Summary

Discover the dark origins of Ed Gein in this chilling exploration of how America's most infamous killer was made, not born. Veteran journalist Alexandra Reeves examines the suffocating religious fanaticism and psychological abuse inflicted by Augusta Gein, whose domineering control over her son created the foundation for unimaginable horror in rural Wisconsin. This gripping first chapter reveals how isolation, twisted devotion, and undiagnosed mental illness transformed a shy farm boy into the real-life inspiration for Psycho and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.
