Part 3 - H.H. Holmes: The Confession, Execution, and the Jack the Ripper Theory

"I was born with the devil in me."

With those chilling words, H.H. Holmes sealed his fate. After years of fraud, deception, and unspeakable murder, America’s first documented serial killer finally faced justice. But for a man who had spent a lifetime manipulating everyone around him, Holmes had one final game to play.

In his final days, Holmes spun a tangled web of half-truths, outright fabrications, and eerie confessions—claiming to have killed 27, 100, or even 200 victims. Some of the people he "murdered" were later found alive. Others disappeared without a trace, their fates forever lost to history. Even as the noose tightened around his neck, Holmes seemed to revel in the legend he had created, smirking as if he still had one last trick up his sleeve.

And then there’s the ultimate mystery: Could H.H. Holmes have been Jack the Ripper? The eerie similarities, the gaps in his timeline, and a shocking handwriting analysis have kept the theory alive for over a century. But is it true? Or is it just another carefully crafted illusion from the greatest con man of the 19th century?

From the sensational trial to his gruesome execution, from the horrors of the Murder Castle to his supposed connection to the most infamous killer of all time, this episode of Ontario Cold Cases - Canada’s True Crime Podcast unravels the final, chilling chapter of H.H. Holmes.

But even in death, the legend refuses to die.
