I'm always intrigued by the stories of serial killers in the 19th century because serial killers really weren't prevalent or popular until around Ted Bundy's time.
Conspiracy I think not. It's the people that you would think.. Ah that person would never do that. Power money or fame. Priming us for the horrors to come out about who really is who to be continued.
Very possibly Jack the Ripper. He was in London at the time and bears a striking resemblance to the eyewitness description of Jack. His descendants claim that they were one and the same.
Their MOs are too different. And HH was in the US the whole time, not London. Travel took too long back then so he couldn't go back and forth that fast. Still so fascinating as a criminal though
I laugh (in a shocked but expected sorta way) at the nature of the guy who at every turn goes out of his way to be evil, sad as it is for people, I guess it's got something to do with a cartoon character with a funny looking mustache up to some unthinkable wickedness that strikes me as humourous in a surreal sense. It's that or discomfort trying to process the pace of the video, as the torrent of his evil acts are divulged with such ease, one after the other, and as a way to process it all - similar to how people nervous laugh during traumatic stress as a coping mechanism.
Nothing gets me more than the utter hypocrisy of him asking for his dead body not to be dug up and tampered with. Like dude….dUDE, you have no right to be asking for that!!
Also I've read that no one knows the exact floor plan of the building because it was build by multiple contractors.. Each time he would quarrel with and fire them.. Actually it was his tactic so that no body would know the exact floor plan
There is a book, devil in the white city, about H.H. Holmes and his murders during/at the world’s fair, and also about the designers building the world fair. I definitely recommend the books.
This story has some huge holes, no sane person would let 3 of their kids leave with a stranger they never met before. There's so many different versions of this story that it's impossible to know if any of it actually happened.
@creocrimson836 I mean this is a sped up story missing detail. If you begin dating someone and let say they want to take your kids to the grocery store. It can happen. Especially if he starts caring for her she got little reason reason to doubt him.
Where that building used to be is now a Post Office. Esp. in the basement & sometimes thoughout the building weird things happen. Smells of cigar smoke, slaming doors, packages moved. Crazy stuff took place back in the day...Maybe some souls can't or won't move on...who knows.🤘👻💖
Challenge suggestion: I think it would be a cool idea for your favorite guinea pig (but the comments section's favorite author) to play a video game based around couples and play it with his lover. The game: It Takes Two Challenge: Can these two love birds work together or get divorce/ break up? This challenge is to test if they really can work together and finish a whole game in a day or two without getting mad at each other or quit the game. They have to try not to get mad at each other whenever one of them mad a mistake. This should be a fun challenge for him and his gf. If he succeeds in this challenge you should send him and his lover on a romantic adventure like a resort or a fun day in the mountains, or whatever they like to do. But if he fails then he and his lover should go on their romantic trip but has to dress like one of the main characters of the game for 2 days during the trip. The trip should be 2 weeks so he shouldn't get to embarrassed. Please do this challenge and please let the guy and his girlfriend take breaks.
His crazy torture dungeon was diabolically clever. My channel did a video about serial killer lairs and dungeons and one guy was able to hold several women "Silence of the lambs" style by putting them in a deep hole.
Why isn't anyone calling themselves an investigator trying to find out who is hiring the serial killer types? Is it because they are afraid to since they might lose their paid job when doing so?
He's so deterministic to be evil. He straight up has money , family and constantly without fail always chooses the most evil option .
Qpl
Sometimes the satisfaction of a man is more than you think
Like Dio Brando

I do not understand how there isn't a hollywood movie about this guy. I mean his true life story is straight out of a horror film.
Or a comedy
Actually Leonardo Dicaprio bought the rights to the film in 2010. A movie adaption of the book “The Devil in the White City”.

ok
True.I wonder why they are more common now.
Just because we are more aware of them now does not mean they were uncommon. After all, modern organized police is hardly a hundred years old.
@@harrietharlow9929 , because media is more widely accessible.

I'd like to see someone write a Sherlock Holmes book where he stays at this hotel and has to get out and capture H.H. Holmes
You wonderful mad person 👀👀👀
I think that's a good idea, but it may undermine the work of the actual police officers
Holmes vs Holmes
@@phobos2076 There can only be one.
@@lazarus8018 what if jack the ripper stayed at that hotel?
What he did to that guys kids is unforgivable it gives me chills of sadness.
As opposed to the other murders that were forgivable I presume
@@MizManFryingP No they’re all unforgivable
@@MizManFryingP but the childs ones were even worse. They got to live for so little..
Ah, it's been a few months. Now I'm back to learn new things from Infographics Show

There’s a reason Sherlock because a detective

It gets even better when you see the name as Hank Hill Holmes

He has no known descendants, because the ripper's identity is still unknown.
I listened to a podcast about this. It was very convincing
Yes.
Their MOs are too different. And HH was in the US the whole time, not London. Travel took too long back then so he couldn't go back and forth that fast. Still so fascinating as a criminal though
@@tacocat-c Last Podcast did an amazing series on this and it's funny
This was a gruesome story. I’m not going to lie. I laugh at some parts. Not the murders. But, Holmes as a con artist
It's sad how many people especially innocent females were easily manipulated in those times 😭😭

So this is where WWE got the inspiration for “Triple H”
No, not at all
😂
Lol the cerebral assassin nickname makes more sense now 🤣
I literally was just thinking that 😂
“It’s time to play the game” seems like something H.H Holmes would have said.
The two dislikes are his accomplices
LOL
What a gravely discovery....
He Has 38 Accomplices Now. This Rabbit Hole Runs Deep!

Could've used this video last year for my psych project lol
Or you could think about how psychology is more than just crazy killers and mental illness. Lol
You could have also just done your research yourself instead of waiting for someone else to do
PSA: Do Not use Infographics videos as confirmed factual information. You’ve only got a 50/50 shot what they said is actually true.
@@Stowneyo that's literally what I did
@@arinhash then why did you need this video last year?youre just lazy or something?
The infographics show is very consistent with providing incredibly great quality videos to us.

This is by far the greatest channel ever made
Sherlock Holmes in alternative timeline: A detective
Sherlock Holmes in OUR timeline: A serial killer
Fun fact: the prison where HH Holmes was hung is now an Acme supermarket.
I swear this is where i’m getting my nightmares but still watch
For some reason, these channel videos helps me relax from my anxiety.
Devil in the White City by Eric Larson is one of my favorite books all about this I highly recommend
I couldn't finish it. The descriptions of how he dismembered his wife and stepchild were too much for me.
Scotland Yard: Mr Holmes we need you to arrest Mr Holmes Sherlock Holmes: alright then
There is a book, devil in the white city, about H.H. Holmes and his murders during/at the world’s fair, and also about the designers building the world fair. I definitely recommend the books.

“When the bodies hit the dissecting table” doesn’t have the same ring to it as let the bodies hit the floor 😂😂
Dude, I literally searched up, “Why do girls take so long to reply?”
One of the most sadistic killers ever and yet I only heard of him from a Supernatural episode
He was also on "Timeless", the series.
@@Litha_Dyonasegood to know
He was also suspected to be Jack the Ripper
Personally I Believe He Was.
@@user-tm6im9nt1z I personally believe that as well.
But the ripper killings were in London, not the usa
@@michaeljoseph1721 Holmes actually went to London multiple times.
The ripper was much more violent in how he killed. It would be quite a change in M. O.
Fun fact, they did dig that THING up. Few years ago actually. There's footage of it.
Thx recommended
i cant imagine being in a pitch black room that you cant sit down in and starving to death. jesus christ!

Love this channel can watch for hours. I need to be sleep gotta go to work but can't stop watching 😂
Well we know how Sherlock gets when he’s without a case :)
this channel makes me regret not picking history gcse
This MAN
he took killing to Whole other lvl!!
Anyone remember Last Podcasts on the Lefts coverage of H H Holmes
My name in Minnie and this is my Sister Nanny
HI IM NANNY.

Just a note: William A. P. White, better known under his pseudonym of "Anthony Boucher," also used 'H. H. Holmes" as a pseudonym.
I can't believe this guy doesn't have a movie.
They have a game name the devil in me
best show around.... FACTS
In my recent family tree I have the names Mudge and Manson. At least I have an excuse for being a born serial killer enthusiast.
Is this a reupload? I swear I've seen this on the channel before
Yo fr
Same
Maybe I will search for it
They did make another video about Holmes but not the same as this one unless they deleted it
some videos are about the killer and some are about how they caught it
It actually sounds like it could've come from a Sherlock Holmes story.
Just when it's 2am and I was about to go to sleep

Reminds me of the surgeon “Martin Whitly” from prodigal son 👀😂
I love history now
just think, in an alternative universe this guy is probably an ace detective instead of the killer you see before you.
Pls do ed kemper pls
This man’s basement was Light Yagami’s dream when he built the drawer trap
If there is a sequel for "at the dead of night" it should be like this
The fact we give these type of people the right to be remembered under a tombstone bothers me.
@Smd247 Isn't it more of a traditional custom than a right?
I just was thinking of this channel
Could you do a Video on Ed Kemper?
Why was the first thing that came to my mind Sherlock Holmes?
It came to everyone's mind😬
I'm surprised Skynd hasn't made a song about him yet. I feel like they could make a really good one with his story.
I drive by the site often, It's a post office now. Some employees refuse to go in the basement 😳
Was he Jack the Ripper? He has surgical training and at one point I think Scotland Yard theorized that the Ripper was actually American
I wonder if infographics knows about Ivan Milat
This guy is the real saw
Well, you got me.
I swear Chicago is cursed
could’ve sworn they’d already done a video on this

Well the begin part
Can you do a video about how they caught the 22. Caliber killer?
Sometimes i tink that Vigilantys and Lookouts in the past would be very usefull...
He didn't die. He was recruited by the... Look at the identities and missing people closely. Also his last request should really say something.
Where can I look this up?
