About this episode

This episode explores the connections between HH Holmes and the Jack the Ripper murders, highlighting Holmes' methods and theories surrounding his potential involvement in the Whitechapel killings.

Hotellet hadde lydtette rom, hemmelige passasjer, gasskamre og krematorieovner. Holmes inviterte enslige reisende til å bo på hotellet, hvorpå han torturer og drepte dem før han løste opp kroppene deres i syre eller begravde dem i kalkgroper. En teori er at Holmes i 1888 dro på tur til London og dermed ville hatt muligheten til å begå Whitechapel-mordene. Selv om Jack lot sine torturerte ofres kropper ligge fremme for verden å se, gjorde HH Holmes alt han kunne for å skjule sine forbrytelser. Man kan forklare dette som en typisk eskalering av hans modus operandi.
