Liner Notes

This is a real place up in my old stomping grounds of Shelbyville, Indiana (USA). There are many legends surrounding Werewolf Hollow, including the scratching on the car roof one. There are other stories of ghosts watchers, and stuff like that. My favorite one I was told is about a man that escaped an insane asylum, he would rub up and down the road in the hollow and howl at people passing by in their horse and buggies, thinking he was an actual werewolf. But all I ever found out there was just trees that looked carved out into a tunnel or Holler. Just like in the photo. But, anyway, I've always wanted to write a song about it. In fact I would like to name an album after it. It's not perfect or even finished. But I like the start I have so far. Don't mind the not so state of the art recording. I think the lyrics came out pretty decent.

Lyrics

Going to tell you all story it'll get pretty gory Hiding in the woods A creature up to no good. The moon he starts to howlin’ His teeth they are a shinin’ Better stay away Or be his prey.

(CHORUS) Won’t you take me back( 3X) Won’t you take me back to Werewolf Hollow? (Repeat)

You’ve heard the urban legend about the boy and his girlfriend Parked in a car Way back far. He went to check a sound Left her waiting ‘round. She heard scratches on the roof, It was him hanging from a noose. (CHORUS)

You could hear her screamin’ When she saw him bleeding. The wolf came ‘round, Didn’t make a sound. She knew it was too late And had sealed her fate. (CHORUS)

I was immediately drawn in by the title. Cool sounding jam! It's cool that it was inspired by a real location. There is a HUGE gap in the genre of Halloween music... and this can def be considered a Halloween jam (imo). Great track!

You just reminded me - intentional or not - that we are on the edge of spooky season. I love the overdriven guitar, working with the "sing song" vibe of the vocals/scary lyrics. Looks like a place I would have visited, as well.
