Pop quiz. Some thoughtless people have been sneaking onto an island where pre-historic remains have been found and doing their own digging. Illegally so. And the archeologists studying the site are pissed! Is this the beginning to A) an episode of CSI, B) a low budget horror movie, C) an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, D) a story from WQOW about Barron County, or E) all of the above?

Made your guess? OK, the correct answer is “if you really answered that, you’re a big geeky dork and you should go back to playing with your Hobbit action figures." But as far as option D goes …

• Someone has been digging near the site where pre-historic remains were found on Prairie Lake. A team of archeologists were called in to excavate the site and determine the origin of the remains. Since their work wrapped up a few weeks ago someone has been on the island doing their own excavation. That has a number of people concerned.
• … A few weeks ago deputies discovered a pair of holes. One of those was just feet from where the remains were found. Sheriff Fitzgerald says he doesn't know if the person doing the digging is searching for more remains …

So what’s going on? Deputies think people are probably looking for Native American artifacts, but the archeological experts at Volume One firmly believe that a secret society is keeping the ancient tomb of their demon overlord hidden from the public so he can rise again on Halloween night and turn us all into zombie slaves. Yep, pretty sure.

The archeologists are currently studying the remains to see who (or what!) they are. And FYI, that picture up above is not from the dig site.
