The Villisca Axe Murder House - Part III (Campfire)

More than a century ago, in the quiet town of Villisca, Iowa… a horrifying crime shattered a sense of small-town innocence: two adults and six children were brutally murdered in their sleep with an axe. The case remains unsolved to this day.Today, the home where it happened still stands — preserved not just as a historical site, but as one of the most chilling and active paranormal locations in the country.Previously on this Campfire Series, listeners heard from the current tour guide of the Villisca Axe Murder House… a tourism rep who left the home feeling deeply unsettled… a seasoned paranormal investigator… and a researcher and author who has studied the house for years.But at the center of this series is one family: the caretaker and his wife, who unknowingly moved into the house directly across the street from the Villisca Axe Murder House — and soon after, began experiencing something they couldn’t explain.In Part I, the caretaker shared his side of the story — but it became clear there was more he wasn’t ready to say. Since then, others have echoed the idea that a dark presence lingers in Villisca. And now, in Part III, the story returns to its heart.Listeners will hear what the caretaker held back during that first interview.And for the first time… his wife’s side of the story will finally be revealed.Photo provided by Travel IowaEPISODE SPONSORS:LUMI GUMMIESGo to LumiGummies.com  and use code NIGHTOWL for 30% off your order.AG1Go to drinkAG1.com/nightowl to get a FREE Frother with your first purchase of AGZ.BETTERHELPThe Night Owl is sponsored by BetterHelp.
