Plot
In 1913 two wealthy black farmers, Thomas and Meeks Griffin, are framed for a murder they did not commit, so that the true killers can obtain their land. Their plan is successful and they divvy up the property between them. Approximately 100 years later two of the murderers' descendants, CJ Ramage and Roger Nebold, wish to sell the property for a massive amount of money but find that they must obtain the permission of a third, previously unknown heir named Lyndsay. Lured by the promise of easy money, Lyndsay travels to Blackstock, South Carolina with her friends to sign the business deal. Once there, Lyndsay finds herself drawn to Jesse, a descendant of the Griffin brothers. He warns Lyndsay that CJ and Roger are not to be trusted and is frustrated when she still chooses to sell the land.
Unbeknownst to Lyndsay and the others, the Griffin brothers have risen from the grave to seek vengeance against anyone who hopes to profit from the stolen land.

Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Blackstock Boneyard”, the useful work is to connect “horror film by Andre Alfa” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
Attribution, date and provenance are strongest when supported by the original work, a catalogue record and documented transmission. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 27, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q108195792. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2021 and 1913.
Rights, attribution and provenance may remain disputed even when a general reference summary presents a stable account. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
