House of Chains: The Shocking True Story of Thirteen Siblings Held Captive by Their Own Parents


Overview

Thirteen siblings. One locked house. A secret that shocked the world. On January 14, 2018, a terrified seventeen-year-old girl climbed out of a window of her family's California home and dialed 911. What she revealed to police was almost impossible to believe: she and her twelve siblings ranging in age from toddlers to adults were imprisoned, starved, and chained by the very people meant to protect them. Behind closed doors, David and Louise Turpin had constructed a house of horrors. Outwardly, they appeared to be a devoted couple, parading their children in matching outfits at Disneyland and vow renewal ceremonies. But inside their suburban home, the children were denied food, education, medical care, and freedom itself. House of Chains is the devastating true crime account of the Turpin family case-the abuse that went unnoticed for decades, the desperate escape that saved thirteen lives, and the courtroom drama that brought their parents to justice. More than just a story of cruelty, it is also a story of resilience. The siblings, once voiceless, now symbolize the strength of survival and the power of hope. Inside you will discover: The shocking details of how the Turpins kept their children hidden in plain sight. The courageous 911 call that ended years of silence. Eyewitness accounts of the police rescue and emergency response. The legal battle that led to life sentences for David and Louise Turpin. The ongoing journey of the siblings as they reclaim their futures. Raw, haunting, and ultimately inspiring, House of Chains pulls back the curtain on one of the most disturbing child abuse cases in American history and the extraordinary courage it took to break free.
