While searching the back country for illegal poachers, Benton and his girlfriend Nan Greyson (Jan Shepard) come across a dying moonshiner with mysterious wounds and major blood loss. Adding to this evidence is the eye witness report from a man stating his wife and her lover were dragged into the swamp by some mysterious creatures. When more hunters turn up missing, Benton decides it's time to investigate.
