Bloodstains

Bloodstains

Bloodstains is the startling tale of one manâ€™s search for the truth after inheriting the personal diaries belonging to his great-great-grandfather who he discovers was Americaâ€™s first and most notorious serial killer Herman Webster Mudgett. Better known by his alias H.H. Holmes, Mudgett was the mass murderer who struck terror into the nation by being the proprietor of the infamous Murder Castle and stalking the streets of Chicago during the 1893 Worldâ€™s Fair. During his incarceration awaiting execution, well over a century ago, Holmes admitted killing 27 innocent victims, but the evidence the author locates indicates hundreds more likely. From his investigation, Jeff Mudgett, the direct descendant, learns that Holmesâ€™ reign of terror was worldwide and not limited to Chicago as has been so widely believed. Based upon never before revealed historical facts, Jeff pieces together a dynamic and extraordinary puzzle, including the strong possibility that Holmes was also Jack the Ripper.
Far more than a documentary, Bloodstains is precariously balanced on the very edge between non-fiction and the paranormal, as the authorâ€™s research of his evil ancestor quickly takes on a personal aspect. Jeff soon fears his efforts may have awakened the legendary â€˜Holmes Curseâ€™ of the 1890s, the one investigated and written about by most of the nationâ€™s major publications, including The New York Times. In fact, the deeper he digs into Holmesâ€™ devilish past, the stronger the monsterâ€™s hold on him seems to become, testing the limits of his own sanity, as well as humanity. Racked by a mysterious and never before experienced epilepsy, Jeff suffers crippling grand mal seizures whenever he disobeys the haunting voices in his head. Finally, with nowhere else to turn, Jeff is forced to make the decisions of his genetic lifetime in a life-or-death struggle in order to win the greatest prize of all: his survival.
