True Crime Tuesdays on the Fearsome Fiction Podcast: Belle Gunness, The Black Widow of La Porte
It’s another True Crime Tuesdays on Fearsome Fiction. This episode heads back to the turn of the last century, to a farmhouse at the end of a quiet road in La Porte, Indiana — where a Norwegian immigrant named Belle Gunness placed lonely-hearts ads in the newspaper, invited her suitors to bring their savings and “come prepared to stay forever,” and made sure they never left. This is the story of the Black Widow of La Porte.
