We’re kicking off a massive three-part deep dive into one of the most infamous figures in true crime history—H.H. Holmes. But before we get lost in the halls of his so-called “Murder Castle,” we’re easing into things with a look at the world he was born into. What was America like in the late 1800s? How did young Herman Webster Mudgett become the man we now know as H.H. Holmes? In this episode, we’re peeling back the layers of history, setting the stage for the horrors to come.
Stay tuned for Part 2, where we explore his move to Chicago and the construction of his twisted masterpiece, and Part 3, where we finally dig into his grisly crimes. Buckle up, folks—this one’s going to be a wild ride.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
