all along the house now it's got an eerie feeling if you see something on camera you let me know right in the comments [Music] I know you're gonna dig this [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] thank you [Music] [Laughter] [Music] thank you [Music] foreign foreign [Music] what's going on everybody how you doing today here I am in Villisca Iowa and I am at the Villisca ax murder house when I was in Omaha about four years ago somebody wrote to me and said oh you're really close to the Villisca Ax Murderer house you've got to go I said it's sad I didn't know I found out decided eight murders in 1912 six children two adults murdered in this house the crime has never been solved now I'm going to take a tour with Johnny who gives tours of the house Martha owns a house she's so sweet if you're come by you've got to say hello to Martha 85 years old going strong and then I'm gonna walk around the house by myself just get a feel for it so I'm gonna take you on the tour with Johnny and then I'm gonna go back in just see what it's like inside when it's just me alone in a house where over six kids and two adults were killed with an ax what but it's a true story that happened right here that's the front door and they take it out once in a while so for different things you know people the rundles go get it sometimes Dr airport goes and hits it sometimes but now that over there is an original 1917 paper all right this is Johnny here we are inside the ax murder house here we are in the kitchen um basically the whole Clinton story sort of starts in this room uh June 9th 1912 town of Alaska church service which got over about 10 p.m the motors come home with item Lena still under who are just two friends of the family they have a sleepover next day married Beckham the neighbors up at 5 a.m doing their laundry by 8 30 60 seconds something that's not right so she gets a relative to uses key Rossmore on this store he lights a match because it sort of overcast that might walks directly into this bedroom and this is where I normally know were found this is where the two visitors all he sees is two bodies in the bed with a shoe covered wow at that point he runs out because Mary something Terribles happened the authorities come down they find the Mars upstairs so eight total six kids two adults sadly the ax is left down here in this room this is where the ax was found yep you know Rob Aiken was in this room the mirrors covered food at the table bloody water cigarette butts Footprints all destroyed by half the town as they walk through yeah the town just came and walked and looked at the bodies yep it was so bad that medical examiners in here going can you get these people out of here like what do you even doing and the cops go and as soon as I throw them out the front door they come in the back um Detective from Leavenworth showed up about 8 PM he's drunk it's like falling out of the car body stayed in here till midnight so at this point you get vigilante Posse's forming looking for a blood-soaked maniac hiding in a barn which never found Bloodhounds come down the big mob of peoples behind the dogs they go up to FF Jones's house on the corner they stop everybody's like Jones didn't get him dog was going to the bathroom and then I kept going but the mob of people didn't see that they just assumed that Jones had something to do now Jones is his former boss the former boss state senator president of the bank and apparently his son was having enough possibly having an affair with the father that was killed in this house it's rumors yeah the big problem we have is Wilkerson the detective that came up with that came up with that then tried to get people to fit that narrative so that like the one thing you don't do in investigating is come up with your idea of why it happened and make it fit right back then you've got to remember private detectives were known as Shady Shady people um this will tell you a lot about Wilkerson during this he got called down to a murder in Kansas on this train ride down there the guy who killed this lady turned himself in because he's afraid The Bloodhounds would go to his house which they did the lady had a bite mark on her chest matched up with his teeth perfectly open and cut case Wilkerson shows up and goes that wasn't him it's somebody else detectives got half the reward money back then he's willing to throw anyone under the bus gourd money right after this he bought a dead body he created it around the country selling tickets to see it claiming it was John Wilkes Booth he's that same guy that took around the body yep the detective who investigated the Melissa Oscars the same guy that took around that was a fake body that was a real body was not John Wilson I had heard about that and so that's the guy that tried pinning it on Jones none of that wow but local citizens are really thinking that because they've seen the dogs stop there not knowing the dog was going to the bathroom so this guy up the street he was a rich powerful Senator people thought he did it yeah and then it all got thrown out but then he got the dichotomy of Rich powerful Senator he's got the D.A in his back pocket yeah but meanwhile state and local authorities are building a case against forever Kelly from the get-go you know and this guy was just a complete nutmeg you know uh he had a side hustle was like getting stenographer businesses going he'd always get arrested for trying to get one of his ladies to type naked the Reverend was doing this yeah oh my God he did it in South Dakota they threw him in jail up there he's five 220 pounds he inmates are goosing them and picking on him he's bawling talking about killing people in Villisca they put him in his own cell tries hanging himself put him in a mental home for two years he gets out they assign him to a church and during this while he's preaching at this church neighbors would be like man if you saw him outside he wouldn't even talk go outside he's going to Corner in go on and on about the axembers he walks into the he's preaching about it in his sermons he walks into a lady's house in the middle of the night during a blizzard wrapped up in a fur coat and he starts going a big mistake the ax murderer made was turning in a bloody shirt to be dry cleaned and Council Bluffs and this lady is probably going ahead here we go Council Bluffs the bloody shirts turned in to be dry cleaned return address from Macedonia where Kelly was living the big one for me Kelly then starts going yeah this guy's killed before we should pity him we should really have pity on this poor guy who in the world is going to say we should pity a guy who killed six kids with an ax nobody but and when I read that I'm like dude you're so cute he was acquitted I mean waited too so the idea of the killer hit in the Attic or the killer hitting the barn it's also all speculation right the the idea of the early traveling serial killer this new I new idea that's been out yeah they knew about that 100 years ago in fact the Colorado Springs Monmouth Illinois Paola Kansas murders that were the same the law enforcement agencies came to Melissa to discuss it being the same person they left going out no similar but now right or wrong I don't know but the facts are that was a 100 year old story wow every question that people have here detectives question how can you kill eight people when no one wakes up what's there anything sexual like all that was looked into um I mean how can you kill eight people with no one it's a gamityville yeah same sort of thing exactly you know except an ax doesn't make as much noise as a shotgun but still and the cops at a rifle in Amityville well it's thundering rifle on the Next Room sounds nothing like thunder and defeo oh Kelly is a confession that alluded to a shadow gave him the weapon told him to kill felt like he's like Beyond his own control deveo's first confession it's almost that word for word he's changed a billion times since of course eight people killed no one wakes up six people killed no one on the Windows yeah the window I got to show them again it does look a lot so is anything in here from their household uh family photo is little loss and ends trinkets he writes about it it's a lot of period pieces right uh we can go ahead and go off yeah sure wow this is a master bedroom yeah this is where the parents were um the mirror is covered one of the big ax marks left behind from the back swing of the ax really you know wow that's an actual ax Mark yep it's all papered over there's a photo floating around somewhere of a detective back in the day standing here pointing at it like that now why is the mirror covered killer had done that throughout the night um original detectives said it's common for cocaine addicts to not want to see themselves naked in the house with dead bodies which come on that's super specific you know cocaine in 1912 yeah that's what they were saying yeah which oven modern forensics say pillars will cover mirrors because they don't want to see what they've done right bodies were covered I mean it just kind of goes hand in hand so they left it they let he left the mirrors covered yep wow so I've been thinking my almost I would think you would kill the parents first yeah you have to take this threat in the house right Dad was here the mom was there I mean just makes sense wow the attic were probably maybe the killer hit we don't know this is the attic in there yep can we go in there yeah go for it wow oh yikes so you think you hit and waited for them to come home that's what some people think if you go with Kelly he said he walked right in at 1am which seems odd but sometimes the most odd thing is the most I guess back then they didn't really need to lock their doors right this is what made people lock their doors in Villisca nobody locked their doors until this yeah ain't even that for the I mean modern old locks aren't even going to be that much of a deterrent no this has got lots of tea I can remember picking those when I was a little kid to read my sister's diary I mean we're all found sorry this is where who was found bourbon Paul Boyden Catherine they're the more children right right all four of the children are here the ceiling was just tore up with ax marks really everywhere is this that was under all the wallpaper we tore off so quite possibly there's a mark in the middle of the ceiling they found plaster on the floor that didn't match up with anything some of the blood splatter was going sideways so they think at some point he just like did this weird leather face with his chainsaw dance and [Music] so this room was blood splattered yeah everywhere figure they're hit multiple times in the face with an ax each back swing so I'm gonna spray it everywhere it pulled up so much that it ran down the vent here and into the Parlor Room that's where we just were yep yeah and is this the closet that I heard about there was a picture or cry there was only one crime scene photographs that's the downstairs one because they didn't take crime scene photographs back then as much right so it's just a closet for the kids stuff and the family stuff [Music] foreign [Music] shut off right now correct yeah in the basement was built after the fact oh really hot water heater furnace okay I've never seen any mention of the basement anywhere I'll uh I'll go get these people usually people leave pretty quick okay sure where's the I'm not I don't need to use it but where was their bathroom uh the Outhouse oh there's no bathroom in that house and they would have chamber pots that they'd go in at night and then dump them in the morning so if you didn't have a chamber pot your support you didn't have a pot to piss in that's where that that's where it comes from uh foreign [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] alone in the house now it's got an eerie feeling if you see something on camera you let me know write in the comments [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] foreign before I leave I already stayed at the Sally house there's a connection between this house and the Sally house correct absolutely um one the address is 508 2nd Street both exactly the same uh Deb and Tony actually did an overnight here and this is probably 15 years ago right and I kind of recognized them because I watched that sightings episode in the 90s Tony walks in and since he walks in he goes whatever is at their house being the Sally house it's the same thing here he walks into the downstairs Eiden and Lena's bedroom starts hacking coughing throws up a piece of raw bacon where the bacon was found here there's bacon found here right we were touching that earlier you got laying on the floor and I seen it with my it was a big hunk of raw bacon and I was excited had he had Beacon that day and that's what I was it's like this dude would have had to swallow this hunk of raw bacon and throw it up that just impressed
