New Old Lizzie report from TV on Youtube

Almost 8 minutes long, this is an investigation into the case by Entertainment reporter Tim Estiloz for CN8. He gets some facts incorrect, but it is GREAT to see the case explored in more than a 30 second sound bite.

What is extra great is that the report is from 1996 when the house was first opened as a B&B. You get to meet Martha McGinn, George Quigley, Ron Evans, and others. Vintage stuff and pretty nifty too!

Entertainment reporter Tim Estiloz takes you on an informative tour of the Lizzie Borden home where the infamous axe murders took place in the late 1800’s. This unsolved double murder continues to mystify and fascinate to this very day. This story also tells how this infamous home has been transformed into a uniquely popular “Bed and Breakfast” in Fall River, Massachusetts. A noteworthy aspect of this video is a fact based re-creation of the crime in the actual Borden home by the B&B’s former staff, vintage photographs, and a historical re-telling of the murders’ details – full of creepy, spine chilling inside facts. Estiloz balances the true story’s details… with a fun, humorous take on the horrific home’s past being transformed into a popular “Bed and Breakfast”. This video was written and produced by Tim Estiloz – who is currently a reporter for CN8 The Comcast Network

Mondo Lizzie Borden, Episode 7: NOT Lizzie Borden

Being a collector of the weird and fabulous as it relates to the Borden case, I have files of these images saved during the past twenty years. And I would like to share them with you now. Laugh, gasp, chuckle, or rage, these photos were all on eBay. For a price. I used to write the sellers and let them know they didn’t have a Lizzie, but soon gave up on that practice. They didn’t care. Even though they were committing fraud by the sale of the image as a true Lizzie Borden. Oh well.

Here we go. Enjoy.
