I listened to your presentation during my breaks at work. I have toured the home many times and get more out of it each visit. The grandeur of Glensheen along with the connection to the history and iron mining in Northeast Minnesota. You obviously put a lot of time and effort in your research and I commend you. Look forward to seeing your other videos
The university doesn't mention it, because they don't want to freak people out, they also don't want that to be the main topic, as Chester and Clara's story is romantic.
I’ve been there a few times. It really depends on the tour you take or the particular guide you have. They don’t ignore it but they also don’t use it as a focal point. They usually tell the guides to shy away if they’re not comfortable with it. I’ve taken a few different tours and there was one particular one that talked about the murders for about 15-20 mins
I was a paper boy at the time duluth had a morning paper and afternoon paper my route was afternoon paper , When news hit, it was front page news. I was about 12 or 13 at the , the news was insane for the time. And of course tons of Theories about the murders exciting times very much appreciate what you're doing. My children are now old enough to visit. The Mansion and follow this story, marvelous work greatly. Appreciate what you do, thank you. All the best year channel.
Local Duluth born and raised, yes! This was such a crazy case and it's forever embedded in local history. For those not from our area, the mansion is now owned by UMD and offers tours. It is an incredible home with a fascinating history.
The mall you were referring to must have been the old Glass Block Department Store at 128 East Superior Street in downtown Duluth. A famous store for many years
The breakfast room, the Green room is my absolute favorite, although it was much prettier with the original ferns all over, but I understand they were causing issues. Boo
I have never heard any of this I live in northern MN and have toured Glensheen several times. This is an awesome tea sesh now im going to research more
My mom babysat at the mansion, i believe it was for Elizabeth's children as well as nieces and nephews over the holidays. I still have the letter from Elizabeth thanking her.
Marjorie Caldwell served two prison terms for arson, and she's been linked to several mysterious deaths. She was accused of murdering her third husband, although those charges were dropped. As of 2017 she was 84 and was still alive in Arizona.
I live in Minnesota I was neighbors with someone who would ride horses with Marjorie.She knew her well enough to know she was a arsonist and a murderer..She was able to lie her way out of accusations.
My husband and I were visiting Duluth, Minnesota and the Congdon mansion. We found this podcast on TH-cam and thought we’ll listen to the backstory when we were driving further north touring more of Minnesota. We were put off by the giggling and quite frankly the unnecessary profanity used in the podcast. If that shows our age and sensibilities, so be it. You asked what we thought and this is what we thought. We didn’t finish even the first part of the podcast because of it.
Y'ALL my face is never this smooth, I forgot to disable the soft effect on my camera and only realized when I was editing (: sorry if it looks weird!

@@russvoight1167 thank you so much! I would absolutely love to get a chance to tour the Mansion, it sounds magnificent
Just toured the Glensheen Mansion a few weeks ago. Interesting to hear the back story. The murder that took place there was never mentioned.
Same I toured a few months ago

I grew up in Duluth while all this was happening, but we sure didn't know everything that was going on! Thanks for your work!
As a native Minnesotan from near the north shore, it feels nice to have some coverage on this case.

Some? It’s been covered like a blanket now…

Great video! I though I heard and read everything about this family and the murder. Great research work Lindsey!
Iv toured this mansion 3 times in my life, it’s so worth it. Even without the murder history, the mansion and history itself is fascinating
The breakfast room, the Green room is my absolute favorite, although it was much prettier with the original ferns all over, but I understand they were causing issues. Boo
This video was awesome. We just toured the mansion last week! We listened to this two part series while we drove up the north shore to silver bay.
Thank you so much! Can’t wait to return to the States to stop by the mansion it sounds like such a beautiful place
That’s what I’m doing right now! I’m headed to silver bay and we just visited it!
Marjorie is a sociopath. The book "Will to Murder" is amazing. It's a must ready.
I have never heard any of this I live in northern MN and have toured Glensheen several times. This is an awesome tea sesh now im going to research more
I agree with Russ. There were no malls in Duluth or anywhere when Marjorie was a kid. It was surely an upscale department store in Duluth 😊
Goldfines department store, even had escalators 😁
Very well done! 👏
Just learned about this story from TikTok! Love your breakdown 😊

In every comment on your true crime videos I always say 'this is insane'. To spunk through all that money ... off to watch part 2 now
This is probably one of the most unbelievable stories I’ve ever covered for sure!
Been to the Glensheen Mansion a few times actually and never knew about the dark side since they don’t say much about it.
What was his connection to MN. If he grew up in NY.
Who was Julia?
Bamboozled is the word
That mansion looks like the Wayne mansion on the old Batman tv series
