Click Stars Below to Vote!
Represents the entire life of Herman Mudgett, AKA Holmes and his castle of horrors.
Also known as Dr. torture, Holmes designed his own building with torture chambers, where they rented rooms to unsuspecting victims visiting the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago.
It focuses on the life of Dr. Holmes of crime and evil (1861-1896).
Tapping with images instead of the last round Holmes’ as his childhood home in New Hampshire and the Philadelphia courtroom where the trial took place.
It’s a visual tour-de-force of reenactments, expert interviews, and vintage photography.
H.H. Holmes: America’s First Serial Killer ,
Holmes lived in Irvington, In. for a few years before he fled to Chicago. He took in 2 young orphaned brothers killing them both before fleeing. His house is purportedly haunted & is featured on the annual Irvington ghost walk.

Who narrates this clip?
Yes Holmes’ childhood home is in Gilmanton and featured in my film. I spent some time in there with the owners.
I’ve heard that Holmes’ parents’ house is still standing in Gilmanton.
TRUELY ONE OF MY FAVORITE KILLERS,, BUT HIS GREED CAUGHT UP WITH HIM,, THATS HOW HE GOT CAUGHT
Chi-Town!!! My home
Was that the first faire where television was shown?
He was running a pharmacy in a Chicago suburb at the time of the Ripper murders.
I couldn’t agree more, America will turn into a 2nd world country and China will overtake it. Very sad how amazing America use to be, even just 100 years ago, but now it’s utter trash mostly.
I took this dvd out at the library a few years ago. It is interesting and creepy. I have the serial killers profiling dvd set and there is a part on there about him too its up on here as well…
H. H. Holmes nothing better to with his life all he did was jack off to people dying
Last time i checked keeping people as slaves dosent add up to racial unity.
hh holmes quite probably was Jack the Ripper
Despite this one bad man, America was truly magnificent in the 1893, no? We had racial unity and homogeneity. The population was almost all White European Christian. Lovely. Now we have thousands of negro carjackers, gang bangers, rapists, illegal brown mestizos, islamic terrorists, etc. running around loose victimizing White America. THESE were the good old days.
Jack the Ripper was in England. H.H. Holmes is America’s first.
Oh look, another internet wannabe bad man
it is said jack the ripper didn’t quit after london,, that he carried on in new york,, and los angeles
Not bad– But Jack the Ripper did his thing in 1888, Also– People who asphyxiate from that kind of gas just go to sleep, and would never know what hit them.
There is still the one golden lady statue in Jackson Park that is a replica of the Original World’s fair . And there is a bathroom still standing in the park as well
