So this is the coming Scorsese movie starring DiCaprio about the 1893 Chicago World's Fair and H.H. Holmes.

For those who don't know who him he was the guy who invented concealing your victim's bloodied murdered husk under the cloak of your mustache.

I'm excited for this movie because finally white Chicago criminals can get some notoriety again.

Oh, wow! Now I have something to live for! The Devil in the White City was excellent - can't wait to see it on screen. Of course, since the book also included a lot about the World's Fair, it won't be as good as if they adapted Depraved - it's a biography of Holmes by Harold Schechter, who also wrote my favorite biography of Albert Fish.
