farmhouses, a story that exists in the netherworld of saucer story and monster tale, and one of the few incidents that makes it difficult for me to sleep if I think about it too close to bedtime.

Come with us to Christian County, Kentucky. Don't bother to bring your shotgun.
