One Of The World’s Most Haunted Inns Can Be Found Right Here In Massachusetts

“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.

In 1892, someone entered the Borden home and slaughtered Abby and Andrew Borden, Lizzie's parents, with a household hatchet.

Lizzie Borden was suspected but ultimately acquitted of the crime. Still, many suspect that the ghosts of her murdered family still haunt this building.

The bed and breakfast has been almost perfectly preserved. As you can see from the pictures above and below, the decor is chillingly intact.

The ghosts of Abby and Andrew Borden have been spotted everywhere from the bedrooms to the parlor. Guests have heard screams and felt ghostly touches.

There have even been reports of ghostly screams and the sound of loud thumps echoing through the halls.

For the curious, there's plenty of Borden memorabilia around, including artwork and personal items that once belonged to Lizzie herself.

You can even recreate the famous crime scene photo featuring Andrew Borden slumped over on the sofa.

A night at the Lizzie Borden Bed and Breakfast will run you between $200 and $270.

"Fans" of the Borden murder mystery should definitely not miss this creepy inn.
