Trunk Murders - The Cases

With the advent of passenger rail travel in the 1800s, people started taking trains to destinations all over the United States and beyond. At the time, it was common for travelers to pack their belongings in large trunks, making it easy for them to transport enough clothing to last them several weeks. However, these trunks were soon used by cunning criminals for a decidedly sinister purpose: concealing and transporting dead bodies. In fact, these containers were used so often by killers to hide and move their victims that the crimes were referred to as "trunk murders."
