Abomination On Bolt Mountain

After the disastrous explosion at Piney Fork Coal Company, a miner, Billy Ray, finds himself crippled and unable to provide for his family. Riddled with guilt and convinced he was responsible for the accident which took many of his friend’s lives, Billy turns to liquor and pain pills. Just as Billy’s health and family life completely deteriorate , a strange visitor appears. The visitor doesn’t speak or respond to the family in any way. The visitor does, however, have what appears to be angel wings growing out of his back.
