The Villisca Axe Murder House: Unsolved Mystery, Still Haunting Today.

The Villisca Axe Murder House: Unsolved Mystery, Still Haunting Today.

Welcome To The Oddity Shop, Where The Bizarre is Always on Sale.  This week, your Curator Kara is keeping with the Axe Murder Trend.  Eight people are alive after a small town church program in Villisca, Iowa. By morning, the Moore family and two visiting children are gone, the house is staged in ways that make your skin crawl, and the investigation is already falling apart. The Villisca Axe Murders are infamous for the brutality, but what keeps pulling us back is the weirdness: covered mirrors, covered faces, a killer calm enough to move through the home and even cook food, then vanish with no conviction ever coming. We walk through what’s known about the 1912 timeline, the victims, and the suspect list that still fuels true crime debates today. We also talk about why these family-in-bed attacks feel connected to other unsolved axe murder cases, and how a lack of forensic tools plus a contaminated crime scene can lock a case into permanent limbo.

The Devil In Devon: Satan's Footprints In The Snow

Welcome To The Oddity Shop, Where The Bizarre is Always on Sale.  This Week, Your Curator Zach is trekking through the English Country Side. The Devil’s Footprints of 1855. A winter storm wipes Devon clean like a blank page, and by morning someone has written a message across it in hoof prints. Not a scattered trail, not a looping animal track, but a single-file line that seems to march straight through the countryside for miles, ignoring fences, walls, and common sense.   Small cloven hoof prints with consistent spacing, reports of the trail continuing over rooftops and up vertical surfaces, and moments where it appears to stop at front doors before showing up behind homes. As newspapers and clergy latch on, the story spreads from local shock to a national obsession, with investigators collecting sketches, witness reports, and attempted explanations. If you like paranormal history, unexplained phenomena, cryptid lore, and true mysteries that still don’t have a clean answer, hit play, share this with your favorite skeptic, and then subscribe and leave us a review so more oddballs can find the show.

The Hinterkaifeck Murders: Mystery Remains On The Farm

Welcome To The Oddity Shop, Where The Bizarre is Always on Sale.  This week, your Curator Kara has an unsolved murder. Footprints in fresh snow lead straight to a farmhouse… and then stop. No trail away. That single detail captures why the Hinterkaifeck murders still get under our skin a century later: a remote Bavarian farm, a family with a dark private life, and a killer who may have been closer than anyone imagined. In this episode we unpack how six people were murdered near Munich in 1922 with no confirmed killer to this day.  The story isn’t just “unsolved true crime.” It’s a knot of motives and warning signs: an incest conviction that isolates the family, bitter paternity disputes, and a household full of fear. We talk through the reports of attic footsteps, a missing house key, strange footprints that don’t return, and a newspaper no one ordered. Is it a haunting, a stalker, or a “frogger” secretly living in the attic or basement? That question becomes even darker once you learn what happens next.  If you love unsolved mysteries, historical crime, and paranormal-adjacent dread that might have a real-world explanation, hit play.

30 East Drive: The Black Monk of Pontefract

Welcome To The Oddity Shop, Where The Bizarre is Always on Sale.  This Week, Your Curator Zach is taking us to the most haunted home in England. A teenage girl jolts awake after midnight with invisible pressure crushing her throat, her bed shaking like something is trying to throw her off, and dark red finger marks blooming on her neck. That moment is the turning point in the case of 30 East Drive in Pontefract, West Yorkshire, a modest brick house that’s earned a lasting reputation as one of the most haunted homes in England and even Europe.   We open the door on the Black Monk of Pontefract, tracing how a family’s “new home routine” turns into classic poltergeist activity: knocks that seem to answer back, flickering lights, objects moving on their own, unexplained pools of water, strange foam from taps, and footsteps that grow louder until neighbors and police can’t ignore them.  If you’re into haunted house stories, paranormal investigation, poltergeists, and the messy line between skepticism and belief, hit play, then subscribe, share this with your favorite oddball!
