In 1892, two people were murdered in their home at 92 Second Street in Fall River, Massachusetts. Over a hundred years later, that home was turned into a bed and breakfast and museum named for Lizzie Borden, their daughter and stepdaughter, and their alleged killer. 

In this podcast episode, I examine why this B&B was created, how it operates, and the larger cultural implications of its work. I also explore why this case continues to fascinate and what it suggests about American history writ large.
