In 1918 New Orleans was plagued by a serial killer known only as the Axeman. He murdered 6 people and injured 6 others. Don’t let his character in American Horror Story fool you into thinking he is a myth, it is based off of a real man who was never caught. In the video above, actor Danny Huston reads a letter the real Axeman wrote to the people of New Orleans warning them that on March 19th he would spare anyone whom was playing Jazz music. That night Jazz bars were in full swing and every home had music pouring out. No one got the axe.

So to commemorate the biggest jazz party in history, on March 19th Lighthouse Tattoo will be hosting a flash special. Each tattoo will be $30 and be available until Saturday, March 23rd. Swing by the shop to set up an appointment!
