Live From The Lizzie Borden House - America's Most Notorious Axe Murderer

from Talk Is Jericho · host Chris Jericho

Rob, Dave and Jesse from Hometown Ghost Stories join Chris Jericho LIVE inside the real Lizzie Borden House in Fall River, Massachusetts to break down the infamous 1892 Lizzie Borden axe murders, one of the most brutal and debated true crime cases in American history. Andrew Borden and Abby Borden were hacked to death with a hatchet inside this house. Lizzie Borden was arrested, put on trial, and acquitted after just 90 minutes of jury deliberation! They dissect the full timeline of the Lizzie Borden case including the mysterious 90-minute gap between killings, Lizzie’s conflicting alibis, the alleged prussic acid poisoning attempt, the burned dress controversy, the hatchet found in the basement, and the shocking autopsy details performed inside the home. They break down the prosecution’s four key pieces of evidence, the questionable police work, the media frenzy that turned this into one of America’s first national true crime sensations, and why the jury came back with a not guilty verdict so quickly. They also examine alternate suspects including Uncle John Morse, inheritance motives, the staged robbery theory, and whether Lizzie’s sister Emma or maid Bridget Sullivan knew more than they admitted. Plus, because this was filmed inside one of the most haunted houses in America, they explore the paranormal side of the Lizzie Borden House including reported full-body apparitions of Abby Borden, shadow sightings of Andrew Borden, EVPs believed to be Lizzie herself, and the infamous basement corner linked to scratches and dark activity. Is this one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in true crime history? Or did history get it wrong? Watch and decide.
