About this listen

Unravel the larger-than-life story behind America’s most infamous conman.

Remembered as the epitome of a conman and cold-blooded killer, Dr. Henry Howard Holmes is an enigmatic figure whose shady business dealings and natural tact for deceit caught the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition by storm. Amid a swirl of sensationalist rumors and wild stories, Holmes’ crimes are shrouded in a layer of mystery that has baffled historians and journalists for over a century.

Brought to life with a gripping historical narrative, this true crime biography sifts the facts from the fiction, painting a definitive picture of Holmes’ story. Including his ingenious cons and swindles, his many romantic flings, and the infamous “Murder Castle” that became a target for attention-seeking reporters, listeners are invited to witness how Holmes wrapped himself in a web of lies and tall tales that baffled police and continues to challenge historians to the modern day.

As an enjoyable and deeply informative listen for true crime fans, serial killer fanatics, and history enthusiasts, you’ll discover how Holmes’ legacy of sleazy crime and remorseless murder came crashing down in spectacular fashion – along with how the fallout continues to shape the public stereotypes of conmen to this very day.
