“Lizzie Borden took an axe and gave her mother forty whacks. When she saw what she had done She gave her father forty-one…”
Lizzie Borden was born on July 19th,1860 in Fall River, Massachusetts. She, along with her sister Emma lived with their father and step-mother in a two story, dark green, Victorian-style home. Life was not happy at the Borden home. Mr. Borden ruled his household with an iron-fist and had absolute control over everyone that resided there.
On the morning of August, the 4th , 1892 Abby Borden was the first to be murdered. She was in the guest bedroom when her killer struck her with the axe and landed the first blow into her forehead. She collapsed to the floor, dead. But that wasn’t enough, the killer then decided to drive their axe into her 19 more times.
At lunchtime Mr. Borden came home early and decided to take a nap on the couch. It was then, the killer slipped in through the window and attacked him from behind, then hit him 11 more times before the axe finally broke leaving the blade wedged into Mr. Borden’s skull. The handle was later found in the basement by investigators.
It was determined that this wasn’t a break in, but an act of hate and revenge. When authorities arrived and proceeded to question Lizzie, she acted in a cool, calm, demeanor despite finding her father and step-mother dead. She was arrested days later when her story kept changing. She was charged the 3 accounts of first-degree murder for her father, step-mother, and for killing them both. After 10 days it was determined that she was not guilty due to a lack of evidence against her and no witness to link her to the crimes. After spending 10 months in jail, she was released. However, the people of Fall River believed she committed the murders and shunned her from society. She and Emma received the full inheritance and moved to a classier neighborhood, buying a mansion that they called Maplecroft.
In 1918, the Borden home was sold to a private family who had problems with people who were curious and wanted to get a better look at the notorious home. It wasn’t until 1948 when the house was sold to the McGinns who restored the mansion and opened it up to the public.
The Borden house has a long line of paranormal activity tied to it. In the guest bedroom people claim to have seen an indentation in the bed as though someone was lying there, and they hear cries as well. Mr. Borden however continues about his business and has even answered a few EVPs from time to time. In the maid’s room people have reported cold spots and have seen an apparition in maid’s clothes doing chores around the house. An apparition of Lizzie herself has also been seen. She appears in the basement looking around, perhaps making sure that she has hidden all the evidence? The lights also appear to have minds of their own, turning on and off. Upstairs staff would hear doors open and shut, followed by disembodied footsteps. Shadow people have also been seen wandering around the house, particularly in the main hallway. Photos of misty forms have appeared in photographs taken in the living room where Mr. Borden was hacked to death. This place is so haunted that several paranormal shows have investigated here such as Ghost Hunters and Ghost Adventures.
Do you think Lizzie Borden committed those murders and do you think the house is haunted?
The picture above is Mr. Borden’s skull. Yikes!
The unnerving sight of an approaching car in the dark: photos by Henri Prestes.
A recently widowed man took this photograph of his daughter playing with her new Christmas presents only to discover that the developed picture clearly shows a spectral figure crawling across the floor. His daughter seems to have noticed the ghost, as she is looking towards it, smiling. He firmly believes that this is the ghost of his dead wife trying to play with their daughter on her first Christmas without her mother.

In 2014, Kenny Veach went missing in the Mojave Desert looking for an odd cave in the area. Veach went out on hiking trips frequently and would sometimes leave for days camping and hiking. On November 10th 2014 Veach told his girlfriend that he was going to go exploring and left. For months before he disappeared he had mentioned a cave that was shaped like an M in the desert and supposedly the cave emits odd frequencies and caused the visitors to vibrate and feel fear. Veach had mentioned the cave when he commented on another hikers YouTube vlog. He commented on the video that he would take a video camera and look inside the odd cave after other hikers asked for proof. Although he was encouraged by other YouTubers, some discouraged him from trying to find the cave. Veach left early in the morning and intended to stay overnight. Unfortunately Veach never returned home while looking for the cave. His girlfriend filed a missing persons report when he didn’t return home, his phone was found abandoned in the desert near an old mine. When cameras were lowered into the mine no body was found ruling out falling.Veach was notorious for avoiding the use of gps and maps, stating that amateurs used them. Many people in his community as well as other hikers on YouTube went and searched the desert. There have been theory’s such as being bitten by a snake, dehydration. However if that were the case his remains would have certainly been found in the vast area that was searched. Due to the nature of the M shaped cave, ufo abduction and being kidnapped by the government or a local gang have been thrown out as explanations. Some suggest that he had stumbled upon something that was not meant to be seen such as an experiment or killing of a rival gang member. Veach’s girlfriend believes that he died by suicide and went into the desert to do so. She mentioned on his YouTube channel that depression ran in his family and that he told her that he would rather die in the wilderness so that his loved ones would not find him, like he had found his own father in the past. Veach is presumed dead and his remains as well as the mysterious cave have never been found.
