H.H. Holmes was one of the first documented American serial killers. Holmes opened a castle hotel which he had designed and built for himself specifically with murder in mind, and which was the location of many of his murders.
Yep, at the Chicago World Fair. I forget what year it was though….
DEVIL IN WHITE CITY!
The year the Columbian Exposition at the World’s Fair in Chicago opened was 1893.
H.H. Holmes is straight bananas, you have to read about this dude. Just fascinating shit.
I think there’s a documentary on him that’s on instant watch on Netflix. :< He’s pretty interesting.
