Podcast Overview

This three-part true crime series examines Ed Gein, whose 1957 arrest in Plainfield, Wisconsin revealed unimaginable horrors. Investigators discovered a farmhouse filled with human remains fashioned into household objects: skulls as bowls, lampshades from skin, furniture upholstered with human tissue, and a "woman suit" Ed wore to transform himself into his deceased mother. Host Raven Thorne traces Ed's transformation from an abused child under his domineering mother Augusta's control, through decades of grave robbery and two admitted murders, to his trial and lifelong psychiatric confinement. The series explores how Ed Gein's crimes inspired Psycho, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and The Silence of the Lambs, forever changing American horror culture. https://amzn.to/42YoQGI This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI.

Episode three examines Ed Gein's trial, confinement, and cultural impact. In January 1958, psychiatrists diagnosed Ed with schizophrenia and declared him incompetent to stand trial. After ten years in Central State Hospital, Ed finally stood trial in 1968, where Judge Gollmar found him not guilty by reason of insanity. Ed spent his remaining years as a model patient in psychiatric institutions until his death from cancer in 1984. He was buried beside his mother Augusta in Plainfield Cemetery. The episode explores how Ed Gein's crimes inspired Psycho, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and The Silence of the Lambs, reshaping American horror while examining questions of mental illness, responsibility, and remembering his victims. https://amzn.to/42YoQGI This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI.

Episode two details Ed Gein's murders and the shocking discoveries at his farmhouse. On November 16, 1957, Ed shot hardware store owner Bernice Worden, his second victim after tavern keeper Mary Hogan in 1954. When deputies entered Ed's farmhouse that night, they found Bernice's gutted body hanging in the summer kitchen. Further search revealed a horrific inventory: skulls fashioned into bowls, lampshades made from human skin, furniture upholstered with human tissue, masks from preserved faces, and Ed's "woman suit." Ed confessed calmly to two murders and robbing approximately forty graves. The discoveries shocked Plainfield and the nation, transforming the quiet handyman into America's most disturbing criminal case. https://amzn.to/42YoQGI This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI.
