H.H. Holmes: The Beast of Chicago Files Unsealed explores the crimes, deception, and legends surrounding Herman Webster Mudgett—the man better known as H.H. Holmes. Against the backdrop of 1890s Chicago and the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, Holmes became notorious for murder, fraud, manipulation, and the mysterious building later sensationalized as his “Murder Castle.” Each episode examines a different piece of the Holmes story—from his early life and elaborate financial schemes to the disappearance of people in his orbit, the Benjamin Pitezel case, Holmes's eventual capture, trial, confessions, and execution.
