On a quiet summer night in 1912, the small town of Villisca, Iowa, was rocked by one of the most brutal and baffling crimes in American history. The Moore family and two young guests were slaughtered in their sleep, their lives ended by an unseen intruder wielding an axe. Over a century later, the Villisca axe murders remain unsolved, shrouded in mystery and speculation.
In this episode, we delve deep into the chilling details of that fateful night, the lives of the victims, and the sinister clues left behind. We explore the prime suspects—from a vengeful businessman to a deranged preacher—and examine the haunting theories that still linger. Was this a crime of passion, a ritual killing, or the work of a wandering madman?
Join us as we uncover the dark secrets of Villisca, where the past refuses to rest and the questions still outnumber the answers. Turn the lights down low and prepare for a journey into America’s most infamous unsolved crime.
