Episode 8: Madam Marie Delphine LaLaurie: The Real Life American Horror Story

Marie Delphine LaLaurie was America's first female serial killer
and In a lot of ways, she is the female version of HH Holmes.
LaLaurie had her own version of a murder mansion, where her
slaves became her victims but her crimes were committed almost
100 years before that of HH Holmes and Jack the Ripper. She was
portrayed by the great Cathy Bates in AHS Coven and her mansion
where she committed her atrocious murders and tortures is one of
the most widely visited tourist attractions in New Orleans, and
in all of Louisiana for that matter. LaLaurie would torture,
mutilate, starve and even perform horrendous experiments on her
victims. Join me and my guest host as we discuss the life and
crimes of Marie Delphine LaLaurie and I share with you what it
was like visiting her mansion in person as well as other macabre
sites in New Orleans.
