54: HH Holmes (Part 2)

We are back with part 2 of our take on notorious serial killer HH Holmes. Last week we told you about his early life and crimes and this week we take a closer look at what happened next. We discuss the infamous "Murder Castle" which may not have been as sinister as it was made out to be. We pick apart how the press at the time kept upping Holmes' body count. And of course we tell you all about the crimes that Holmes committed and how he was eventually caught. We had lots of fun researching this case and we hope you enjoy listening!FURTHER READING:H. H.
