    Often touted as one of America's first serial killers, H.H. Holmes was said to have constructed a hotel with maze-like hallways and deadly traps in the late 19th century.

    Using Chicago's World Fair as a cover, he supposedly lured hundreds of people to their deaths within his hotel.  The hotel eventually became known as his murder castle and today H.H. Holmes is considered one of the most deadly serial killers to have existed.

    But who exactly was H.H. Holmes and are the stories of murder and his murder castle entirely true?

    Find out the true story of H.H. Holmes and his murder castle on today's episode of Myths, Mysteries, & Monsters!

  • The True Story of The Philip Experiment

    The True Story of The Philip Experiment
    Feb 22 2022
    In 1972 a group from the Toronto  Society for Psychical Research began meeting weekly in attempts to conjure the spirit of a 17th century knight, Sir Philip Aylesford.

    The leader of the group, Doctor A.R. George Owen, had read about the belief that ghosts and poltergeists can created by individuals simply using their minds and wondered if his group could tap into some type of unknown psychic abilities to do the same. 

    The surprising results of their experiment left many with the question, can you really make a ghost out of thin air?

    Find out the true story on the experiments and the theories of what actually happened on today's episode of Myths, Mysteries, & Monsters!

  • The Haunted Railroad Tracks of San Antonio, Texas

    The Haunted Railroad Tracks of San Antonio, Texas
    Feb 15 2022

    In 1938 a tragic accident at the railroad tracks south of San Antonio, Texas supposedly left several children dead and a state in mourning. Just weeks later reports of ghostly figures lingering on the spot where the accident occurred were starting to be passed around.

    Today, the spot is said to house the spirits of the children who lost their lives but they aren't looking to scare anyone, instead they are looking to prevent the same accident from happening again.

    Except, did the tragic accident ever really happen?

    Find out the true story behind the haunted railroad tracks on today's episode of Myths, Mysteries, & Monsters!
