Ed Gein: America’s Real-Life Psycho | #417
18 September 2025 - 1 hour 19 mins explicitWe’re finally diving into the case of infamous bodysnatcher, human-skin-furniture-maker, and OG mummy’s boy...Ed Gein.
A shy bachelor who terrorised a tiny Wisconsin town with his nightmarish farmhouse of horrors in the 1950s, Ed Gein inspired some of the creepiest characters in scary-movie history: from Psycho’s Norman Bates to Buffalo Bill from The Silence of the Lambs.
And with the third season of Ryan Murphy’s Monsters turning the Netflix spotlight on Gein, what better time for us to explore the twisted true story behind it all? Here’s everything you need to know about the terrifying ‘Butcher of Plainfield’.
