Welcome to Englewood

Welcome to the World's Fair Hotel.

The infamous structure, known today as the "Murder Castle" or just "The Castle," stood at the corner of Wallace and 63rd Streets in Englewood, Chicago, Illinois. It was designed and built by Dr. Henry Howard Holmes, America's first documented serial killer.

Although it was constructed before and existed after, it is remembered most for being the mirroring, darker image of the World's Columbian Exposition (Chicago World's Fair) of 1893.

So come along with me through the twisting, mazelike corridors and discover the secrets behind the murders, the madness, and the man who changed America.
