He's been labeled as the first rock star ever. The legend says that one night he sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads to play the guitar like nobody else. Robert Johnson, a certified master of the guitar and haunted practitioner of the muddy Mississippi Blues, was more than just a musician; he was an American storyteller. One who was marked by tragedy, lovesickness, and a restless wandering spirit that took him all over the place. What abounds of his life story is delivered through his music, twenty-seven songs captured on record in Texas, and what little we know of him is often the tales weaved together by the people who came across or traveled with him throughout the span of his short life. Some of these tales being passed-down myths that might've captured a fragmented part of the truth, the infamous myth of Robert Johnson, rambling the roads as a blues man. But where did he go when he disappeared? Who did he visit? And what ultimately brought him to the crossroads to sell off his soul? A biographical story about the King of the Blues blended with fiction and some elements of horror.
