More than 100 years ago when Charles "Blinky" Morgan was hanged at the Ohio State Penitentiary he was a well-known personality. Today few know about him or the crimes he committed that led him to the end of a noose. This documentary illustrates both the man and his crimes but also looks deeper into the idea of story and myth. Join us on a journey through 19th Century clothing, transportation, and Northeast Ohio while we explore the colorful and tragic life of Blinky Morgan.
