The Suburban Poisoner Who Wiped Out an Entire Family

Between 1928 and 1929, three members of a wealthy upper-middle-class family in a quiet London suburb passed away under highly unusual circumstances. While local doctors initially blamed natural causes, a shocking forensic exhumation revealed a chilling reality: a calculation of arsenic hidden inside ordinary household items. Despite an intense investigation by Scotland Yard, a wave of anonymous threatening letters, and an abundance of financial motives among the key suspects, no one was ever convicted. The family simply kept living behind the exact same doors for years afterward. In this historical dark history documentary, we analyze the official inquest timelines, the suspicious behavior of the family suspects, and a chilling, long-forgotten piece of family history stretching back a whole decade.
