When six college kids in a sleepy Southern town are assigned a group project to rediscover a moment in history, one of them sets in motion a horrific fate when he proposes they head into the Georgia backwoods to tackle the legend of Emily Burt, the Talbot County werewolf. Talbot County is a Hitchcockian tale of horror set in 1986 that delves into a hundred year old true fable and is met with true consequences that go beyond any classroom lessons.
