The Hanging Tree (Cul-De-Sacrifice)

Tonight, we'll hear a chilling yarn in the shade of the old hanging tree!

Pardon the lack of introduction-- I'm still dealing with the fallout of losing my old recording machine. Drats!

We'll follow Baker as he begins to settle into his new home. A neighbor drops by with a housewarming gift-- but that's not all. She shares with him the strange tradition that she claims has kept their quiet little court safe, and he must participate... or else.
