Psycho/Bates Motel Texas Chainsaw Massacre Silence of the Lambs All three franchises were inspired by this guy and makes the characters from the films even more terrifying

She talks about how fascination with cases like this is "wound culture" which is that we are drawn to the suffering of other people. I could not disagree more. The suffering of other people is what I don't like about serial killer documentaries. I am interested because I am fascinated by the killers themselves. Not in a positive way, but out of wanting to understand how someone could be able to do such things. And I don't think I am alone with that kind of thought process.

My grandfather lived next door to him at one point and remembers his mother never letting him play and always yelling at him. Very strange when u know this was that close to your life. That one of my family members actually knew him.

From the countless times I've heard defenses for insanity, this is the first time I really believe it. His mind was his real sentence.
@JKaiserable
Every single psycho video: “things like this just never happen in small towns.”
@rennfan-grace
It’s interesting how much an influence a persons childhood has on ones future. Sometimes they can change people for the better and others for the worse ......

I lived in Wisconsin for two years. One of my older co-workers told me that when she was school age, her older brother would drive her back and forth to school. They would always pass a large building with a fenced in yard. There was often a nice old man in the yard who was walking or raking leaves. He would smile and wave to them as they passed by. When she grew up, she came across news articles with pictures and realized that nice old man had been Ed Gein and the building was his mental hospital.

Forensic Psychologist Helen Morrison when she said that he (Ed) was born pure evil just tells me she's in the wrong field of work.
@JohAndRe-n7z
Ed Gein was surely the most disturbed, creepy and bizarre serial killer there’s ever been. Can you just imagine being inside that dark and isolated house of horrors, the worst nightmare a person could ever experience!
@macygander7848
Ok yeah he killed a bunch of people and used them as decorations... but who the heck puts cheese on a piece of apple pie.... completely psycho
@SpicyBeautifulDisaster
My 90 year old grandma likes to think horrible murders didn’t start happening until recently, but this story proves that wrong. We just hear about more crime now because of the internet/tv.
@johndoe-uz2kc
Just imagine the absolute horror of walking by a farmhouse at night and seeing the owner walking around dressed in human skin😱,i would probably piss myself.
@God.sDaughter
I noticed something too. His eyes. They look very cold and at the same time pleading for some affection. I think he grew cold and colder after seeing people die all around him that he associated death with love. Since those who were close to him all left him via death.
@e.paradigm7415
I've always felt sorry for Ed Gein. His mother was a straight up, manipulative, controlling narcissist. She implanted the idea that women were dirty so that he could stay with her forever, she sabotaged him. He couldn't develop healthy relationships because she warped his perception of people and he listened to his mother because he loved her even though she was the cause of his misery. I wouldn't be suprised if the mother did have something to do with her son Henry's death.
@amyrat151
"We used to see Ed occasionally. I'd see him around town and then he was always a friendly person, quiet, friendly, usually had a joke to tell. He always had time to say hello and ask after how you were." That sounds like regular Wisconsin small talk to me. I think Ed was socially savvy enough to play the part of a regular Plainsfield town person.
@ryanhodges7101
Let this be a lesson to everyone watching. Mother doesn’t always know best. Children need love. They don’t need complete domination, never ending discipline, and coldness.
@jaghatai_bulut
I feel terrible for the sheriff who arrested him. I mean can you imagine one day, you are doing your job like any day, you enter a house and you are traumatised forever. Your heart cant take it after a few years and you die. Like, there is no warning, no nothing.. just boom, heart failure causing trauma.
@johnfairweather9188
Ed had two things in common with many psycho killers: an absent father and a controlling mother.
@farflightless
My grandfather used to work at a guard at the place Gein was at and helped transfer him. He didn't talk about it much but said that Gein was a nice man.
