When the mines closed, Wythe County, VA planned to abandon the company town of Ivanhoe.
But Maxine ‘Mack’ Waller wouldn't let it. She was a powerhouse whose work is at the heart of our film "Rough Side of the Mountain."
Rest easy, Mack.

"Do you know where the Devil lives at?"
"His brother tried to get him to give up that foolishness but he said, 'I got to go to the Devil or my head will be cut off and put on a spear!'"
Happy Halloween! Enjoy this performance of "Ghost Stories" from Roadside in the early 80s.
