It's the 1930s during the Depression. The Johnson family has lost all their crops on their farm. The soil is dry and dust blows in the wind. A windmill, a barn, and a farm house occupy the property but nothing else is seen for miles. What used to be a field of corn has now all but dried up and welted away. A stretch of dirt road leads to a two-way highway.

Bill Johnson is a middle-aged farmer with a wife and four children. He has been working on the farm since a small boy and nothing else. All their fortunes are tied into the business however the past couple of years have proven difficult. Due to a drought, his corn has been dying till this current year there is nothing left to reap.

After a murder-suicide, fast-forward to modern day. A group of college kids on a road trip discovers the abandoned farm to only discover its dark past and and must fight the Scarecrow for their lives.
