The Spooky Darlings tell of the life of the legendary Frank Lloyd Wright—a visionary who transformed American architecture. From his early days in Wisconsin to his groundbreaking innovations, Wright reimagined how people lived in their homes.

But behind the genius was a life marked by scandal, ambition, and unthinkable tragedy. In 1914, Wright’s beloved Taliesin estate became the site of a brutal and shocking massacre—one he rarely spoke about.

Over a century later, his influence still shapes the world around us… but so does the mystery and horror tied to his name.


Join the sisters as they unpack the brilliance, controversy, and chaos of Frank Lloyd Wright.
