'''Edward Theodore Gein''' (August 27th, 1906 - July 26th, 1984) was an American serial killer and [[Body snatching|body snatcher]] also known as '''The Mad Butcher''' and '''The Butcher of Plainfield'''. Gein is widely regarded among the most infamous serial killers in American history, his only two confirmed victims were Bernice Worden and Mary Hogan. Aside from the murders, Gein was known for human trophy collecting and robbed bones and flesh from many local graveyards in his hometown of Plainfield, Wisconsin were most of his crimes were committed.

==Early Life==

Edward Gein had a hellish childhood; his mother, [[Augusta Gein]], was a pious woman who would read Gein and his brother Henry handpicked Bible verses from the Old Testament, often of a misogynistic or grotesque context. Ed's father, George, was an alcoholic which caused a significant amount of tension in his family. Augusta detested her husband due to his alcoholism and inability to hold down a job, which many speculate may have been a contributing factor in Gein descending into insanity.

Edward was extremely close to his mother, who tried to control every aspect of his life, when at school she would punish him for establishing friendship with any of his classmates. Many of the staff at his school saw Eddie as abnormal, he was shy and possessed a rather eccentric personality, this included randomly laughing for no apparent reason and strange mannerisms.
