Title: The torture doctor by David Franke ISBN: 0-8015-7832-9 Publisher: Hawthorn Books Pub. Date: 1975 Format: Unknown Binding |
Average Customer Rating: 4.67 (3 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: What a wacko!
Comment: Meet Herman Mudgett...This guy was seriously a nut job. And what was hard for me to grasp was the fact that he was so calm and collected in everyday life you never would have expected it. Completely jammed full of information on one of the first serial killers in the US (Late 1800's). It tells about the "Castle" he built with torture chambers and secret passages, his forms of torture and eventually murder. With single women coming to Chicago for jobs, and the Worlds Fair drawing so many people he had all the victims he could ever want. While completely gross, it is none-the-less, a riveting read. Highly recomended.

Summary: The Torture Doctor
Comment: The Devil in the white City does not have enough information, for any one who only wants to know about the Holmes Case. The best books to buy is Depraved and the Torture Doctor. I highly recommend these books!!!!!!!

Summary: The Torture Doctor
Comment: Very well organized and written account of the life of Herman W. Mudgett, alias Dr. H. H. Holmes, who is credited with as many as 300 murders in the late 1800s. Most of those murders took place in his "torture castle" in Chicago. This book, in this reader's
humble opinion, is better organized and livelier than Harold Schecter's later work, DEPRAVED.
