Lizzie Borden

In this episode of the Say What Again Billy? Podcast, the SWAB crew dives into one of the most infamous unsolved murder mysteries in Massachusetts history: the Lizzie Borden case.

On August 4, 1892, Andrew and Abby Borden were brutally murdered inside their Fall River, Massachusetts home. Andrew’s daughter, Lizzie Borden, quickly became the prime suspect and was eventually put on trial for the gruesome crimes. But after a highly publicized court case, Lizzie was found not guilty, leaving behind questions that remain unanswered more than a century later.

The crew dives into the entire case, from the events leading up to the murders and the discovery of the bodies to the investigation, evidence, possible motives, and ultimately Lizzie Borden’s trial. Did Lizzie really murder her father and stepmother? Could she have had help? Or was she, in fact, innocent of the crimes that made her one of the most infamous names in American history?

But the story doesn’t end with the murders. The crew also explores the reported hauntings and paranormal activity that have made the Lizzie Borden House a destination for paranormal investigators from around the world.

Plus, the SWAB crew gives a preview of their own upcoming overnight stay and paranormal investigation at the Lizzie Borden House this August! The entire experience will be filmed and released at the beginning of spooky season.

What really happened inside the Borden home on that August morning in 1892? And could something still be lingering there today?
