In 1893, the World’s Fair turned Chicago into a city of electric light, and on 63rd Street a man calling himself Dr. H.H. Holmes was building something very different. In this Halloween special of The Conspiracy Podcast, Eric, Sean and Jorge tell the true story of Herman Webster Mudgett, the New Hampshire farm boy who became a con man, a bigamist and one of the most notorious killers in American history.
Eric, Sean and Jorge follow Holmes from medical school, where he learned to cash in on corpses, to the maze-like “Murder Castle” in Englewood. They cover the women who disappeared from his building, the insurance scheme that turned deadly in Philadelphia, and the three children he took across the Midwest and into Canada. They also follow Frank Geyer, the Philadelphia detective who went city to city with the children’s photographs in his pocket until he found what Holmes had done.
Then come the conspiracies. Was H.H. Holmes really Jack the Ripper, as his own descendant claims? Did he escape the gallows and flee to South America? Who set fire to the Murder Castle while he sat in a jail cell? Where did the legend of 200 victims come from? And did a curse follow everyone connected to the case? Eric, Sean and Jorge separate the documented crimes from the tabloid legend in a story that’s dark, strange and true.

This is 9/11 Stories, real accounts of the people who lived it, so they’re never forgotten.

Nine and a half years after President Bush said he wanted Osama bin Laden “dead or alive,” Navy SEALs entered a compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Thirty-eight minutes later, the most wanted man in the world was dead, and his body was gone within a day. In this final chapter of The Conspiracy Podcast’s 9/11 series, Eric, Sean and Jorge follow the hunt from start to finish, as the War on Terror unfolds around it.
The story starts at Tora Bora in 2001, where bin Laden was within reach and walked away. It moves through the Iraq detour, the black sites and the courier whose nickname finally led investigators to a three-story compound with no phone line, no internet and a tall man who paced the courtyard but never let a camera see his face. Then the hosts walk through the raid minute by minute, from the helicopter crash in the courtyard to the competing accounts of who fired the shots, and the White House story that changed in three days.
Then come the questions the government never answered. Where is the proof? Why were no photos released? Why did no sailors watch the burial? The hosts rank the theories from believable to far-fetched and open the files from the compound itself, including the details that were never meant to become public.
Whatever you believe happened that night, there’s one thing nobody has been shown.

You’re running late. A phone call has put you half an hour behind, and you’re hurrying up Washington Street, trying to hail a cab. You’re forty years old, with a ten-month-old son at home and nearly ten years at Cantor Fitzgerald behind you. Your husband, Greg, is on the 84th floor of the South Tower.
You push through the revolving doors of the North Tower and turn toward the elevators. Then the floor jolts beneath you.
This is 9/11 Stories, real accounts of the people who lived it, so they’re never forgotten.

Eight parts. Ten hours. Thousands of documents, hearings, missed warnings and unanswered questions. Now it's time for the hosts to make the call.
In the finale, Sean, Jorge and Eric each give an uninterrupted summation of everything the series covered, from the Cold War roots of Al-Qaeda to the morning the towers fell and the years of questions that followed. Patreon members voted on the speaking order. There's no banter and no tangents, just three hosts laying out what they believe happened on September 11th and why.
They've spent months in the same evidence, and they've each landed somewhere. Do they agree? Where do they split? And whose case will make you rethink your own?
If you haven't heard the rest of the series, go back to the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and The Rise of Al-Qaeda, then start at Part 1. The summations build on everything that came before.
You decide: Once you've heard all three, join the hosts in the After Hours and vote in the Spotify poll for the one you agree with most.
Coming up: The War on Terror and The Hunt for Bin Laden.
