Gein escalated from grave-robbing to murder, driven by a delusional need to resurrect his dead mother and a grotesque desire to quite literally step into her skin.  Eventually, inside his farmhouse, investigators uncovered a nightmare stitched together from human remains: masks, corsets, lampshades, skulls, belts, and even a box containing the genitalia of nine different women. It was a discovery that redefined American horror. This episode unpacks the psychology behind Gein’s depravity, including his warped devotion to his domineering mother, his dissociation, and his fixation with anatomy. We also confront the question that still divides experts today: was Ed Gein criminally insane?  Because the truth isn’t that Ed Gein was born evil.  It’s that he was built by the only woman he ever loved...
