Moonville Tunnel holds a heavy, watchful silence where visitors report a steady, person-like light moving along the tracks, strange time distortion, and an instinctive urge to leave.

This episode traces Moonville’s railroad history, the tragic accidents that shaped it, and the repeated eyewitness accounts that make the tunnel feel like a place that observes and lets you go when it decides you are finished.

In 1912, eight people — a family and two overnight guests — were brutally murdered in a quiet Iowa farmhouse in a crime that was never solved. The Villisca house became a symbol of lingering violence in the heartland.

Decades later, visitors report footsteps, children's voices, sudden illness, and objects moving as if the house still remembers. This episode tells the murders, the investigation, and why the Villisca Axe Murder House continues to haunt and draw the curious.

In this episode of Haunted Heartland we travel to early 19th-century northern Tennessee to tell the legend of the Bell Witch: a series of unexplained noises, physical attacks, and voices that focused on Betsy Bell and culminated in the mysterious illness and death of John Bell.

We explore eyewitness accounts from the Bell farm, the role of the nearby Bell Witch Cave, reported encounters by neighbors and even soldiers, and how the story moved from a local haunting into one of America's most enduring hauntings.
