H.H. Holmes, one of America’s first documented serial killers, constructed a labyrinthine building in Chicago during the 1893 World’s Fair—later dubbed the “Murder Castle.” This structure, filled with hidden rooms, soundproof chambers, and trapdoors, became the site of numerous gruesome crimes. Holmes lured victims, often young women, into his hotel under false pretenses before disposing of them in sinister ways. His crimes, though sensationalized over time, remain a chilling chapter in true crime history. Was Holmes truly the monstrous genius behind the legend, or has history exaggerated his story? #HHHolmes #MurderCastle #SerialKiller #TrueCrime #SignatureCrimes
