04 The Villisca Axe Murder House
This week on Ghost Bites, Mike and J.T. take a grim tour of the Villisca Axe Murder House, where in 1912, an entire family and two guests were brutally murdered in their sleep by an unknown assailant. With over a century of unanswered questions, botched investigations, and alleged paranormal activity, this house isn't just a historical site—it's a full-blown nightmare fuel factory. Join us as we try to make sense of the senseless, and ponder why anyone would willingly spend a night in a place where an axe-wielding murderer might still be looking for a roommate.
