Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
A traveling sideshow arrives in another town decimated by the dustbowl, where the performers find themselves beset by a malevolent force that begins claiming them one-by-one. Meanwhile, Detective Ellison (Reggie Banister) launches an investigation that leads him to question Virgil the Strong Man (Chris Straviski) and Ratty the Snake Handler (Doug Jones), two of the sideshow's most prominent performers. Perhaps, if they don't have the answers to the questions he's asking, elusive carnival owner Helen (Denise Gossett) will.
