38. HAUNTED LEGACY: The Borden Murders Pt 1

Fall River, MA | We stayed overnight in the Lizzie Borden House to see for ourselves if the many accounts of paranormal activity were real.  We’ll just say it wasn’t exactly uneventful. In this haunted detour from Phoenix, we dive into the ghost stories surrounding the infamous ax murders and uncover a relatively unknown tragedy in the Borden family that happened right next door, and is likely fueling the paranormal activity at the Borden house. Lipton soup, phantom bells, and child spirits in the attics. No shortage of stories to tell here.Follow us for episode photos and more at:📷 Instagram: instagram.com/darkcity.podcast 🪡 Threads: threads.net/@darkcity.podcast 👤 Facebook: facebook.com/darkcitypod✉️ Email:  [email protected]  🔎 Want to see how deep this story really goes?
