In the 1982 horror film *The Beast Within*, the fictional town of Nioba, Mississippi represents every nightmare about small Southern towns with buried secrets. A place where family bloodlines control justice, where monsters are created in basements and fed on human flesh, and where vengeance follows a seventeen-year cycle—the same cycle as the cicada emerging from underground. Though Nioba exists only on film, it was brought to terrifying life in the real Mississippi swamps around Jackson, Raymond, and Bolton. This is the story of a cinematic location that captures the darkest possibilities of Southern Gothic horror—and
why its atmosphere of dread feels disturbingly real.
