'''Warlock Country''', also often referred to as Warlock Woods, and lesser known as Morlock Country was a name given to the large patch of undeveloped land that covered the areas north and south of Lavallet subdivision to north of Wimbledon Drive, then east of the then-unpaved, red clay Spanish Trail to west of Scenic Highway. The name became popular during the mid-1960's, and lasted until the late 70's or early '80s, when development divided the area into smaller pieces of wooded acreage, roads were marked, and the first signs of residential development were made visible.

How the area got it's name is subject to conjecture, but most likely a hoax. There were no serious reports of actual, effective witchcraft that took place, although a few groups of black-hooded, late night candle burners were rumored to have gathered there. Somewhere along the line, a rumor was started that a train carrying a number of people with diminished mental capacities and tendencies toward aberrant behavior derailed, and the occupants escaped into the nearby area. Hence the lesser-known name of Morlock Country (from The Time Machine story). In spite of the tales, it was mostly used as a getaway for teenagers who needed a place to illegally consume alcohol, race cars and motorcycles, and just act wild. Another common practice was to tell a person unfamiliar with the area some of the stories concerning it, then drive them out there and abandon them.
