When the Altic Farm House, on the outskirts of La Porte, Indiana burnt down in 1908, locals thought it a tragedy that claimed the lives of three children and their heroic mother, who had died trying to protect them from the flames. During the excavation of the debris, the story flipped on its head as far more than the 4 bodies expected were eventually found. Butchered and cast into pits they were victims of Belle Gunness, a woman the newspapers would come to call the La Porte Ghoul, The Indiana Ogress, The Human Vampire, Hell’s Princess & Lady Bluebeard.

Joined today by my favorite author, true crime extraordinaire and serial killer expert, Dr. Harold Schecter. Harold stopped by Jack Demseys to discuss his incredibly chilling new book “Hell’s Princess: The Mystery of Belle Gunness, Butcher of Men”. Dr. Schechter and I talk about Belle Gunness’ heinous crimes, how she lured men to her farm in Indiana and how she poisoned them and dismembered their bodies. We talk about the mystery that surrounded her death and the rarity of a female serial killer viciously chopping up her victims. Of course Harold and I have some laughs as we discuss what happened to him on his recent Hawaiian vacation.
