The Axeman’s LullabySettle in for a haunting tale that will send shivers down your spine while gently lulling you into restful slumber. 

Tonight, we transport you to the sultry streets of 1918 New Orleans, where the scent of jasmine lingers in the warm night air, and the distant hum of jazz floats through open windows. 

But beneath the charm of this lively city lies a shadowy figure who would become one of the most chilling characters in its history. This is the story of the Axeman, a phantom who struck in the night, spread fear through the city, and vanished without a trace.

Join us as we unravel the mystery of the Axeman’s reign, exploring the eerie details of his crimes, the fear that gripped the city, and the chilling letter that dared New Orleans to play jazz to avoid his wrath. Was he a man, a myth, or something in between? 

Pull the covers up tight and allow the intrigue to carry you away.
