38. The Box Lady of Benton County

Midwest Mystery Files

It was a cool day in October of 1976. A farmer in Benton County, Indiana was working hard to catch up on harvest. It had rained for several days beforehand, and Norman Skoog was working against the rain tarnished terrain to get his work done. While driving his combine through the corn, he suddenly came upon a box in the middle of his path, Norman was able to stop just shy of colliding with the the out of place package. He would first work around the box, looking to get his work done, but later he would enlist some help to lift it and take it home. Whatever Norman may have expected inside the large box, it could not compare to the horror he did find. This is Midwest Mystery Files Episode 38, The Box Lady of Benton County.
