Ed Gein
Edward Theodore Gein was born to Augusta Crafter (1878–1945) and George P. Gein (1873–1940) on August 27, 1906, in La Crosse, Wisconsin. His parents, both natives of Wisconsin, had married on July 7, 1900, and their marriage produced Ed and his older brother, Henry G. Gein (1901–1944).
George Gein was a violent alcoholic who was frequently unemployed. Ed and his brother rejected their violent, aimless father, as did Augusta, who treated her husband like a nonentity. Despite her deep contempt for her husband, the atrophic marriage persisted. Divorce was not an option due to the family’s religious beliefs. Augusta operated the small family grocery store and eventually purchased a farm on the outskirts of another small town, Plainfield, which became the Gein family’s permanent home.
Augusta moved to this desolate location to prevent outsiders from influencing her sons. Gein only left the premises to go to school and Augusta blocked any attempt he made to pursue friendships. Besides school, he spent most of his time doing chores on the farm. Augusta, who was a fanatical Lutheran, drummed into her boys the innate immorality of the world, the evil of drink and the belief that all women (herself excluded) were prostitutes and whores. According to Augusta, the only acceptable form of sex was for biological reproduction/procreation. She reserved time every afternoon to read to them from the Bible, usually selecting graphic verses from the Old Testament dealing with death, murder and divine retribution.
With a slight growth over one eye and an effeminate demeanor, the young Gein became a target for bullies. Classmates and teachers recall other off-putting mannerisms such as seemingly random laughter, as if he were laughing at his own personal joke. Despite his poor social development, he did fairly well in school, particularly in reading and the study of world economics.
By the time his father George died in 1940, Henry had begun to reject Augusta’s view of the world. He had even taken to bad-mouthing her within earshot of his mortified brother. In March 1944, the brothers found themselves in the middle of a brush fire on property they owned in a neighboring county. When Ed ran to get the police, he told them he had lost sight of Henry, but then led them directly to his brother’s corpse. Although there was evidence Henry had suffered blunt trauma to his head, the local county coroner decided he died of asphyxiation while fighting the fire. Gein then lived with his mother. Less than two years later, on December 29, 1945, Augusta died from a series of strokes, leaving her grief-stricken son alone on the isolated farmstead.
Police suspected Gein to be involved in the disappearance of a store clerk, Bernice Worden, in Plainfield on November 16, 1957. Upon entering a shed on his property, they made their first horrific discovery of the night: Worden’s corpse. She had been decapitated, her headless body hung upside down by means of ropes at her wrists and a crossbar at her ankles. Most horribly, the body’s trunk was empty, the ribcage split and the body “dressed out” like that of a deer. These mutilations had been performed postmortem; she had been shot at close-range with a .22-caliber rifle.
Searching the house, authorities found:
- Human skulls mounted upon the cornerposts of his bed
- Human skin fashioned into a lampshade and used to upholster chair seats
- Human skullcaps, apparently in use as soup bowls
- A human heart (it is disputed where the heart was found; the deputies’ reports all claim that the heart was in a saucepan on the stove, with some crime scene photographers claiming it was in a paper bag)
- The head of Mary Hogan, a local tavern owner, found in a paper bag
- A ceiling light pull consisting of human lips
- A “mammary vest” crafted from the skin of a woman’s torso
- A belt made from several human nipples, among many other such grisly objects
- Socks made from human flesh
Gein’s most notorious creations were an array of “shrunken heads.” Various neighborhood children — whom Gein occasionally babysat — had seen or heard of these objects, which Gein offhandedly described as relics from the South Seas, purportedly sent by a cousin who had served in World War II. Upon investigation, these turned out to be human facial skins, carefully peeled from cadavers and used by Gein as masks.
Gein eventually admitted under questioning that he would dig up the graves of recently buried middle-aged women he thought resembled his mother and take the bodies home, where he tanned their skin to make his macabre possessions. One writer describes Gein’s practice of putting on the tanned skins of women as an “insane transvestite ritual”. Gein denied having sex with the bodies he exhumed, explaining, “They smelled too bad.” During interrogation, Gein also admitted to the shooting death of Mary Hogan, who had been missing since 1954.
Shortly after his mother’s death, Gein decided he wanted a sex change, although it is a matter of some debate whether or not he was transsexual; by most accounts, he created his “woman suit” so he could pretend to be his mother, rather than change his sex.
Harold Schechter, an author of several true crime books, wrote a best-selling book about the Gein case called Deviant. In this book, Schechter mentions that Plainfield police officer Art Schley physically assaulted Gein during questioning by banging Gein’s head and face into a brick wall; because of this, Gein’s initial confession was ruled inadmissible. Schley died of a heart attack at the age of 43 shortly before Gein’s trial. Many who knew him said he was so traumatized by the horror of Gein’s crimes and the fear of having to testify (notably about assaulting Gein) that it led to his early death. One of his friends said, “He was a victim of Ed Gein as surely as if he had butchered him.”
Gein was found mentally incompetent and thus unfit to stand trial at the time of his arrest, and was sent to the Central State Hospital (now the Dodge Correctional Institution) in Waupun, Wisconsin. Later, Central State Hospital was converted into a prison and Gein was transferred to Mendota State Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin. In 1968, Gein’s doctors determined he was sane enough to stand trial; he was found not guilty by reason of insanity by judge Robert H. Gollmar and spent the rest of his life in the hospital.
While Gein was in detention, his house burned to the ground. Arson was suspected. In 1958, Gein’s car, which he used to haul the bodies of his victims, was sold at public auction for a then-considerable sum of $760 to an enterprising carnival sideshow operator named Bunny Gibbons. Gibbons called his attraction the “Ed Gein Ghoul Car” and charged carnival-goers 25 cents admission to see it.
On July 26, 1984, Ed Gein died of respiratory and heart failure due to cancer in Goodland Hall at the Mendota Mental Health Institute. His gravesite in the Plainfield cemetery was frequently vandalized over the years; souvenir seekers would chip off pieces of his gravestone before the bulk of it was stolen in 2000. The gravestone was recovered in June 2001 near Seattle and is presently displayed in a Wautoma, Wisconsin museum.

Mr. Gein has been a famous murderer indeed with his curtain peculiar mind. But monsters like him are not born, they’re made. Having a strong hatred for him is understandable but his parents, brother and classmates have played a huge role in his “self-destruction”.

To Daisy, I’m just a “normal” mother of one and i too saw Anderson Cooper. I dont think there is anything wrong with the site or the photos. She was not sending the email to the girls, but to their parent who are ADULTS. If they didn’t want to click on the link they didn’t have to. I have a 8 year old daughter and I would be just fine with her being my daughter’s girl scout leader. This is her life, she is a adult, she didn’t hurt anyone. More power to her and her husband for doing something “out of the box”, we are all different and like different things. I enjoy this site, find it interesting. I also found her very put together and well spoken on Anderson Cooper. If it doesn’t hurt you shut up and deal….

The owner of this site has a wife who is a girl scout leader and sent this website to parents. What was she thinking and why would she be part of such a horrid lifestyle? She was on Anderson Cooper saying nothing is wrong with her doing oral sex on a friend with a photo showing it for girl scouts to see.

Honestly… there is an issue if you really think women are the root of all evil. Men can’t have babies… so you wouldn’t even exist without women. Now it is a fact that women are generally more emotional than men, and I know the joke that women are all bad… in fact I use it all the time, so I just hope you aren’t serious. And Ed Gein had some issues… learned about him in Detective Fiction. Fascinatingly freaky.

like it or not, anyone who looks up to this man needs mental help, every single person who commented saying that he is inspireing or a good role model is also an outcast from society. everyone who like Ed Gein or thinks its fun to End someones life is just as sick as he is. people who realise that he had mental problems and feel abit sorry for him are not sick. there smart enough to know. looking this up or being curious about it is not at all sick, because it is interesting. me, honestly, im doing this man as part of a project for school, and i think that what he did was compleatly wrong. but he did belive that it was right, so for that reason, i feel just abit sorry for him. who I feel angry at is his perants because they are the ones who brought him up, and is he was rasied in a different environment he probably wouldnt of done these things. …still, his a sick and disturbed man and im glad he is dead, just remember – these people DO still exist and these types of things WILL happen again.

Yea, he was. So was Dr. Hannibal Lecter. I also think the deputy who slammed Gein’s head into the wall and died shortly after helped create “Multiple Miggs” in the movie. I promise I don’t obsess over this stuff, I just want to be in the FBI as a field in the behavioral science, like Agent Clarice Starling.

What in the fuck is wrong with you?
Even if that was a joke -which it sounds like it wasnt- why the fuck would you think Gein is a good role model?
Anybody who thinks that this man or ANY cerial killer is a good role model should be checked out by a psychatrist………………..
& also, why the fuck would you even post a comment like that one a website where many other random internet users, can see your comment & then you can just get ripped apart? I suggest that you get some fucking help before you become the next Ed Gein, because the world doesn’t need another sick fuck like that running around.

People are so ignorant. Anyone who has been saying things along the lines of feeling ‘bad’ for gien are just educated people who can understand that there is imperfections in some people’s minds. Serial killers have serious mental disorders and cant think feel or act on a function level as the majority of people in society. No one is saying they dont feel bad for the victims or what he did was not worng because what he did was wrong demented and sick but it takes someone who is truly educated to try and understand that someone who does shit like that is litterally living in a different world inside their mind and cannot help their sick thoughts, i doubt anyone wanta to feel isolated lonley or demented. Go to school.
Dawn
April 23, 2012 at 12:21 am
Very well stated Alex. People must realize that this is a mental illness. Yes, what he did was far and beyond wrong, but in his mind he thought it was right. That is the problem today, that these ‘serial killers’ and other criminals are packed away and not studied. Just as these victims’s families will have to deal with their future mental issues that stem from these actions (PTSD), the entirety of the situation, must be learned from, not shunned. As a nurse, I have patients who tell me stories of the things they have done, have had done to them and the things they have seen done to other. I often wonder what the people comitting these acts are really thinking and until they have a chance to speak without the judgement from person with whom they are speaking, the truth will never be understood.

THis is indeed gruesome, and chilling. It could happen to anybody, any place, any time. I have read, heard stories that will make you piss yuur pants or shit your pants, or be scared of the whole entire world. People who love this kind of thing, are gifted with utterly screaming rage and want to kill anybody in there path. Ed was insane, what he did, he was not in his entire mind, he wasnt thinking. But he was there when he gutted those poor woman. What his mother tought him was wrong, she tought him what her mother or father or both tought her. That all women are whores, and they should be killed. If that was to happen right now, the world would be quiet, and wouldnt that be comforting, no it wouldnt be, because we would go crazy. Ed Gein is a monster in peoples mind, but to me he is worse than the boogeyman. And the boogey is not real. Man is. If you study humans more often, you will find out we are all cannibals, we just cook th emeat, and the vegetarians, good luck.

No other movie will top the classic Deranged! All the imitators can try as they may but will never topple that 70′s classic Derange with Roberts Blossom. TX Chainsaw has nothing to do with Gein whatsoever. And Kane Hodder’s Ed Gein is the worst mis-cast film of all time and very poor! Why was Gein’s dimwitted offsider (Gus?) never mentioned much? Any pictures of that dumb dumb?

You people judge too much, this man was sick, but “sick” in a different way then one might think. I mental disorder shall we say. It is never ones choice to be born as a bi-polar, or any other mental disorders, it merely happens. Maybe he was not always like that, maybe it was because of the trauma that happened in his life. We may not know the whole story, maybe his mother abused him! Maybe there are parts they left out of the story to make him look like a psycho! This is just my opinion, seeing that i can understand anyone who has a mental disorder, i myself do, i spent two years in an asylum. This is just from the point of view of a girl who is quite psycho herself. <3

No he is sick in more ways than one. Yeah he may have a mental disorder but people that are sick in the other way like doing what he did have a chance to seek help and he didn’t. He didn’t think what he was doing was wrong and was normal. But nobody he lived around did it so he should’ve known it wasn’t normal and reached out.

You’re first sentence amuses me. “You people judge too much.” who are you to judge that?

Little heads up. The Museum in Wautoma no longer has the headstone. When my friend and I stopped in to see it, the Curator told us that a family member has it and possibly put it in an unknow cemetery so people would stop chipping at it. But NOW people are chipping at his mothers headstone. Pretty sad when history is destroyed by idiots. The Museum does have information about Ed Gein and is attached to the old jail where he was held. His isolation cell is one of the few cells that remain. They turned his cell into the history of the railroad that went through Wautoma. Thought I’d share this info with anyone who is wanting to go see the headstone.

Recently my boyfriend & I took a trip to Plainfield for an Ed Gein Adventure (on his birthday). We drove to the SW corner of 5th ave & Archer ave where the websites say it’s located.. but the property there resembled nothing of what I’ve seen online. It was very very wooded & actually had a small cabin on the lot. I didn’t see any No Trespassing signs anywhere. If anyone could tell me if this was the right location, or the actual location, that’d be super awesome! Thanks ;)

That’s the right location… but it’s not going to look like pics of 1957, if that’s what you mean. All buildings long gone & plenty of pines planted shortly after ’57. See this vid @ .55 sec; this should look about like what you saw.

Of possible interest: The La Crosse grocery store, on 914 Caledonia St., was not started from scratch.
a J. B. Turnbull operated a successful store at 912-914 Calendonia St, begun in 1887. I believe the business changed hands to the Geins circa 1905-1906.
Did the Gein’s purchase Turnbulls’ business (and if so, does that mean the Gein’s had ‘some’ money?) or did the business close/move and the Gein’s merely bought a grocery-ready store? To date, I haven’t found anything further on either grocery store.

Would like clarification on where Ed witnessed the infamous hog butchering; La Crosse (would that make the business a grocery/butcher shop?), in the year they lived in Juneau County, or was it in the summer kitchen at Archer & 2nd?

Skimming through my “Deviant: The Shocking True Story of Ed Gein, the Original ‘Psycho’” by Harold Schechter, it says that it was behind the meat & grocery store in La Crosse in a windowless, wooden outbuilding he was forbidden to enter.

What the fuck is wrong everyone?You actually feel bad for a man who made lampshades out of people? If you do, then you are just as derranged as that sick fuck, and you need to be locked up too. I don’t care what kind of upbringing he had or anyone else for that matter; it does not justify mutilating people, and making furniture out of them. Please if anyone looks up to this sick freak in any way, you need to get your head checked.. Oh and one more thing; who ever posted that shit about being the molesting uncle; who gives a shit if she spells wrong! Obviously there is plenty of things wrong with you..who says stuff like that? You are a piece of shit and a weirdo. Instead of posting comments here, google a psychiatrist in your area..,

Hey Brook,
Ed’s tombstone is not in the old jail museum, but put away in the current Waushara County Jail. They decided not to put it back in the cemetery for fear of being stolen again. It was found in Washington State and returned to Wisconsin in 2001.

When I first heard about Ed Gein, I couldn’t help but wonder what kind of abuse he must have suffered as a child to have developed such a twisted mind. I feel for his victims, but I also wonder how different things might have been if someone had intervened to give the child Ed Gein used to be safe and normal life; if someone had intervened back when he was the victim.
Don’t get me wrong. Locking him up was the right thing to do. I am not suggesting his crimes should have been excused because he lived an isolated, abusive childhood. I’m saying that if we better protect the children of our society, we might never again have to witness the likes of Ed Gein.

September 9, 2011 at 2:58 pm
umm well sounds like your kinda feeling bad for him and if you were to read all about this sick asshole you would know that he killed his brother when he was a child so he was fucked up from the get go he should have been put away as a child and this wouldn’t have happened how could you possibly feel bad for such a sick and twisted person
Kris
March 11, 2012 at 9:42 pm
actually he didnt kill his brother as a child. if you read correctly u would see that ed gein was born in 1906 and his older brother in 1901. Henry Gein died in 1944 which would put their ages at 43 and 38. far from childhood on both there parts. get your facts straight.and you can feel bad bc he got a shitty end of life. i mean he had a shit childhood and not to mention he probaly had some issues in his head. i mean his father was a chronic alcoholic and that can screw with you body. my guess is ed was a result of a batch of sideways swimming spermies. then ontop of that he had all the abuse from his mother and his father not to metion everybody else around him. oh and by the way, it was documented and decided that his brother died of asphyxiation
