EP 65 "So He Decked the Halls....with ACTUAL Human Face-Masks": The Terrible True Story of Ed Gein.

CONSIDER THIS YOUR NO-EATING WARNINGIt's as American as apple pie for every small town to have a house that local children whisper is haunted and full of unspeakable horrors–a house that they dare each other to run up and touch without getting snatched and boiled in a cauldron. But everyone knows these houses aren’t really real…..they’re just stories that kids tell to spook each other and adults might chuckle over. But when it comes to the house we have to tell you about today— the one in Plainfield Wisconsin that slowly sunk into a state of disrepair after all but one of its family members had died—and the person who lived there: odd but friendly bachelor Eddie Gein—the truth about the horrors behind its walls turned out to be far more terrifying than any ghost story ever whispered about it. This is the true account of the man, the dark myth, the madman legend, who walked alone through the halls of his mother’s beloved home so that the likes of horror film icons Norman Bates and Leatherface could run. This is the story of Ed Gein: the Butcher of Plainfield.
