Content creator Audrey Hollander has shared her disturbing experience working with Raymond “RC” Horsch, a pornographer whose Philadelphia home is under investigation in connection with at least seven missing women. Horsch died last year at age 83.
Authorities discovered over a million pieces of digital evidence, chemical equipment, and weapons in the Olney neighborhood home, which is now the center of a federal and local probe. Uncovered recordings allegedly document the abuse, asphyxiation, and strangulation of women at the residence, along with urns containing ashes and containers of an unknown oily substance.
Hollander, who worked with Horsch in the early 2000s, described her 2004 visit to his home. She recalled an overwhelming, rotten odor and a cluttered environment that immediately made her uneasy.
"It was like a hoarder’s nest — junk piled everywhere. But mostly it was the odor, which still haunts me more than 20 years later — a funky smell, rotten, like something spoiled," Hollander told The Post. "I had a bad feeling. I wanted to run out of the door and never look back."
While using the bathroom, Hollander discovered a bag of heroin hidden within a porn industry magazine. She believes Horsch intentionally placed it there, hoping she would use the drugs. She recounted feeling he was assessing her, considering her for a "snuff film."
Despite her apprehension, Hollander proceeded with filming a music video titled "Bad, Bad Boy" for two days. She described the experience as violent, resulting in bruises and bleeding fingers from being forced to scratch deeply into a wooden desk. She felt the demands were extreme and not merely simulated.
"We usually sell fantasy in this industry but it became clear that wasn’t what Horsch was going for: he wanted me to be clownish and degraded," Hollander stated.
After the filming, Horsch reportedly continued to contact Hollander, seeking to have her return to Philadelphia. She has since had a successful career in the adult industry and is now undergoing therapy to process the experience, expressing empathy for the missing women.
"I think about those poor missing women and how I could have been one of them," she said. "I’m so thankful I never went back to that creepy house on Chew Avenue."
