About this episode

Just after midnight on July 19, 2010, former professional basketball player, Lorenzen Wright, stepped out of a car and walked down a dirt path into the woods outside of Memphis, Tennessee. Then suddenly, Lorenzen heard a sound coming from the darkness, and he saw something rushing towards him. In a panic, Lorenzen turned off the path, put his head down, and started running as fast as he could into the dark woods. But eventually, the thing that was chasing him caught up to him. It would take authorities years to figure out what happened in the woods that night. But once the mystery was solved, it would shock the city of Memphis, as well as the millions of fans who watch professional basketball.
