Our featured speaker is Jeff Mudgett, author of the book, Bloodstains. From his website:

“The shocking tale, based on a true story, of one man’s spiritual journey to find his roots, only to discover his direct origins are what nightmares are made of, and his family tree pure evil – Dr. H.H. Holmes, the monster and master of Chicago’s Murder Castle!Unable to accept this horrible secret, the author’s initial research turns from an eerie fascination into obsession and finally a struggle for his very survival as his inner demons are turned loose while he dances with the devil. Halfway through the book and right up to the terrifying conclusion you’ll find yourself asking what would you have done in his place on this unique and compelling voyage to the undiscovered.”
