One wouldn't think that a house where a grizzly set of murders took place would be a desirable place to stay.  The Victorian house in Fall River has lived on in infamy since the double homicide of Andrew and Abby Borden with a hatchet on August 4, 1892. Although Lizzie Borden had been accused of and put on trial for murdering her father and stepmother, she was later acquitted by a jury. With such a storied history, the house is among the most famous in Massachusetts and offers tours and a lovely bed and breakfast to spend the night.

The Historic Lizzie Borden House is a place we've all heard of. With its gory past, it's been a popular place to visit for historians, ghost hunters, and those who are just fascinated with the story of the mysterious double homicide that happened here on August 4, 1892. Today, you can spend the night in one of the suites or rooms, including two basement rooms.

One of the two suites, the Lizzie & Emma Suite, has two rooms and is located on the second floor. Able to accommodate up to five guests, these were once the bedrooms of Lizzie and her sister Emma.

The Andrew & Abby Suite is another two-room suite that accommodates up to five guests. This was the couple's bedroom and Abby's sewing room which is now a bedroom. There is a private bathroom in this suite.

The John V. Morse Suite is located on the second floor. It's the room where Abby Borden was found slain. Abby had been making up the bedroom after Lizzie and Emma's uncle, John Morse, had left after spending the night. This room shares a bathroom with the Lizzie and Emma Suite.

Three additional rooms can be found on the third floor and all share a bathroom. These rooms are the Bridget Sullivan Room which had belonged to the Borden family's maid, the Andrew Jennings room which was named after Lizzie's defense attorney, and the Hosea Knowlton Room named after the D.A. of Southern Massachusetts who was involved in the trial.

Two additional rooms lie in the basement and are decorated in a "steampunk dungeon" theme unlike the Victorian-styled rooms on the second and third floors. The basement rooms, called Under the Hatchet and The Washroom are not luxurious and are certainly not for those who are easily scared.

The Washroom is actually considered one of the most haunted spots in the house and it is believed that Lizzie had come down here to wash the blood off her hands after murdering her parents (if she did, in fact, murder them of course).

If you'd like breakfast with your stay, it costs an additional $20 and includes many of the food items the Bordens ate on the morning of the gruesome murders.

The main level of the house is a museum of sorts with many artifacts from the murder case on display along with photos of the Bordens. If you don't wish to spend the night, the Lizzie Borden House also offers House Tours daily and Ghost Tours and a Ghost Hunts nightly.

With such a fascinating and macabre past, a visit to the Lizzie Borden House is one you won't soon forget.
