So glad to have found this forum. Looks like a fun place. I've been intrigued by this case for 20 or so yrs and but have only read 2 books about it. One written in the 60's and the Arnold Brown one. I very much want to pay a visit to the Bed and Breakfast one day. For those who've been there, are the 2nd St. House, Maplecroft house and the cemetery where the Bordens are buried relatively close to one another? I'd like to see everything if I go.
Anyway, guilty or not (I go back and forth on that). I can't help but empathize with this lady. Had to have been pretty rough living in that disfunctional household under primative conditions, having little privacy and really no life of her own. It's no wonder she had all these issues....

I hope to go one day. Not sure I'd want to spend the night there but it would be fun to tour the house.

Welcome Kristin! I look forward to your posts about your ideas on the case. Staying at the B&B gives you the perspective you need on the facts of the case. I really enjoyed both of my stays there.

Welcome to the forum, Kristin! There's lots of information among the primary source material, an excellent resource. Gaining expertise with the facts of the case may well give the books a whole new perspective!
