NO MAN'S LAND
A TRUE CRIME HORROR PODCAST
ABOUT
In 2019, documentary filmmaker John Hulme and his digital storytelling club at Highland Park High School began to investigate the history of "No Man's Land," a mysterious section of woods in Central New Jersey rumored to be haunted. Each episode focused on one of the most infamous stories in its terrible history of violence -- tales of murder and suicide, dating as far back as the late 1600's, all of which contain eerily similar elements of the supernatural. The hope was to prove once and for all whether or not "No Man's Land" was indeed infested with an evil presence. But somewhere along the way, the crew became unable to shake the dread that whatever was responsible for the terrible things that happened might still be out there.
Watching, and waiting to do the same to them...
