Summary, etc. note: From the moment his unspeakable crimes were discovered in November 1957, the story of the Wisconsin ghoul Ed Gein gripped the world’s imagination with mythic power. Immortalized in the forms of Psycho’s Norman Bates, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre’s Leatherface and The Silence of the Lambs’ Buffalo Bill, the mild-mannered, Seemingly harmless farmer from the tiny town of Plainfield was more monstrously deranged than any of his make-believe avatars. Painstakingly researched and illustrated, Harold Schechter and Eric Powell’s true-crime graphic novel vividly captures the various worlds Gein inhabited: the grim, Gothic home that proved a breeding ground for madness; the heartland village whose inhabitants couldn’t have imagined the monster in their midst; and, most shocking of all, the grotesque inner realm of Gein’s psychotic fantasy life-an unholy brew of human sacrafice, sexual obsession and bizarre mother worship that drove him to commit some of the most appalling acts in the annals of American crime.
