Synopsis

 

Andrew Borden was a wealthy businessman living in Fall River, Massachusetts with his two daughters and his second wife. His first wife, Sarah Morse, mother of Emma and Lizzie, died when Lizzie was 2. Andrew remarried Abbey 2 years later. By all accounts, Emma raised Lizzie, as Emma was 10 years older. Andrew was very frugal.

Despite being worth about $15 million in today’s dollars, the family didn’t have indoor plumbing and lived in a modest house that Andrew had converted from a tenement building. Andrew worked hard to make his money, starting as a carpenter making caskets, and investing in businesses along the way. At the time of his death, he owned a bank, factories and had a building under construction. That building, called the AJ Borden Building, still stands.

Lizzie and her sister wished to live in better circumstances and pushed their father to improve their living conditions, dresses and social circles. They didn’t befriend their maid, calling her “Maggie,” the previous maid’s name, instead of her actual name, Bridget. They also referred to their stepmother as “Mrs. Borden.” In the days leading up to the murders, Emma had been away visiting friends. She only returned after the murders had been discovered.

Also in the days leading up to the murders, all the residents of the house had fallen ill with stomach symptoms. This has led to speculation that they had been poisoned.

The night before the murders, Tuesday night, Lizzie and Emma’s uncle John Morse came to stay with the family. He was there to discuss a business matter with Andrew.

Abbey Borden was killed Wednesday morning between 9:30 and 10:15am. She was tidying the guest room of the house. She was struck from the front initially and then fell to the floor. The remaining blows were to the back of her head. Andrew Borden was killed between 10:45-11:10am Wednesday morning, in the parlor of the house. He was struck from the front and brutally battered. It is unusual for a murderer – with the kind of frenzy required for these types of murders – to wait so long in between.

Ever since 1892, when Andrew and Abbey Borden were murdered, people have been fascinated with the case. Did Lizzie Borden kill her father and stepmother? Help solve the mystery of who killed the couple with this adventure. You’ll visit the crime scene and interrogate the witnesses and suspects. Are you smart enough to track down the murderer
