The Axeman Of New Orleans

A Spirit and a Demon from the Hottest Hell

Jump to AD-FREE Safe House Edition

Episode 497 takes place in New Orleans, 1918. A killer is working the back streets of the Italian immigrant neighborhoods — chiseling through back doors in the dead of night, using his victims' own axes, leaving the money on the table and the bodies on the floor. He will strike a dozen times. He will taunt the city from Hell. He will order New Orleans to play jazz or die — and the city will obey. This is the Axeman.
