The warmest table on the Kansas frontier was bait. This is the true story of the killers the prairie swallowed whole.
The Bloody Benders ran a small inn and general store on the lonely Osage Trail in 1870s Labette County, Kansas, and for two years, travelers who stopped there for a hot meal were never seen alive again. Behind a hanging canvas curtain, a family of self proclaimed Spiritualists turned frontier hospitality into a killing floor, and buried at least eleven people in the orchard behind their one room cabin.
By the time Kansas came to dig, the Benders were already gone. A nationwide manhunt, a governor's reward, and a hundred and fifty years of searching have never closed the case. They were never caught. They were never tried. And they were never even really named Bender.
