Ep. 90: Holmes Sweet Holmes- Winchester Mystery House & H.H. Holmes

Hello spooky people! Technological issues aside, Episode 90 is full of scares. This week’s episode dives into two legendary tales of mystery and madness that will have you questioning what lies beyond its walls. First up, we explore the Winchester Mystery House, a sprawling mansion that seems to have a mind of its own. Built by Sarah Winchester, the widow of a gun magnate, this house is filled with twisting staircases, doors to nowhere, and endless corridors. But is it haunted by spirits seeking vengeance, or is there something else behind its odd construction? Then, we turn to America’s first (and possibly most terrifying) serial killer, H.H. Holmes. Known for his “Murder Castle,” Holmes is popularly known to have lured his victims into a maze of trap doors, hidden rooms, and chilling devices. We'll unpack how just how true those rumors are, and what really lies behind this infamous figure's door. Don’t forget to join the fun!
