Episode Details

In June 1948, the grand estate on Cemetery Road just outside Bowling Green, Kentucky, became the site of a brutal Southern Gothic tragedy when eighty-year-old Dr. Charles B. Martin and his wife Martha were gunned down and bludgeoned in their bedroom while their newlywed son was away on his honeymoon. The killer was Harry Edward Kilgore—a brilliant, heartbroken college student driven to savage violence after the eighteen-year-old woman he expected to marry wed into the wealthy Martin family instead. His swift confession soon unraveled into a nationwide media sensation when Kilgore claimed a prominent music professor masterminded the plot, sparking a landmark legal battle over accomplice testimony. In this episode of Southern Ghost Stories, Allen Sircy steps inside Warren County’s infamous "Murder Mansion" to examine the bloodstained crime scene, the ghost stories that still cling to its white columns, and the bizarre twist of fate that awaited the killer years after his release.
