Summary
On today's episode, we feature fecal transplants in our Moment in Oddity and the patenting of barbed wire for This Day in History. The main subject of the show is the horrific true crime, unsolved mystery and haunting of the Moore home in Villisca, Iowa. The infamous crime resulted in the deaths of six family members and two young girls that were staying overnight and the weapon used was an axe. Paranormal groups have reported strange events in the house for years. Is this home haunted? Who haunts it? Is it the family or have paranormal groups brought attachments? Listen in for all the details and then you decide.
