Program Description

Event Details

Many people have heard of Herman Webster Mudgett a.k.a. Dr. H. H. Holmes. Many books have been written about his homicidal exploits during the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, but what do we really know about him? What was he really up to in 19th-century Chicago? Where did he come from? What other connections did he have to Chicago and elsewhere? How do we separate fact from fiction? Join former criminal investigator, historian, and author Ray Johnson as we take a closer look at the man who has been deemed “America’s First Serial Killer.”
