When it comes to serial killers, Ed Gein is one of the most infamous of all. It’s almost time to learn more in Psycho: The Lost Tapes of Ed Gein.
Ed Gein is one of those serial killers who has become the inspiration for a lot of work. We just have to look at how his twisted relationship with his mother inspired the movie Psycho, or how his killings inspired The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
And yet, there is still little that we understand about him. His mind has been something for investigators and scholars to delve into time and time again to figure out what led to the things that he did. Was he born or made into the man that he became?
There’s a chance that the lost tapes that have been uncovered will help many figure out more. We delve into those lost tapes in the new docuseries coming to MGM+ this weekend. Just how many episodes will there be?
