The Legendary Shack Shakers The Hills of Hell lyrics

It states in The Kentucky Book of the Dead that there have been two accounts of crucifixion in the Bluegrass. In 1894, a lady of “ill repute” from Goose Creek was nailed to a tree by her fellow whores. Then, a year later, another woman was physically assaulted by her tormentors in an abandoned home. As she extended her arms, pleading for help, they nailed her hands to the log cabin walls.

Mr. McQueen goes on to report the most curious case of John Keith of Green County, whose murdered corpse was found stashed inside the body cavity of a dead horse. Keith's body had been wrapped in a blanket by his killer and then half-eaten by hounds. In fact, his severed hand was found dangling in the jaws of the beloved family dog.
