Synopsis: "In the tiny town of Lake Belle Reve, Mississippi in 1957, a terrible tragedy took the lives of two brothers and a beautiful young girl. During the next forty years, the events of that night became the stuff of local legend. But legend is often just another word for lie. Joe McCandless knows what really happened; he saw it all. The question is whether or not he can bring himself to tell the truth in time to save his own troubled sons, and whether the ghosts left behind by an act of violence will help him – or tear the McCandless family apart forever."
"The Alliance Theatre in Atlanta, GA is now selling tickets for Ghost Brothers of Darkland County. Ghost Brothers is scheduled to open April 4, 2012 and will run through May 13th, 2012."
