Between May of 1918 and October of 1919, a faceless serial killer stalked the shadows and alleyways of the Big Easy.
He would become known as the Axeman of New Orleans, his moniker a result of his weapon of choice.
To this day, the crimes remain unsolved.

Have you ever stopped to think that maybe the Hat Man isn't "menacing," he just has selective mutism due to his crippling social anxiety?
No, you haven't.
Because you only think about yourself.
