概要

Building a Murder Business: H.H. Holmes and the Industrialization of Death

H.H. Holmes wanted to be rich. The murders came later, almost as an afterthought when fraud alone wasn't enough. This is the story of how a talented con artist discovered that killing people was more efficient than fooling them, and how he built an entire business infrastructure around death. We'll explore how Holmes weaponized every modern system America was building—insurance, railroads, the postal service, even architecture itself—to create what was essentially a murder-for-profit operation. From his early body-snatching schemes in medical school to the infamous Englewood building that served as a disposal facility for inconvenient associates, this is about the evolution of a criminal enterprise. We'll follow Detective Frank Geyer's methodical investigation that unraveled a fraud scheme so complex it spanned multiple states, examine why Holmes represents a completely different type of killer than the ones who came before him, and understand how one man's ambition to exploit America's growing pains created a blueprint for understanding profit-motivated murder.
