Justin Collier expects his respite in Gast, TN to be relaxing if not a bit dull, but he will find out soon enough that those same train tracks once led to a place worse than Hell.WELCOME TO THE GAST HOUSEA historical bed and breakfast or a monument to the obscene? Collier doesn't need to know the building's rich history: women raped to death for sport, slaves beheaded and threshed into the soil, and pregnant teenagers buried alive.
