Summary

This week we pull one from the Patreon Vault to explore Clarendon Court in Newport RI, the home and its colorful history with so many spiderwebs. From its construction to its century of legendary owners, there is much more to this home than the location of two attempted murders. Clarendon Court also served as the location for the last of Grace Kelly’s films. Grace was a friend of Dominick Dunne’s who took him to his very first movie premiere. So many spiderwebs in this bonus episode!  Continue your investigation with ad-free and bonus episodes on Patreon!
