There are certain spots in town... the field just beyond the fence... the final house on the cul de sac... the playground past the last streetlight... the riverside that sweeps out from town to feed a dark and hungry patch of trees...
Places where the familiar flirts with the liminal, touching the unknown and the untamed in a ceaseless, quiet negotiation to keep at bay what lingers just beyond the fringes of our safe and civilized, skeptical world.
Join us tonight we take one STRANGE step from the front porch and walk a uniquely weird path to the edge of town... and down to the weird waters of the Ohio River - with stories every step of the way!
