High society members Andrew and Abby Borden were found murdered in their home in Fall River, Massachusetts in August of 1892. Both of their skulls had been crushed in, and police thought the hatchet they discovered in the basement was the murder weopon. Their 32 year old daughter, Lizzy Borden, who lived in the house with her parents, was the prime suspect, but she was aqquited and the murders were never solved. Over 100 years after the murders, the scene of the grisly crime has been converted into a quaint, yet macabre, bed and breakfast. When guests arrive, they are greeted by a hatchet with “Welcome” pained on it in blood red. And a darkly funny sign inside cautions “please be careful; we've already had two fatal head injuries in the house.” Photos of the horrifying murder scene are hung in the rooms where they were taken, showing how carefully restored the house has been, and guests love to pose and recreate the gruesome scene. Creepy close encounters like phantom footfall sounds and strangely unnatural wind guts are commonly reported, especially when guests use the Ouija Board in the sitting room. Abby Borden's death room, where her body was discovered, in the most popular room in the B and B. It was auctioned off for over 400 dollars on the night of the murder's anniversary this year. And the adjacent Borden Carriage house has been converted into a gift shop which sells hatchet shaped soaps, key chains, and earrings, while grusome Lizzie Borden bobbleheads sell like hot cakes. Check in to this gloriously tasteless and creepy B and B if you dare, but good luck getting a good night's sleep there. Though, if you do survive, I heard the eggs they serve in the morning are to die for. I’m Liesel Hlista for TravelWishTV.com.
