Bloody-Disgusting is excited to bring you an opportunity to win some amazing prizes from Ghost Brothers of Darkland County, the southern gothic musical co-written by famed author Stephen King and renowned musicians John Mellencamp and T Bone Burnett! Below are details on how a grand prize winner can snag a deluxe 3-disc edition of the musical signed by King, Mellencamp, and Burnett as well as a deluxe ghost hunting kit. Three runner-ups will each receive a signed deluxe 3-disc edition.

The Ghost Brothers of Darkland County saga began when Mellencamp told King about a cabin on his land in Indiana where two brothers had gotten in a fight over a girl; one brother accidentally killing the other, only to die along with the girl in a car crash a short time later. King came up with an outline for a play in a matter of days. And then off and on, back and forth, they began to develop it into a full-length musical.

The musical’s superb blues ‘n roots songs, performed by a stellar collection of guest artists, drives this haunting tale of fraternal love, lust, jealousy and revenge, 13 years in the making.

Head on below for full details on how to enter!
