About this listen

He is called "The Butcher of Plainfield" "Grandfather of Gore "The Ghoul of Plainfield" and has been a source of inspiration of countless movies that take a small truth about the life of Ed Gein and spin an entire book or movie series designed to scare those who dare read or watch. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack go behind the stories and tell the true story of a man who admitted to killing two women in the 50s but is suspected of so much more.
