Background History
The Lizzie Borden House located in Fall River, Massachuetts was the scene of the greatest, unsolved murder cases in American
history.   On the morning of August 4th, 1892 Andrew Borden and his wife Abby were brutally murdered with an axe in their
Fall River home.   Suspicion immediately focused on their 32 year old daughter Lizzie who was eventually charged with the
murders.   She would spend ten months in jail awaiting trial before she was acquitted of all charges.   Despite some
circumstantial evidence that pointed towards Lizzie, the jury took less than an hour to deliberate and reach their
verdict.   There are many theories as to who may have murdered Andrew and Abby and why.   Did Lizzie murder
her father and step mother and if so, why?   Or was it someone else who had an issue to settle with Mr. Borden?

Investigation Data and Experiences
Although there were several guests the night we stayed at the inn, we were given access to many areas to investigate.   We had access to a few unoccupied attic rooms and the basement area as well which is noted as highly active.   In addition, the
Morse Room where Abby was murdered, we had complete access.
Audio Results:
Marty/Lisa- (Minutes used on cassette recorder--60 mins. – Loud bang noise heard within the Morse Room, class C evp
recorded in the Morse Room), (Minutes used on Digital Audio Recorder--20 mins, no results)
Audio recordings were done using a Panasonic RR-QR240 Digital Audio Recorder as well as a RadioShack CTR-122 Cassette
Recorder.   Ten minutes of a question and answer format using the digital audio recorder in the basement yielded no results.
Ten minutes of a question and answer format using the digital audio recorder in the Morse Room yielded no results as well.
One hour of recording time using the cassette recorder in the Morse Room did produce mixed results.   A loud bang noise was
recorded within the room, unexplained as to what it could have been.   We also picked up what seemed to be a faint female
voice, as displayed below.
