About this listen

This week we are talking about Ed Gein, otherwise known as the Butcher of Plainfield. Geins crimes gathered widespread notoriety in 1957 and his story has had a lasting effect on American popular culture.


His tale has been fictionalised in works such as Psycho, Deranged, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Silence of the Lambs and our favourite, American Horror Story.


So let's get into the case of Ed Gein and his crimes.
