I feel like the tour guide went out of her way to discredit many of the positions Eric Larsen took in his book. You’re selling a haunted tour lean into some of the stories. No one knows so talk about the murder house, allegations suggest secret hallways cremation ovens in the basement. The book was popular because of the horrors committed by Holmes. I have read everything written by Larsen and he goes to great lengths to research the subject matter in his books. The reason we went on the tour was because of his book not to speculate on the Holmes crimes
