October 23, 2026 | 7:00 to 9:00 PM | $30 per ticket
Includes a complimentary beer or wine at Bar 1888

Step beyond the myths and into one of history’s most chilling true crime stories. While millions flocked to the dazzling 1893 Chicago World’s Fair, a seemingly charming doctor was welcoming guests into a hotel that would become the center of one of America’s most infamous legends. For more than a century, the story of H.H. Holmes and his so-called “Murder Castle” has captivated, horrified, and mystified audiences around the world.

But how much of what you’ve heard is actually true? Join acclaimed storyteller and researcher Sarah Cailean for an unforgettable evening at Southern Market as she separates fact from fiction, uncovering the real story behind the headlines.

Your ticket includes entry to this one-of-a-kind event plus a complimentary beer or wine from Bar 1888.
