This week, Tom and Ben explore the life and crimes of “America’s First Serial Killer” Dr H. H. Holmes.

Holmes lived a troubled life, using multiple identities in multiple states across America. This culminated in the purchase and development of his three-story “murder castle” on a vacant lot in Downtown Chicago.

The Castle - filled with trap-doors, gas chambers, false staircases, peepholes, fake walls and soundproofed torture rooms - was utilised by Holmes to murder up to 200 people…

Has the Holmes case been sensationalised over the years? How was Holmes able to build his “Murder Castle” in plain sight? Did Holmes’ claims of an abusive childhood hold any weight? And could there possibly be more than 200 victims as a result of the evil doctor’s contraptions?

Tune in and all will be revealed!
