See this content in the original post

Welcome to The Oddity Shop, Where the Bizarre is Always on Sale!  This week in the Shop, Kara tells us the horrifying story of the Bloody Benders and their Killer Inn.

 Today, we dive into the chilling story of the Bloody Benders, one of the most notorious and enigmatic families in American history. Join us as we uncover the dark secrets behind their gruesome crimes and explore the mysteries that still linger to this day.  In the late 1800s, a family of four known as the Bloody Benders settled in Labette County, Kansas, running a small inn along the Osage Trail. Seemingly ordinary on the surface, the Benders—John, his wife Kate, son John Jr., and daughter Kate—soon revealed their true, sinister nature. With the inn strategically positioned to accommodate weary travelers, their home became a house of horrors for unsuspecting victims.
