H.H. Holmes was one of America’s first serial killers who confessed to killing 27 people, although that number could be as high as 200. Many victims were said to be killed in his “Murder Castle” which was a building in the south side of Chicago that was outfitted with trapdoors, gas chambers and a basement crematorium. Holmes was also a con artist, had multiple wives, and was the subject of over 50 lawsuits in Chicago alone.

THEORIES: Were H.H. Holmes’s crimes exaggerated for newspaper headlines? Is H.H. Holmes actually Jack the Ripper? Is Meghan Markle his distant relative?

IN ADDITION: Ali contemplates opening an Ice Creamatorium that would be a combination ice cream/death/sex shop.
