114 Years Later: The Villisca Axe Murder House Still Won’t Let Go
114 years ago the Moore family came home from church in Villisca, Iowa and went to bed for the last time.
By the time the sun came up on June 10th, 1912, eight people were dead. Joe and Sarah Moore. Their four children: Herman, 11; Katherine, 10; Arthur, 7; and Paul, 5. And two little girls who had been invited for a sleepover. Lena Stillinger, 11, and her younger sister Ina May, 8. All of them killed with an axe in the dark. All of them still in their beds.
