  • Tom and Barbara’s new house, 1462 F St. in Sacramento was the former home of infamous serial killer Dorothy Puente (Death House Landlady). Puente ran the property as a boarding house, where 7 bodies were found in her backyard.
    From Director and Producer, Nicholas Coles:
    “Dorothea Puente was a career criminal who lived a tragic life. She was orphaned at a young age, suffered from mental illness and abused - all experiences that can lead to a life of crime. She was in and out of jail her entire life. She married four times. Over time her crimes escalated to murder. While running a boarding house she murdered seven of her tenants and buried them in her yard. These were shadow people; people Dorothea took off the street, people that no one noticed were missing. If it wasn’t for a dogged social worker - Dorothea might never have been caught.
    She wanted to be a “somebody.” She was constantly changing her name and trying to reinvent herself. She made herself into a pillar of the community - someone who attended political fundraisers, donated money to Hispanic causes and looked after the sick and homeless. But secretly she was murdering her tenants, burying their bodies in her backyard, and cashing their social security to fund an extravagant, albeit altruistic lifestyle. Everything about her and her story is full of contradictions. Dorothea maintained her innocence right until the end, even after she published “Cooking With a Serial Killer.” She died in prison in 2011 at age 82.
    Tom and Barbara reinvented the house into a sunnier Sacramento landmark and brought together the community around it. This house of horrors is now filled with joy and its infamy can help other people. Since the film was finished Tom has added one more sign to the house. It says: ‘The House is Innocent.’”

    They are the cutest couple. It's adorable that they met only ne and he had competition but won her heart. Id love to meet them in person their energy is contagious.i can't stop myself from smiling at the jokes they made. They turned a creepy, sad, house of horrors into a character that fits their personalities and still keeping the horrible history alive in a tasteful way. im happy it's no longer just sitting there wasting away.

    Love them!!! I have zero doubt they brought peace to the kind souls there and they probably linger because it’s so beautiful, filled with love and laughter. Any home needs that, old homes love it Bc they have history, historic homes have walls and residents other than the owners who have seen times of unthinkable horror as well as beauty…the energy remains. In this case this couple healed and renewed not just for them or the physical home but for souls. It’s a beautiful thing!!!✨💫🌙

    One is very glad to see that a smashing couple have taken over and have restored Dorotheas old 19th century home . Also the fact that this particular house is so famous in the world of criminology and has been written about in so many crime books and has also been documented in various tv programmes over the years . Had Barbara and Tom had not had the foresight to restore the famous local landmark then it could very well have ended up being lost forever like other historical places of interest ?. One hopes to visit it to see it in realise myself one day . Excellent work Barbara and Tom.

    They capitalized on a good deal, got a beautiful historical home, and they luckily have a good sense of humor and I think you'd have to. I'm glad it wasn't torn down, you have to be able to find something light in tragedy. This is the how we grow from pain. I live a few blocks away from the place and I'm happy there's love and light brought to a place where so many sad and terrible things happened.

    One thing is for sure, I think this was the right homeowners to help this house. The sense of humor seems to help people adjust reminding everyone that the building was, is, and will be a home. This couple obviously loves their home enough to help everyone accept that dark chapter of the house’s history shouldn’t define it. Also was nice that the detective returned back to share his part of the events that changed the house’s reputation, and was gracious to the couple.

    It's amazing how everyone in the neighborhood never had a Clue, & always refers to the Murderer as such a Nice Person. People Narcissist always come off as overly nice - listen to them & look beyond the Fake Niceness for they will often speak negatively against others who are really the Nice Ones.

    What people can't realize is that the home was built in 1890 & considered an historic part of the history and therefore can't ever be torn down. They purchased the home 22 year's later and the house had been lived in many times after Dorathea lived there. They're right, the house got a bum rap and I'm glad this couple love the home. For me it feels right to have loving people in the home and to give homage to the people who lost their lives there.
