Top 10 Most Haunted Houses in America

Villisca Axe Murder House

In 1912 a simple white frame house in Villisca, Iowa was the site of a brutal murder. At the time, an unidentified man killed a total of eight different people on the same night. Residents of the home have reported seeing a man with an axe, perhaps the ghost of the murderer himself.

Others have mentioned hearing children cry, seeing things move, or have even caught shadows out of the corner of their eye. Paranormal investigators have, at several points, been able to gain video, audio, and electromagnetic “proof” for the occurrences, but nothing concrete. This phenomenon has yet to be explained.
