Founding Footsteps is now offering a trolley-driven experience that will bring Philadelphians all around the city to discover the darker side of its history with it’s Bad Things Happen in Philadelphia – The Philly True Crime Tour. Topics being covered include the nation’s first serial killer, H.H. Holmes (who spent some time unfortunately, in Philly), plus some local stories including Gary Heidnik, a certified genius with a penchant for locking his victims in a pit he dug in his basement—which would later become a partial inspiration for Buffalo Bill from ‘Silence of the Lambs.’
There will also be some lighter topics covered on the tour spanning jewel heists, how corrupt politicians manipulated the court system and more tales all told through storytelling, live music and video presentations. As a release states, the tour runs Thursdays through Saturdays throughout October. Tickets are $48 and include one cocktail from PJ Clarke’s (6th And Walnut inside the Curtis Building), which is where the tour starts and ends.
