Ep 32. Philadelphia's House of Horrors: The Secrets of Chew Avenue

A missing woman’s name on someone else’s identification. A house filled with disturbing recordings. Families who have spent years searching for answers. This week on Crime Snob, we investigate the Philadelphia “House of Horrors” and the missing women linked to 417 West Chew Avenue. We trace Raymond “R.C.” Horsch’s unsettling past, the arrest of his son Eugene that brought investigators to the property, and the photographs, writings, and recordings that raised terrifying questions. At the center are the women whose families are still waiting to learn what happened and an investigation complicated by the challenge of separating staged violence from evidence of real crimes.
