The Devil's Stomping Ground

On May 1, 2021, fifteen college film students traveled to the place near the Uwharrie Mountains of North Carolina, known as The Devil’s Tramping Ground, to shoot their senior short film project. What happened that night was a tragedy. ”The Devil's Stomping Ground" is a narrative feature, edited together from the footage the seniors were shooting for their movie and the behind the scenes documentary footage 2 juniors were shooting of their efforts. The film chronicles the day and subsequent night of their shoot. It is a cautionary tale about temptation, pushing your luck, and the inevitable consequences of being oblivious to your surroundings. Will they be "forever changed” as the legend suggests?
