A ring of evil buried in an ancient forest, the Devil's Dance belongs to the country of the Melungeons, that strange race of outcasts whose prehistoric origin is unknown. People believe that they worship the Devil himself, practicing obscene rites and drinking the blood of their victims during their debauched rituals.

When Christine arrives at the ancient mansion where her sister's staying, she hears all the lurid stories about the curious country folk. Then she discovers she has a Melungeon name herself. Will this be her ticket to a final dance with death?
