The Villisca Ax Murders: An Unsolved Mystery
In 1912, the small town of Villisca, Iowa, was rocked by the brutal murder of eight people, including six children, inside the Moore family home. Bludgeoned to death with an ax as they slept, the victims' deaths remain one of America's most chilling unsolved mysteries. Despite multiple suspects and decades of investigation, the case was never solved, leaving behind a legacy of fear, speculation, and a home many believe is still haunted.
