About this episode

Deep in the Alabama wilderness, some secrets refuse to stay buried. When two young girls stumble upon a forgotten, vine-covered cottage in the woods, they think they've found a secret clubhouse. But as the shadows lengthen, they uncover the tragic echoes of a Civil War-era mystery that has haunted the land for over a century. Join us for "Little Cottage in the Woods," a chilling Southern Gothic tale about the thin line between childhood curiosity and the ghosts of the past.
