I did a project on Holmes in high school where I had to reconstruct one of his “rooms” in a shoebox and 5 years later, it’s still my greatest accomplishment 👍
I want to see it!!
But why?
I want to see it too! Sounds cool!
did you murder anybody in the shoebox?
Go off sis flex it up
Why do i always mix him up with Sherlock Holmes even though he never existed
I want to say that you're not the only one....

Ok so, I’m noticing in the comments that a lot of students are talking about their school projects based on Holmes. So my question is, WHY are so many students forced to do school projects on this monster???
I think it's amazing people are being taught about this, I wish my school had done so as well since it's quite interesting and also good for one's safety to know what humanity is capable of.
Jörmungandr I NEVER hear about students being taught on the better things on the opposite end of the spectrum. How about making kids do projects about...I don’t know, not a serial killer, but someone who did some great humanitarian work?? Or how to be better people overall?? It’s supposed to be the parents job to teach children that, I know. There’s just so much more that can be planted into the minds of young adults to better them as people than to learn about this man. Something that will put real values in them.
Some do forenscic classes
@@AstonishingRed sadly, I think we need both
@@AstonishingRed school should have and sometimes do have both. I had to do a project on Anders Breivik but also looked at rosa parks.
I wonder how long it’s going to take the people who whine about no buzzfeed unsolved on every video religiously to realize Ryan and Shane started their own company and will probably leave completely when their contracts are up.

“Holmes would use his final breath to unsuccessfully con his way out of death.”
I don’t really have anything to say I just like this line.
Jean T. Monty if you believe his great great grandson jeffe Mudgetts theory then the statement above is fake. I truly believe he did con his way out of death
@BoB Barker he... He said breath

A Gaaaame theoryyyy 😏
Many years ago I kicked this old man extremely hard.
He said “ aregghhh my groin “. And fell over and i jumped up and down on his stomach.
That old man turned out to be the great great grand son on hh Holmes
I quite like this narrator! Especially those paranormal stories.
Yeah, the deep voice really does it.
Its a computer voice. Listen to it closely and the slight pauses between each word
@switchfoot881 I think so too , he always says woman (singular) when he should say women (plural) as though there was program glitch but I have to say, I’m not a fan of robot voices but if it is a computer voice it’s one of the best ones I’ve heard so far
I miss Ryan and Shane
i prefer the OG boys
Y’all know he’s still alive his new name is triple H and he’s a WWE wrestler

If you didn't know, they are doing it by season. any when they want
I actually have a Sept. 1893 issue of Cosmopolitan covering the World's Fair, thank goodness there were no ads for Holmes' hotel in it.
The fair itself is pretty fascinating, it showcased many achievements of the day that are still impressive today
🍔 if you binge watch serial killer documentaries scary movies aren't going to be that scary to you
NATIVE LATINOS Fook TRUMP I’ve already done that
I've never been scared by scary movies. But after watching the 2000s version of Texas chainsaw massacre after the credits it said it was based off of real events and that scared me.
I don’t get scared when I watch these kinds of content but when I watch horror movies I get really scared lol
Janette Herdfield you should always be safe serial killers looks so normal
I hate scary movies but love serial killer documentaries. One is delivering facts, one is delivering an experience.
We should all hear more about the detective, Geyer, who found the bodies of the kids he killed, both in the US and Canada. What he did was amazing. How did he find them? I’m fascinated by him. He was a hero.
So this is where AHS Hotel was inspired from. And the character of James March too
Imm buzzing for the new film thats coming out about H H Holmes!! Its called ‘devil in the white city’ if anyone cares😀
yes!!!
Is there a rating for it
It's based on a book by Erik Larson. Great author who writes a lot of historical pieces
The book was boring.
It's based on a book called devil in the white city and it's the best book I've read this year. I would recommend to anyone.
Shoutout to my English teacher junior year for assigning “The Devil in the White City”!
@@aleeshaab0440 The book "The Devil in the White City" is not about Jack the Ripper...

Wait what season

stark too I havent watched that one yet I best go to that now
@@Lilbitopoison It's really good season
@@Lilbitopoison I hope you enjoyed it
I love this series. Thank you guys so much for creating it & going into detail of each criminal.
Once the Pinkerton agency got involved. You were screwed, those guys didn't play around. Thank you for the video 😊
The book about him, Devil in the White City, is one of the only books I liked reading in high school.
If Sweeney Todd was scared of a serial killer. It would be this guy.
this is really educational!
5:55
"Them Pinkertons are a constant thorn in my side."
- Arthur Morgan 1899
I remember watching the documentary of him being Jack the Ripper
He very easily could’ve been reports say he was in England at the time and hired people to send notes out when he left
Senali Karunathilake only one of the women Jack the Ripper killed was a prostitute
Yes! That was a good series!
Yeah a relative of his was trying to make the claim. But Holmes was already hanged and buried and they proved he could not be Jack The Ripper
12 34 it is, she was the only woman found inside on a bed. The others were killed simply because they were walking the streets and thus vulnerable. I suggest you read Hallie Rubenhold’s book ‘The Five’ which actually discusses the lives of the canonical five without sensationalising. It is one of the few books that focuses on the victims and works to dispel the myths such as all of his victims being sex workers.
more of these videos please
my brother told me that this video came out because he knows that i'm a true crime junkie and that this is my favorite case
It did.=)
Sounds like a good brother
8:12
H.H. Holmes confirmed to be able to travel through the stream of time to retrieve a Dewalt power drill bit from the future to use in his murders.
Personally, I like these videos. They’re not what everyone subscribed for but they’re still informative and well made!
American Horror Story Hotel which is based on the story of Holmes. Which was the best one yet of the series.
We need more of these kinds of videos.
Subscribers now that Ryan and Shane will probably leave: *you’ll never see me againnnnn*
Video: "I have never committed murder, that is all I have to say"
My dad watching the Bears/Packers game, not knowing I'm watching this video: "He could have done it, he could have."
And then his spirit was caught many years later by Jo and the Winchesters and buried in cement 👍
Emily B. 👏👏👏
Where can we see that ?
@@MrKevosmin In the show Supernatural
I could have sworn he was caught because his neighbors smelled decaying bodies and complained. That must have been a different mass murderer.
I know John gacy's neighbors complained because of the smell, he had mad bodies under his floor boards
Please always do narrations for those with reading impairments. 👍🏻
For more information, I recommend the book “The Devil In The White City” by Erik Larson! It really gives more information on the surrounding situation, with the Chicago World Fair and the reasons how he managed to kill everyone - such as the fact that he sold the skeletons of his victims to colleges and hospitals! It’s really interesting.
This and the Hotel Cecil in Los Angeles were the inspiration for the American Horror Story season Hotel :)
these vids always help me fall asleep??
Holmes had a terribly messed up home life. I did a research paper on him, and both his parents were highly abusive. I could spend hours talking about how things that happened in his youth lead him to be how he was, but I don't have the time
Thank god.
I had to create a timeline of Holmes life for a school project months ago where was this video when I needed it

I'm glad you guys talked about H.H. Holmes. I read "Devil In The White City" and I gotta say H.H. Holmes was a cunning and sinister being. The most disturbing part was that he sold the skeleton of some of his victims to use at schools.(I think it was sold at schools but its been 4 years since i read it so I'm not 100% sure.)
This H.H. Holmes guy seemed like a real jerk.

literally i miss shane and ryan its such a long time since i’ve watched unsolved, and then i got one in my recommendation i click on it and its this one. i try to watch more of the recent videos to find shane and ryan but theres none of them. 😢
Why is this so relaxing
They went over the part of about the murder house and him seducing and murdering young women so fast, this sounds wrong, but I want details...
Ryan and Shane is soon going to get their own thing outside of Buzzfeed sooo that means they'll have more control and freedom with the contents so buckle up guys 👌
@@senalikarunatilake5210 They usually post whatever they're doing in their Instagram accounts and I'm pretty sure the people who work with them in production can come with them if they wanted to.
I wonder what the builders thought while they were making it
AbnormalLemming Another YT doc said Holmes was constantly hiring and firing workers, so each only did a small part, hoping no one would be suspicious of the big picture.
The other guys voice was the main reason I watched these videos his voice gave me chills
Holmes also wrote a book while in prison stating he didnt do it. He also stated why he couldn't have done it which I think is hilarious.
Honestly I do not want to watch buzz feed without Shane and Ryan!
please do a video on the haunted lemp mansion in st. louis!!
This is a much better format
I personally find it hilarious that, like Al Capone, he was picked up on unrelated charges. I’m also tickled the Pinkertons were involved.
Bruhhh I remember watching a show on TV and they were talking about this dude it's so scary hearing about him again
6 feet 140-155 lbs god damn that's damn thin.
Thanks slot, the blown light bulb at 1:15 made my OCD act up so bad I couldn't concentrate on the video!🤬💡
The book Devil In the White City covers Holmes and the Exposition really well and is a great read.
Maybe I missed it but they should have mentioned his quote, “I was born with the devil in me. I could not help the fact that I was a murderer, no more than the poet can help the inspiration to sing.. I was born with the evil one standing as my sponsor beside the bed where I was ushered into the world, and he has been with me since.”
I'm still disappointed that the movie about him with Leonardo Di Caprio didn't pan out. There's a book about this guy called, Devil in the White City. It's an amazing read and they were basing the movie off it. It basically shows the parallel realities of Holmes and his activities with the World's Fair going on at the same time.
Grandad?
👀😳
r/holup
HAHA BRUH
Oh-
Wait what
Do more serial killer videos
Please.
Edmund Kemper for starters
Imagine having the motivation to do this. I mean, yes building a murder house is horrible, but as one who can hardly sit thru a 9 minute video, having the drive to do all this is admirable.
This was Sherlock's brother, he took a different path
You mean mycroft?
You should do the case of Joshua Maddux, it’s so strange but still has next to no publicity :(
I would really love this channel do Albert Fish
I miss shane and ryan :((
They left buzzfeed.
Wtf you lying
I don't
That format was goofy
Me: yay! Finally I get to see Ryan and Shane! ^-^
Also me after watching 20 seconds of the video: -End my life-
KAWAIII CHANN! :3 they left buzzfeed and started their own channel called the watcher
maab zafar BUZZFEED naked em be corny
Buzzfeed should do one of these over the Carr brothers from Kansas. I just heard about it and it’s intense.
Oh, Jesus, that's the Wichita Massacre, isn't it? The home invasion with the rapes and the murders?
I've read *a lot" of True Crime cases, that one really haunts me.
I would support raising awareness of the case with a well made documentary. I'm not sure if it would be something for Shane and Ryan to cover, only due to the considerable amount of sexual assault that took place, which doesn't leave too many options for...jokes.
But I agree, it's something Buzzfeed should consider covering. People should know what happened.
You actually missed a child of the Pitezel family. There were four pictures but you said five children. The children were Dessa, Alice, Nellie, Howard and Horton. Their child that died was named Neville.
Truly an inspiration to millions of sims players around the world
lmao
This is my favorite criminal! Excellent job
“Goddamn Pinkertons”
That last line was weirdly phrased
i had to rewatch this three times because every time i watch it i fall asleep??
I just watched a Supernatural episode on this lmao
That pronunciation of Toronto... Sounded mighty Canadian 👏🏻
i did a project on him junior year in my history class!
There is a famous quote that is thought to have been said (I'm not sure of its validity) by HH Holmes.
"I was born with the devil in me.
I could not help the fact that I was a murderer, no more than a poet can help the inspiration to sing."
I like that they conveniently left out the fact that Holmes actually had a son and wife at one point.
It's terrifying how easy it once was for murderers and con artists to just disappear and create a new identity and start all over.
By the way, I don't recommend reading too much detail about Holmes' crimes. He was so disgusting.
Uhhh do another buzzfeed unsolved pls cause I’m home alone and need something to watch until I brush my teeth and edit
U should do one on Albert fish
This became buzzfeed solved
Fun fact: the appearance of Tom Hardy's character in gruesome series Taboo was partly based on HH Holmes.
Devil in a white city was a great book about H.H. Holmes
Thankful there's not more rich serial killers... you really don't want to give a murderer a home makeover budget.
WHERE ARE RYAN AND SHAAANEEEEE?
New channel called “The Watcher”
They opened their own company, their channel is called “The Watcher” and I think they start posting videos on january
@@bia3924 Just found it. There's no "The" tho..only "Watcher"
they left buzzfeed and have their own channel now, it will be interesting to see BUN flops since they left.
@@andreen4536 They said they will do more episodes of Buzzfeed Unsolved: True Crime and Supernatural in 2020, but didn't saw when or how many or if that will be the last season (that I saw).
I imagine around the same episode count as 2019 or possibly even less, but that's a guess.
Wow, they made the Pinkerton Detective Agency from RDR2 into a real thing! Sooo cool
No one:
Not a single soul:
Kids at 1:11 : 👁👄👁
Lol this is perfect because I’m doing a report on him right now !😃
If anyone else is interested in this, I'd recommend the book The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson. I've been reading it in my English class, and it's really interesting.
One POV is of Daniel Burnham, an architect who worked on the World's Columbian Exposition in 1983. His part goes through his struggles building the fair, and his life, etc. I'll admit, some of his parts are kind of boring but if you read past those, it's kinda cool.
But the other POV (the more interesting one IMO) is of H.H Holmes. It goes into more detail about how he constructed his "castle" and his killings.
The thing I liked best was it was written like fiction but it's 100% true.
gimme the DiCaprio-Scorsese movie already, please!!
