H.H Holmes Research Report

Abstract H. H. Holmes was one of America’s first recorded serial killers in the 1800’s who would earn the title serial killer for only being convicted of one murder but suspected of at least 9 and as many as 200. In addition to the title of serial killer Holmes will also be known as a con artist; due to the fact that he was able to swindle companies into giving him valuables and supplies on credit, unfortunately for those who were naïve to Holmes charm, they never saw a penny of his money. Throughout Holmes entire life, he managed to stay under the radar using various aliases, and continuously switching the names on the deeds of the property he owned/managed. H. H. Holmes truly was a psychopath and the details of the accounts that make such a claim reasonable.
