A Murder at the Brown Palace Hotel - The Story of Isabel Springer

Isabel Springer's beauty certainly made her desirable to men in the early 20th century. Perhaps, a bit too desirable. In 1911, with 3 men apparently vying for her love, things quickly turned deadly.

I used to work at The Brown Palace in the 90s. They told us this story during orientation but you have a lot more detail than we got! Thank you, sir

"What a tangled web we weave..." Awesome story. Presented brilliantly.

I live in Colorado and was born in Denver. I've never heard this story. Thanks so much Paul for telling me some of my states history

I heard this story when I moved to Denver in 1982. The Brown Palace holds MANY secrets! Many of which are not heard about, due to the infamy of the Brown. How exciting to know that it has been told. Thank you, Paul.

It's always a pleasure to listen to your narration of any tale.

[GlacialErratic]

Another wonderful narration, you could read Green Eggs And Ham, and still capture my attention. Right then....

Hi Paul, Isobel was a real piece of work. I think she fully understood the consequences of asking Frank to retrieve her letters from Tony. She apparently liked having them fighting over her. John was played for a fool. She didn’t care about the fact that she was responsible for two deaths. John was right to divorce her. It’s a shame that he didn’t understand the depth of her duplicity. It’s John that has my sympathy, in the end she died in poverty and alone. Thank you my friend, I appreciate your hard work finding these stories to share. ❤Brenda

I was so involved in the narration, I didn't even hear psoriasis, just filled in cirrhosis myself. 😂

Love your style of narration. No need for images... I listen in bed with my eyes closed.

Well, I never thought that she would be so cruel as to ruin so many lives...

"Piffle" is my new word to learn for today! Thank you for your work.

Mr. Brodie, it’s always so good to hear a story from you. Thank you.

Lives lost, heart's broken, it really goes to show when you hear old folks talking about the moral people of the "good ole day's!" That people have always been the same. Paul thanks again for your research and as always your wonderful narration great stuff

Hi, Paul. I recently found your channel- just yesterday, actually- and as a college student of 20, your voice is wonderfully calming and clear. I always love hearing about the smaller stories in history, and your videos are helping to scratch that itch. Cheers from the U.S. East Coast!

I love these older true crime cases! Great video, my friend!

[megalopolis]

If there is one thing the older and modern elites teach us, it is that one can never stoop low enough to attain the high life. Thank you for this cautionary tale.

The 1800's was not a time of innocence. I know that from my family tree research. Nothing changes

Well, I never thought a WIN video would appear just in time for me to listen to at bedtime!
