The Fall River home where Andrew and Abby Borden were murdered on 4 August 1892, in a case that has fascinated America for more than a century. Their daughter, Lizzie Borden, was tried for the killings but acquitted in 1893, leaving the murders officially unsolved. Today, the house operates as both a museum and a bed and breakfast, allowing visitors to tour the rooms where the crimes took place or stay overnight. Its notorious history has made it one of the most frequently investigated allegedly haunted buildings in the United States.
