H. H. Holmes: America's First Serial Killer

Dear God I'm so happy they stopped using the high pitch ding noises in their videos 💀💀

There’s a quest in the game Starfield where you encounter a clone of H. H. Holmes. He’s pretending to be Wyatt Earp and is ostensibly a good guy and not a murderer. But seeing this I wonder if a clone of him would actually have the ability to be a good guy. Was it his upbringing that made him like this? Did he have some kind of head trauma as a child? Or was he just wired to be like this? Given how he said murder came as naturally to him as doing good deeds come to most people, it very well could be the latter.

I like the video, but that quartet music made it nearly unwatchable and UT was totally unnecessary

Apparently you can meet this guy's clone in Starfield. I had absolutely no idea who H.H Holmes was so that's why I'm here. There's been quite a few people I've had to look up thanks to the Crucible in Starfield that I didn't really know of.

This may be minor spoilers so be warned.

There's a planet in starfield called the Crucible where you meet the clones of a bunch of historical people. Such as President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Amelia Earhart, Genghis Khan, Amanirenas the Queen of Kush, Ada Lovelace the first computer programmer, and HH Holmes in disguise. These are just the folks I've met so far so there may be more hiding there.

Most of these I didn't know much about but thankfully this channel has info on most of them. Now I have something to listen to while I'm ship building or at work. Thanks Bethesda!

Murderer or Doctor he still would had killed you 😂 cmon it's 1883.
Here take this Mercury for your syphilis. Must be a good doctor not one complaint from his patients, so good infact they never came back for another visit 😂

What about the stories about a hidden chute that would slide down to a furnace? Unfortunate victims would be pushed down the chute?

Thug shaker

"She couldn't have done much worse and will probably have to support you." - HH Holmes's Mother

When even your own mother knows you won't amount to anything good, ouch.

The first Triple H.

"I was born with THE DEVIL IN ME"

It's an interesting story - tainted by the fact that most of it seems to be the invention of the media to sell newspapers. Pity that.

A man raised to take over a city block, raised by a drug dealer who'd inherited a house in the neighborhood, intending to do the same to a neighbor through a son; raised out of year range, to prevent the inheritance. He had received a memorable alias as his name, very young, and defied press nickname to save from arrest.

I didn't know he went to Texas.

but was he before belle gunnes?

What is the name of the background music you used during this video? It's fascinatingly eerie like a dark fantasy fairy tale and murder mystery. It totally matches the dark subject matter.

Is it weird that i was reading a book called the devil in the white city which is about him? It also had that I was always born with the decil in me quote

Jack the Ripper

After doing research on my family history yesterday I found out that his 7th or 8th grandfather is Tristam Coffin, who is like my 14 or 15 great grandfather, so yeah. Lol

What a stupid title "worlds first serial killer.".

hh holmes was not the first you should do a video on Delphine Lalaurie she tortured and killed her slaves in Louisiana back in the late 1700's

He wasn't the world's first serial killer

Henry Howard Holmes. The original Triple H

Rest In Peace to those that passed away.

That dinging sound is really annoying

Man love your channel just wish you didn't use so many cut away noises and notification noises. Perfect channel for falling asleep too

2022 they made this a game called "the devil in me" I never knew this was a real person

The first recorded……😮😮😮😮

If you rent or sell a house in which a murder had occurred you must inform the potential buyer. “OK, I have a real nice place for you to buy, but there was a murder, or maybe a few murders”. “ How many ? .....”A hundred”, but he was a really nice guy”.

Roses are my favorite

It's all about the Game and how you Play it HHH

We need Jude Law or Ewan McGregor in the series on Hulu

Please stop with the loud music. We're for u and the story.... NOT THE MUSIC. It's too loud and useless.

He was not America's first serial killer, not by a long shot, but k

Hold on☝️ For all those ok/Goooood suggestions for the movie...Here YOU GO! The absolute best film entanglement of creativity and reality.
1. Johnny Depp H.H Holmes
2. Female Interest Noomy or Theron
At last🤯
DIRECTED by: Ridley Scott or Mel.

That's it! Voilaaaaa

America's First Serial Killer..... that we know about.

This really was a golden time for White dudes. You literally could talk your way out of any thing. They were like "well, he's White and has a mustache.."

Oi' where'd that dead baby come from? You know the rules: no cats, no corpses.

passed the bar OR passed pharmacist's exam?

400 years without a serial killer? That's impressive.

What’s with the ear splitting DING, throughout the video?!

I just found out im distantly related to Holmes. Kinda interesting.

HI I'M MINNIE, I'M NANNIE!!

Oh, good god! Who the hell thought it was a good idea to edit in that loud PING!!!! Sound everything there is text in screen. I have to turn this off after less than 3 minutes. Sheesh. WTF?

You should give sources, id like to confirm this for myself not just take some dudes word on the internet, you know?

I often wonder about the connection between financial issues and serial killers/ sexual deviants? Does anyone know? I personally think that Holm's would've killed regardless of motivation. The financial aspects of the murders were incidental. Money would've mitigated the risk of killing. My observation made in no factual info whatsoever;)

This would have been better without the background music.
