“Lizzie Borden took an axe and gave her mother forty whacks. When she saw what she had done, she gave her father forty-one.”

This nursery rhyme is familiar to anyone who grew up in Massachusetts. The story of the gruesome Borden murders and the young suspect Lizzie Borden is one of the most infamous tales to come out of the Bay State, and now you can actually book a night at the former crime scene.

The Lizzie Borden Bed and Breakfast is located in Fall River and still looks exactly as it did more than 100 years ago.
