What happened to Sarah Bullington to turn her into a crazed, half-melted, hanging-eyeballed, hatchet-wielding freak along the Elk River shores in North Alabama? Kidnapped, molested, and sold through the child slaver Georgia Tann, Sarah becomes the adopted property of James and Ella Bloodworth. Raped by James, Sarah gives birth to a baby, which Ella promptly throws down the well. Sarah rises with a hatchet. “Sarah” is never seen again—the Hatchet Woman is born. Nightly she returns to the well…. The Hatchet Woman is the first of four novellas in this quartet of horror and humor by R. Garth. It fleshes out the life of Sarah Bullington and weaves the following sequels’ title characters: The Hook Man, a worker horribly disfigured at his automotive parts plant; The Animal Man, a creature spawned by the actual mating of a man with a bear; and The Freak, with psychic and mystical powers that unfold in the strange magic of Blue Springs.
