" Oh, my God, you're creepy." " Wait a minute." " What?" " He's got his address on Facebook." " And?" " Go!" "No, Ellie." "Look, at least go tell him to take his fucking address off Facebook!" "Jess, you're a Chicago woman." "Do this, bitch!" "Come on!" " Okay, okay, okay, fine." "Whatever." "I'll go... to his house." "But if I get murdered, it's totally your fault."

" Your name is Jessica, right?" "This is Denny." " Yeah." "We gotta go, dude." "We're gonna miss our tour." " Where are you guys going?" " Somewhere you're not." "Ow." " You wanna come?" " Are you sure?" "I mean, it seems like you guys have it all figured out." "Ca..." "Ca..." "Caleb, we don't have room for her on the scooter." "I can drive." " Great, let me get my jacket." " Dude, what the fuck, man?" "I only made reservations for 2 people." " Denny, they're not even gonna give a shit if we bring one more person." "Use your brain." "I like your jacket." " Yeah, I know." "That's why I wear it." "Okay." "Let's go." "Here." " He doesn't have a license." " Then drive carefully." "Okay." "Come on, Denny." "It's the way to Villisca." "Shot gun." "This is a nice car." " So, where are we going exactly?" "Villisca." " Isn't that like a sinus medication?" " What?" "You know what I'm talking about?" "The axe murder house." "Everyone knows what that is." " I'm not from here." "Well, I guess that's something that's good about you." "Dude!" "74 views on our last video!" " I'm driving here!" " Oh." "What is he talking about?" " We do this video ch..." "YouTube Channel thing with Supernatural." " MPI." "We're the Maryville Paranormal Institute..." "I got it." "Caleb and I are.."

" But this is something different, Jess." "8 people, 6 of them kids got their heads smashed in in 1912." " You scared yet?" " Totally." " Are you Denny?" " Yes, sir." " Hah." "I was just about to give up and go." "Well, I'm so glad you didn't." "We... we drove all the way from Maryville." "Nice house." "Alright." "Welcome to the Villisca axe murder house." "Alright." "This is the, uh, foyer." "Okay, so, the murder took place on the night of June 9th, 1912." "There'd been a big gathering at the Presbyterian church in town." "They called it "Children's Day"." "Ever since then, this house has been marked by an evil greater than you can imagine." "People just like you have seen and heard.." "Um, young lady, this way." "Everything will make more sense if we start the tour from upstairs." "Come along." "It's believed the killer entered the house around midnight climbed these very stairs.." "Right." "This way." "J.B. Moore was the first to get it." "And then his wife, Sarah." " Mrs. Moore was hit 35 times on the top of her head with the blunt side of the axe." "Totes crayballs." "Uh, beg your pardon?" "Let's, uh, go to the children's room." "It's right down this way." "Come on." "Follow me." "Herman was the oldest child, he was 11." "Paul was the youngest, he was only 4." "And Boyd was the middle." "Little Katherine Moore's room was right over here." "All but one of the victims were found flat against their bed." " Why is the mirror covered?" " Well, they found all the mirrors covered that way the next day." "The thought is that the murderer wanted to cover 'em up before he began to kill." " Hey." "They caught the killer, right?" "No." "But there was this one guy a traveling Presbyterian minister." "He confessed but was never..." " Reverend Lyn George Jacklin Kelly." "I did my research." "We come to places like this all the time." "In his confession" "Kelly stated that he woke up in the middle of the night hearing windmills in his head." "And then he went for a walk and ended up here." " Okay." "Thanks." "I'll just put this back." "What happened to him?" "No one knows." "But, you guys wanna see something supercool?" "Ha-ha." "We have the murder weapon." "Right here." "Come on." "That, my friends, is the actual axe itself." "A one-of-a-kind piece of bloody lowan history and genuine American craftsmanship." "Genuine." "Okay." "Right this way." "Caleb." "Let me see your teeth." "Aah!" "Murder boner." " This is where Lena and Ina Stillinger died." "They had been guests of the Moore's that night due to what happened to the power." " The power?" " Yeah." "The electricity in the whole town went out the night of the murders." " True story." "That's how the Stillinger girls ended up here." "She was found in the center of the room." "Her underwear had been removed and very bad things had been done to her." "Let's go back to the foyer."

"You know, these things are all hype anyways." " No, we just didn't see the whole thing." "We didn't see the bloody clothes we didn't see the Children's Day mask." "We didn't even get to go in the cellar." "Which, apparently, they take you down there and, apparently, it's fuckin' awesome." "Probably a shitload of other stuff, too." " Look, Denny, we can come back some other time." "Did you really just say that?" "Why'd you jump the ropes?" "I heard something." " Really?" " Yeah." "It was like the sound of an old record player or something." "Are you fucking with me?" "That sounds awesome." "Yeah, well, then grandma death popped out and scared the shit out of me, so.." " She gave you like lazy eyes." " It was fuckin' scary, man." " Yeah." "Well, I guess we should get back to Maryville." "Finish packing." "Well, maybe we could take our own tour." "Later tonight?"

"My friends and I used to break into empty houses and have parties all the time." " Really?" " Yeah." "Most places are pretty easy to break into." "And I bet these two fucking whackos aren't coming back here tonight." "I mean, where would they sleep, with the mannequins?" " I mean, it is kind of the tour you always wanted, Denny." "Yes." " Now we'll just have to wait until it gets dark." "Well, holy shit." "Cool." "Ladies first." "Okay, follow me." " Oh, shit." " Oh, gosh." "Watch out." " I'm going upstairs." " Okay." " Weird." " "I survived the Villisca Axe Murder House." Hm-hm." " How do they come up with this shit?" "Oh." "Oh, thanks." "And to the Republic for which it stands one nation under God." " You know, they added that part in 1954." "Which part?" " "Under God."" " Oh." "And who were we under before that?" "I don't know." "Maybe we should ask the Moores." "Ooh." "Nice." "Oh." "Geez!" " Oh, be careful." " I will." " You alright?" "Yeah." "One-of-a-kind?" "Hey, let's take a picture." "Come on." "Come on." "Okay." " It's bright." " Yeah." " Let me see." " No." "Um, I, I wanna mess with it first." "What are you doing?" " I'm gonna post it to Instagram." "Alright?" "Yeah?" "Hey." " Hi, Denny." " What's up, man?" " What are you guys doing?" "You coming upstairs?" "Come on." " Shit." " Goddamn, you are a pussy." "What are you talkin' about?" " What the fuck are you talking about?" " I heard Shelly..." " Oh, fuck Shelly!"

"Dowsing rods, candles everything you might need to light this place up." "Notice the concentration, intensity on her beautiful young face." "She wants to know what we all do." "Where are the children?" "You should ask something." "Come on." "Okay." "Ghost people.." "You wanna pull my finger?" " Dude, it's supposed to be serious." "No, it's supposed to be fun." "Denny." " Oh.." "Okay, let me try." "Okay." " You ask it a yes or no question." "For these to work, you have to hold these very still." " I'm trying." " I know." "So get it right." "Okay." "Okay." "Let's try to talk to.." "Lena." "Lena, my name's Jessica." "Don't be afraid." "We know something really bad happened to you here but we're not gonna hurt you." "Are you there?"
