6: The Villisca Ax Murders | True Crime Sleep Stories

True Crime Sleep Stories

11/06/22 • 22 min

In 1912, in Villisca Iowa....the Moore family was considered affluent in their small community – and they were VERY well liked - until they were all brutally murdered in their beds by an unknown monster.
Was it a serial killer? A creepy window peeper? Or a supernatural entity?
Thanks for listening, and sleep well...
