    Humanity has achieved great heights. We have landed on the moon, placed a powerful computer in our pockets, cured numerous diseases and brought the world the most evil and deranged serial killers. There are very few that stand out quite as much as H. H. Holmes and his Murder Hotel. 
     
    In fact, his notoriety is so great that Hollywood embarked on a blockbuster about him and now it is even claimed that Britains most notorious serial killer, Jack the Ripper, was none other than H. H. Holmes himself. 
     
    He presided over the "castle". A devilish architectural creation in down town Chicago made specifically to murder people. Trap doors, chutes, false doors, hidden passageways and spy holes made the Murder Castle the infamous building of its age. 
     
    Many victims were beaten to death. Some were strangled. Others gassed. And yet more were tortured on racks before they lost their lives. He was not just satisfied with the gruesome murders of adults, Holmes sadistically tormented and killed children as well. In one case he chopped off a young girls feet and buried her with her sister. 
     
    When he was finally caught, he confessed to twenty seven murders, although it is believed by many that he murdered over 200. But it is not the number of deaths that is the cause of his devilish fame, it is in fact the methods he used. He said that he had been possessed by the devil from the day he was born - and who are we to argue? This is the tale of the evil dark lord of the Murder Hotel - guts and all.

    AS FEATURED ON ORIGINAL GANGSTERS WITH SEAN BEAN'The world's leading expert on Birmingham crime and the Peaky Blinders'You know who the Peaky Blinders are ... It's time to see where they began.At the turn of the twentieth century, Birmingham was seemingly transforming into a wealthy, bustling metropolis, celebrated for its manufacturing and local government. Yet behind this optimistic facade,  the poorest and most vulnerable in society were abandoned. This longstanding inequality aroused unrest, sparking violence and terror from backstreet gangsters who'd become known as peaky blinders.In this fourth instalment of the bestselling series, historian Carl Chinn draws upon his decades of expertise and his own family history to reveal even more about these notorious gangs, going back to where it all began. Chinn exposes the real people whose bloody feuds, murders and maiming, baiting of police officers, bullying of the decent poor, gendered violence, blackmailing, and disturbing roles in political riots and racist attacks made Birmingham infamous as the city of the Peaky Blinders.Peaky Blinders: The Real Gangs and Gangsters is a vivid and shocking portrait of Birmingham through the Victorian and Edwardian eras, unpicking the storied history of its vicious gangs to reveal how they forced themselves into notoriety.
