Villisca Movie Screening

The first Iowa screening of the recently completed feature film, Haunting Villisca, which was shot on location at the Villisca Axe Murder House and in the Montgomery County Courthouse where the trials were held, will be this weekend. Haunting Villisca, inspired by the unsolved 1912 Villisca Axe Murders of eight people and the present day paranormal investigations of the J. B. Moore Home where the crime took place, will screen March 29 & 30 at the historic Rialto Theatre in Villisca, Iowa.

The Saturday March 29 screening of Haunting Villisca will begin at 7:00 pm and will be followed by a 10:00 pm screening of the behind-the-scenes documentary, A Ghost of a Chance.

The Sunday matinee of Haunting Villisca is scheduled for 2:00 pm with A Ghost of a Chance following at 5:00 pm.

Admission to Haunting Villisca is $10 and A Ghost of a Chance is $5. Both shows may be purchased for a combined reduced price of $12.

An optional buffet dinner will be held on Saturday March 29 at 5:15 pm at the historic Villisca Bank. The $15 dinner tickets must also be purchased in advance.
