For decades, stories circulated about the “most haunted house in America.” And the whispers told of bizarre murders, gruesome deaths, human experimentation, and visits to the house inspired not only horror stories but even a great inventor’s fascination with death and the afterworld. If any home in the country deserved the moniker of America’s most haunted house, it was this one. However, only some of what you have heard is true...

The average person probably doesn’t know the name of too many architects. It’s not usually something that easily comes to mind, unless you’re an architecture or history buff, but there is one name that most will recognize – Frank Lloyd Wright.

On August 15, 1914, one home became a scene of horror when a grisly murder spree claimed the lives of Wright’s mistress, two of her children, and four others who worked at the estate.

In August 1928, a woman from a tiny town in Missouri was arrested on two counts of first-degree murder. As you might imagine, the arrest of a 56-year-old woman with a reputation as a nurse and healer in the community where she’d lived wasn’t your run-of-the-mill news story in the late 1920s. It was a shocking event to people who lived in nearby St. Louis, but those from Franklin County, where the woman lived weren’t as surprised.

There are stories, rumors, tall tales, and whispers that tell very different stories about the fate of Red Hamilton, John Dillinger's right-hand man for many a heist.
