About this listen

The Axeman of New Orleans: A Killer with No Face, No Motive, and No Mercy. From 1918 to 1919, a shadow stalked the streets of New Orleans—slipping into homes, attacking families as they slept, and vanishing without a trace. Some blamed the Mafia. Others swore it was a demon. And some believed there was never just one Axeman at all. This deep dive explores the horrifying attacks, chilling letters, and enduring mystery of one of America’s most unsettling unsolved cases. Was the Axeman a mob hitman, a deranged serial killer, a copycat phenomenon… or something not entirely human? Featuring detailed theories, survivor stories, and the infamous night the city danced to jazz to avoid death. He was never caught. Maybe… he was never meant to be. 📌 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more mysteries!
