Ep80 - Sulphuric: 4 - Archibald Henderson (Holland Park, London, W11)

This is Part Four of Six of Sulphuric: the true story of serial killer John George Haigh, the Acid Bath Murder.


On the morning of Thursday 12th February 1948, two years after the triple murder of the McSwan family, with John George Haigh having blossomed into a respected businessman with enough money to last a lifetime and had no plans to kill ever again, he lured his new pal - a wealthy man of dubious morals Archie Henderson - to his workshop at 2 Leopold Road, where he murdered him and dissolved his body in acid. But why did Johnny return to a life of crime?

  • Date: Thursday 12th February 1948
  • Location: 22 Ladbroke Square, Holland Park, London, W11 (the former home of the Henderson's where they first met John George Haigh)
  • Victims: 6 (although he would confess to nine)
  • Culprit: John George Haigh
