In 1960, Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho changed the face of horror.
But the most terrifying part?
It was based on true events.
There really was a Norman Bates.
His name?
Ed Gein.
The Plainfield Butcher.
The Body Snatcher.
The ghoul who transformed the corpses of his victims
into a skinsuit to remind him of his dead mother.
Gein not only inspired Norman, but also an entire culture
of cinematic psychos that haunt our dreams.
Now, 63 years later, on the anniversary of Ed's arrest,
and for the very first time, we seek proof and answers.
Does Ed Gein still torment Plainfield, Wisconsin today?
Mary? Will the evil spirit of Ed Gein
and the atrocities committed here...
I don't even want to see this. Oh, God!
...forever haunt this small Midwestern town?
First day of investigation.
It is November 12th, 2020.
And I'm in Plainfield, Wisconsin.
Population just barely over 900.
I'm here to investigate claims of the paranormal by local residents
who believe the spirit of Ed Gein,
one of the most monstrous killers in American history,
is haunting this community.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
On the night of November 16th, 1957,
a missing persons investigation was underway in Plainfield.
Bernice Worden, owner of the local hardware store,
had vanished that morning after a visit
from the town's reclusive handyman, 51-year old Ed Gein.
With the suspect already taken into custody,
investigators executed a search warrant on his home.
Check upstairs.
(FOOTSTEPS)
(FLOORBOARDS CREAK)
(SQUEAKING)
(PANTS)
By morning, the depth of Gein's depravity had been fully revealed.
Not only did police find Bernice Worden's decapitated body
hanging from the rafters, they also uncovered a chair
upholstered with human skin, skulls turned into bowls,
silverware made from bones,
a belt made from nipples,
and, finally, Gein's masterpiece,
a suit sewn together from the skins of multiple women.
Amongst the grisly collection,
police also found the face of Mary Hogan,
a Plainfield tavern owner who'd mysteriously disappeared
in the middle of a shift three years earlier.
Bernice and Mary were the only women Gein admitted to killing.
The other ten, he had dug up from the local cemetery
to use in his creations.
Is it any wonder that many Plainfield residents
believe the spirit of Ed Gein still terrorises this area?
That's why I'm here.
Ever since Ed Gein's house of horrors was discovered,
Plainfield, Wisconsin, has been a hotbed of paranormal activity.
The activity runs the gamut of everything from personal attack,
people being scratched, shadowy figures, disembodied voices,
and some of the residents actually believe the spirit of Ed Gein
is making them physically ill.
Here, I have several sites of interest where the inhabitants
and the owners claim to have extreme paranormal activity.
My goal is to investigate and interview everybody we possibly can.
And right now, we need to head to our first location,
which is the original home of Ed Gein, the Ed Gein Farm.
So, right now, we're going through the heart
of small town, downtown, Plainfield.
It's so small, it's so remote
that you can imagine how close-knit it must be.
And when you drive through here, you can just only imagine
how much the Ed Gein murders affected this community.
It must of have just sent shock waves right through the whole town.
Cindy Kaza is a renowned psychic medium
who can communicate with the spirit world.
I've asked her to meet me at Ed Gein's property
and have only told her the basic details of the case.
As we approach the Gein farm, I'm definitely getting excited,
got a nervous energy about me,
I just wanna get out there, see what I can see,
feel what we can feel.
Yeah, that's it. That's Ed Gein's farm.
Right there's the gate.
It's kind of an ominous feeling just being here in this spot.
This will be the first time in history
anyone has been allowed back on the property to investigate,
just five days before the anniversary of his arrest.
In the months after the murder, the Gein farm
became a ghoulish attraction visited by locals and tourists alike,
eager for a glimpse of real-life horror.
But that all came to an abrupt end in March of 1958.
The farm where Ed Gein lived
and where much of the grizzly evidence has been found,
has been levelled. It burned down one night.
All these years later, trees and brush have overgrown
most of the farm site. But Cindy should still be able to sense
if the ghost of Ed Gein still lurks nearby.
(BIRDSONG)
I want to see if Cindy can sense where the house was
and tap into the paranormal energy on the land.
Cindy. Steve, good to see you. Good to see you, too.
How's it going? Good. Thanks so much for coming out. Absolutely.
So, we're about to walk into a lot of energy that I worry
could affect us mentally and emotionally, so just be on guard.
OK. Yeah. Absolutely.
I couldn't agree more. Yeah.
Yeah. (SIGHS) There's gotta be something really significant
about this area right here.
It's like, I keep feeling there, but then they're like, "No, go back,
stand right here, stand right here.
This is where you need to be."
So, I need to trust it. So, it should be right...
..right there.
You're spot on. This is exactly where the Ed Gein farm house was.
It's super intense here.
So every... Everything has energy attached to it.
So what I want to do is touch the ground
and see what feelings or images come to me when I do that.
(OK.)
Oh, wow! That's not good.
(GROANS) I-I-I just keep seeing blood.
I keep seeing throats being slit and blood pouring out of the neck.
Is there a hill?
Or is there, like, a...
any part of this land that has a little bit of a hill,
or a mound or something?
I think there's a bit of a slope like that about 20 yards this way.
A mound. The hill... I keep...
I keep seeing it, but I keep feeling there are bodies buried there.
There's bodies buried there. There's more...
There's more death on this property that happened.
And... And there are pieces...
of remains spread out on this land.
OK. Um...
(SIGHS) In my mind, I see this flash of a woman.
And this woman, she's wearing like a nightgown,
like a sleeping outfit. She is standing right there.
I can see her, she's following us.
I see her. Like she is... It's kinda like she's stalking us, Steve.
She's very, very aware that we're here.
And she's not happy about it. I can sense her.
I sense her. I honestly feel like it's mother.
I feel like she's here, honestly. I feel like she's here.
And she's also protective of her family's reputation.
She doesn't like it.
I believe that Cindy is picking up on the spirit of Augusta Gein,
Ed Gein's mother.
We've only been on the farm here for a few minutes
and she's already tapping into Augusta's energy.
Mom, Mother, is calling me a little witch.
She's...she's calling me a witch.
I feel her spirit still.
Her spirit still walks around here
and she is really pissed off that I'm here,
because I'm doing the devil's work, in her mind.
I sense her.
I honestly feel like it's Mother.
I feel like she's here. Honestly, I feel like she's here.
And she's also protective of her family's reputation.
So anytime we start to dig up dirt, she's not gonna like it.
So the more that we uncover... She doesn't like it.
She was an extremely dominating force. Yeah.
From Ed's psych evaluation,
it's clear Augusta shaped her son into the madman he'd become.
With Ed's father consumed by alcoholism,
it was Augusta who ran the household with an iron fist.
A domineering religious zealot
who taught her sons that women were evil.
After his father died of heart failure in 1940,
and his older brother Henry was killed
in a suspicious fire on the farm in 1944,
it was just Augusta and Ed living together.
Townsfolk thought Ed was a little weird and kind of effeminate,
peculiar for never starting a family of his own.
No one really knew the half of it.
For this small Wisconsin community of under 700 persons,
they remember the shock and the fear that suddenly gripped them
when the grizzly tale of Ed Gein became public.
Well, I've known him ever since he was a little boy.
And he seems to be a little odd.
Odd? Odd. I always figured he was just perfectly harmless.
Augusta died in 1945 when Ed was 39,
and that's when his behaviour started to change.
Could it be Augusta's hold on her son was so strong
that she controlled him from the grave?
And I think that's exactly the energy that Cindy is picking up on.
And it's extremely unpleasant.
I feel we're gonna uncover deeper things...about this property itself.
A night investigation here, I can only imagine. Yeah.
This entire investigation of everything, be careful.
We should probably trek out of here. You ready? Yeah.
We just got done walking the Gein Farm.
I can tell you the energy here at the farm is extremely powerful.
I can feel it, Cindy's picking up on a lot of different things.
I think we're gonna stop now. We need to head into town,
get our bearings and come back with more information.
But we are definitely coming back here for a full-on investigation.
While Cindy regroups before tonight's investigation,
I'm headed to Worden's hardware store in downtown Plainfield.
That's where Ed murdered Bernice
before bringing her back to his house and stringing her up
and gutting her like a deer.
The theory is after Augusta died,
Ed was so devasted he would do anything to bring her back.
The Worden's hardware store is one of the most infamous locations
involving the Gein murders.
On November 16th, Ed went there
under the guise of purchasing antifreeze.
Bring your jug?
But most people believe his real goal was to kill Bernice,
who reminded him of his dear mother.
(WOMAN WHISPERS) 'Do it now.
Be careful.'
Some people even claim that Ed heard Augusta's voice
urging him to do these terrible things.
Do it, Ed. Do it now!
No! (GUNSHOT)
After Bernice's murder, fewer and fewer people
wanted to step foot in the hardware store.
It went out of business and the building was sold.
It's now a storage facility.
The current owners feel like they're being watched all the time
and there are unexplained cold spots.
And one time, a glass flew off the shelf and broke on its own.
Ed Gein confessed to killing Bernice Worden inside this building,
but the question remains, why?
The theory is that he targeted middle-aged women
who resembled his mother just to use them in his skin suit.
Hey, Cindy. What's up, Steve?
Here you go. Thank you.
OK.
Worden's Hardware store. Right.
We know Ed killed Bernice Worden right here in this very shop.
And I'm wondering if the evil from that brutal murder
remains here to this day. Right.
Is Worden's even haunted? And if so, by who?
Also, I wanna see if you can pinpoint and sense
the exact location where Bernice was murdered.
I've got devices set up in multiple spots,
I've got infrared light covering us.
I think I want to just kind of take a second
to feel into...where I'm drawn.
I'm here, right. I'm here, but I'm also...at his house.
I can't separate my visions from here and his house.
(BEEPING)
That beeping, where is that coming from? That's the REM pod.
This device alerts when a spirit is in close proximity.
Is somebody here with us?
(BEEPING)
(BEEPING CONTINUES)
I wanna do some automatic writing in here,
but, in all honesty, I'm a little bit afraid
to open myself up to the energy of this...this case.
So, I'm gonna do it,
because I think it will help us put some pieces together,
but I'm gonna need you to make sure to watch my back. OK.
In case things get really weird.
100%. Yeah.
(BEEPING)
This is insane, Cindy. I know.
So you can sit right there and you can put your lantern on the table
and your tablet. OK.
Automatic writing is a technique Cindy uses
to open herself up to the spirit world.
She's hoping to connect directly to Bernice.
But the REM pod beeping is nonstop.
(BEEPING) Honestly, every time I try to tap in or I start zoning in,
they go off. It's like a distraction.
It's almost like... to stop me from getting answers.
(BEEPING)
Cindy's only been in Worden's for a matter of minutes
and already the activity is through the roof.
And now something is beginning to target her specifically.
(BEEPING)
(SIGHS)
OK, so the woman...who worked here,
the woman who had died, he...he hit her on the head.
Bernice was actually shot in the back of the head.
(SIGHS) That's what you're picking up on.
That's the hit to the head. And then it also said
that like he led her or she led him to get something.
Je must have come into the store to get something or tricked her.
I feel that's very much what happened.
It's exactly what happened. It's what happened.
He came in here to buy antifreeze. Oh, my God!
I honestly don't feel that her spirit is...is here.
It's not stuck here. I feel like
there's some psychic imprinting thing that could happen,
or memory attached to the building... Right.
..but I don't feel like she's...
..stuck here.
If you don't think Bernice is here,
what do you suspect is the activity that the owners' describe?
The feeling of being watched?
Honestly, the thing with Ed is that I feel once you start
tapping into his presence or his energy, it follows you.
It follows you. It can be anywhere. Once you're on that land,
it's like it gets into you.
(BEEPING)
Let's go take a look.
A lot of broken glass right here.
(GLASS CRUNCHES)
It sounded like knocking or tapping.
What was that? Your camera died?
It's insane, the battery drain in this building.
Everything's dying. There was a knocking.
I heard it. I heard it. If your camera is dead,
go ahead and put it down and go get the SLS system.
Let's see if we can capture an anomaly here.
Throughout the investigation tonight,
we've used a lot of different gear,
but right now, I'm gonna focus on using an SLS.
Basically, the SLS shoots out a pattern of infrared lights
and anything that's three-dimensional, like a person,
will appear on the screen as an anomaly.
Well, whatever and whoever is in this building...
..likes to mess with people.
My ear just started ringing.
It's weird.
His spirit is definitely here.
His energy is definitely in this building.
(BEEPING)
(That's crazy!) Mm-hm.
It's right next to you, Cindy. I mean, right next to you.
I feel something coming close.
Oh, God! Are you OK?
Yeah. No, I just had an image of my ear being chewed off,
like bitten off.
There's something building, it's coming right behind me.
I feel it in my chest.
Something with my ear being sliced off.
If this is you, Ed, are you threatened by Cindy's presence?
Her ability to call these things out as she sees them?
And now it's gone. Hm.
I feel like he's not gone, though.
I'm trying to feel where...
..where the trail... where the body would've been.
Where did this happen?
It's almost like I wanna be right in here.
I do have something here that may be able to help us.
Ed Gein used the excuse to come here to Worden's hardware store
because he needed antifreeze.
This could be a perfect trigger object.
Using a trigger item helps to remind the spirit
of something that's important to them,
to entice the spirit to communicate.
Was this the spot, Ed?
Is this where it happened? Can you set the record straight?
(BEEPING)
(Right there.)
(BEEPING)
Ed, is there more bodies on the farm?
(BEEPING) Yeah.
(BEEPING)
Sounds like Ed has more to tell us.
(BEEPING)
I definitely think there's a lot more to the story.
There's no question in my mind, we contacted Ed Gein tonight. I agree.
This is a really dangerous space to be walking in.
So, that investigation was extremely intense.
I had no idea we were gonna capture that much activity,
or that Cindy was gonna tap into Gein's energy,
basically right off the bat.
He can interact with us, he's aware of our presence,
and he is trying to communicate with us.
We are definitely dealing with an intelligent being,
it's an intelligent haunting.
The old Worden's hardware store in Plainfield Wisconsin,
definitely haunted.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
(SIGHS HEAVILY) During the investigation at Worden's,
I truly believe that the spirit of Gein was trying to attach
or attack or harm Cindy, because she's a woman.
All of Gein's victims were female.
And I believe he was trying to get to her.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
Tonight was our first night on the Gein investigation
and...man, it was intense.
As a woman on this case,
I feel like I'm a target. I feel like Gein wants to harm me.
I feel like I'm a walking trigger object.
And being that this is only day one,
I really have no idea what we're in for,
but I know that I really need to keep my guard up.
Now that we know that Worden's is haunted,
I'm curious if other locations around town are haunted as well.
Many of the locals claim that the old Waushara County Jail
is actually haunted. That's the jail where Ed Gein
was held and questioned by police for three days.
Bernice was murdered inside her hardware store
on the morning of November 16th.
(HUBBUB) Less than 24 hours later,
police found her decapitated body hanging from Gein's ceiling,
gutted liken an animal.
Inside a nearby burlap sack,
they discovered her head.
Police quickly found Ed having dinner at a neighbour's house.
They arrested him and brought him down to the station.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
For the first 30 hours of his arrest,
Gein refused to talk to the police.
(METAL RATTLES)
He initially denies everything.
How long? Huh?
How long has this been going on?
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
I got a tip today that a local paranormal investigator
named Michelle actually visited the old Waushara County Jail,
which is now a museum.
She claims she was physically attacked by Gein himself.
So, tomorrow I wanna meet with her
and learn everything I can about her experience at the old jail.
But I wanna do it by myself without Cindy.
I don't want Cindy to have any information about the case
or how or why the old jail could be haunted.
Hi. Thanks so much for meeting me out here.
Nice to meet you. You too.
You've got some evidence for me to check out? I do.
We were investigating the jail at Waushara County
on some EVP and you could hear him say "Ed" and then "Edward".
Felt a sensation on the back of my neck,
and all of a sudden there was a burning sensation
from the right to the left,
and it felt like I was being scratched.
Since then, I actually feel that...
he still is somehow attached to me.
So...
You seem pretty shook up right now just even talking about it.
Yeah, it...it bothers me, actually.
I really appreciate you doing this.
I know it probably feels like opening up wounds again. Yeah.
But we're just really trying
to get to the bottom of what's happening here in Plainfield. Yeah.
Let me play the video recording you and your group captured at the jail.
(STATIC)
Edward. That's incredible.
What's your name?
And this is the cell that he was in for four days.
You can start seeing my body language.
"(STATIC)"
Like, that's when I started feeling something in the back of my neck.
(STATIC)
"Eat them."
That's exactly what it says.
He's there, he hasn't left.
"(STATIC)"
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
From right... From right there.
(STATC AND CHATTER)
Right there. Yeah, you can see it. Right there. Yeah.
Once again, it's interesting. There's some guys in your team
and it didn't go after them. No. But it went after the female,
which is true to Ed Gein's nature. Correct.
It's one thing for people to say,
"we believe the spirit of Ed Gein still haunts our community,"
but you were personally marked. Mm-hm.
Well, being marked is scary,
because you don't know what's next, what's gonna happen next.
That's a little frustrating for me,
cos I don't know what his intentions are.
He is a very strong...presence,
and I think that controls a lot that goes on in this area.
What Michelle experienced is truly incredible.
And what's really amazing to me
is she still feels targeted by Gein even after her encounter.
(THUNDER)
Now it's time for Cindy to visit the museum
and see if she can connect to the old jail that once stood here
and its most notorious prisoner.
All right, Cindy, I'm gonna give you one of these. Great. Thank you.
(SIGHS)
It's like I want to come right here.
I'm really confused, cos I feel here and then... I don't...
Was there ever another one?
Another cell that used to be here but isn't here any more?
Something like that, yes. That's why I feel so confused,
cos it's like I feel like it used to be here, but it's not here.
Like, there's something missing.
Um...
(SIGHS) OK.
There's something about this door.
This door feels really important.
It feels...
I feel like this door is right, other things have been moved.
Something's been moved and changed, but this is right.
What's shocking to me, Cindy, is you were drawn to this room.
This was Ed Gein's cell.
And the reason this differs from the smaller more traditional cells,
is they knew they were gonna be
coming in here questioning him a lot,
trying to get confessions
and possibly to keep him away from the other inmates,
because I'm sure they wanted to do him harm.
The thing that I feel is, is I keep hearing...I keep hearing him say,
"I think Mother would be proud." But...
"Mother would be proud of the work I did."
Like he really felt he was making his mother proud
by killing these women.
Could it be possible that Ed
was being influenced or controlled by his mother from the grave?
He's very manipulative though, the way that he treats people.
He's so manipulative. The lies, there's so many lies.
So many lies.
So you think he was being pretty deceitful with his confessions,
not telling everything or misleading the facts? Absolutely.
My head is getting tingly. That's really weird.
Let me turn on my Mel Meter. If Ed's currently here with us,
perhaps we'll see spikes in EMF and fluctuation in temperature.
(STATIC)
Who's with us?
(STATIC)
(STATIC FLUCTUATES)
That sounded like a response. Yeah.
(STATIC)
Did you say Ed?
(STATIC FLUCTUATES)
(BEEPING)
This is crazy. Yeah.
I mean, this is crazy. Yeah. (BEEPING)
(BEEPING)
(STATIC FLUCTUATES)
Ed, are you with us?
(STATIC FLUCTUATES)
(BEEPING / STATIC) Interference.
As soon as I turned on my devices,
everything went completely haywire.
The K2, the Mel Meter.
The spirit of Ed Gein is absolutely here
and the old Waushara County Jail is definitely haunted.
(BEEPING / STATIC)
Huge hits...repeatedly.
(BEEPING / STATIC)
(BEEPING)
This is crazy. Yeah. I mean, this is crazy.
Yeah. (BEEPING / STATIC)
It was like all chaos at once. (BEEPING) Mm-hm.
(BEEPING) Well, I think we got an answer.
Yeah, immediate answer.
(BEEPING)
(BEEPING STOPS)
I gotta be honest, I don't...
I'm not often afraid
and I don't wanna go so far as saying that I'm afraid.
I... We have to be really careful.
We have to be really careful.
Yeah. And the crew, everyone. Everybody. Everybody.
Everybody has to be really, really careful,
cos we're about to kick the hornet's nest.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
Investigating the jail tonight was...crazy.
I mean, I definitely believe
there is something going on with Ed and his mom.
And I really believe that he thought that if he did all of these things,
that his mom would be proud of him.
And that's exactly why he was doing all of these things.
What an incredible day. We definitely made contact
with the spirit of Ed Gein, we wholeheartedly believe that.
Cindy was able to tap into his energy.
And with all the information that we've acquired
and all the knowledge that we now have,
the next move from here? I wanna go back to the Ed Gein farm.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
We're on the way to the Gein Farm. I truly believe his spirit,
his energy is plaguing and haunting the town of Plainfield.
And especially, of course, his nature of targeting women.
We're also feeling the power
of everything that's been said about him for so many years.
Nobody can forget this guy's name.
His legacy is burned and just seared
into the minds, actually, of millions. Mm-hm.
This is about as evil as anything could be.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
We've got everything set up.
I've got the spirit box located back there.
Right here is the Ovulus.
Over here I've got the REM pod set up on that stand.
And, of course, the trigger item, which is the antifreeze can,
basically what Ed Gein used to falsely gain Bernice's trust
to go into Worden's Hardware store when he murdered her.
Man, this dark here, it is dark. I'm telling you, it is dark here.
It's like you can feel...
That feeling of being watched right now is so intense.
I feel like...
Oh... Oh, that's interesting.
His mother never let him have a voice or...or a thought of his own.
It was always from her, it was always what she said.
He never had a voice.
She was the true evil. She's really evil.
And I keep feeling like she would say things like,
"I'm gonna get the demons out of you. The demons out of you."
Right, like already he grew up thinking he was evil
and women were evil. Everything around him is evil except her,
so, you know... But she's really evil, the mom.
As a young child, I... I'm sad for him.
Because I don't think he was...
I don't think he was born this way.
You think he was created?
I...I feel like she created a monster.
All right, spirit box session.
(STATIC FLUCTUATES)
Ed, are you here?
(STATIC FLUCTUATES)
Major interference.
Come on, Ed, come through.
(STATIC FLUCTUATES)
I don't know what the hell's happening right now.
This thing is just completely fried!
(STATIC FLUCTUATES)
(STATIC STOPS) Just like at the jail,
as soon as I turn on my Mel Meter, instantly it began going crazy
with tons of readings. Something is definitely here,
something is trying to communicate with us.
I wanna see if Cindy can do an automatic writing session
and try to tap into and make some form of communication and contact
with the same spirit.
(SIGHS) OK.
Ed Gein, are you here with us right now?
He wanders the fields...
..in search of her body.
I feel like I'm gonna throw up, I'm getting really, really nervous.
Like, I don't feel good.
OK. (SIGHS)
Oh.
He will not leave this field or this town until she is with him,
like he wants to be near his mom.
It feels evil. It feels really evil.
It feels just evil. And every time I feel into the mother,
it just feels so dark!
I started feeling how much of an effect Ed's mom, Augusta,
had on him and it was overwhelming.
For a moment there, I just really had empathy for Ed,
because I knew that he had been abused.
I knew that his mother... really hurt him.
It's as if I was looking through Ed's eyes and through his emotions,
and I knew that everything that he did...was for his mother.
I think it's time to use the GeoPort
and see if Ed or his mother will speak to us.
Ed Gein, are you here?
(SOUND ECHOES)
Communicate with me.
(SOUND ECHOES)
What is your name?
(SOUND ECHOES)
Gein.
It said Gein.
Why did you kill Bernice Worden?
Ed. Does it. Mom.
(SOUND ECHOES) Ed. Does it. Mom.
Augusta, are you present?
Be gone. Female voice, be gone.
If you have that intelligence, prove it.
What is my name?
(SOUND ECHOES) Steve.
What is my friend's name that came with me?
Cindy. (SOUND ECHOES)
It just said Cindy.
Augusta, we would like to communicate with you. Are you here?
Here. It said here.
Are you OK with us being on the property?
Stay out.
Why would you want Ed to hurt women?
Demon.
(SOUND ECHOES)
Now I'm asking him in my mind,
where are the rest of the women that you killed?
Where are the rest of the bodies? Like where are they?
"There were 12...that died.
He took...
..the 11th...
to the barn."
Oh, God!
I can't... I don't even want to see this.
He made her wear his mother's necklace.
Like he would actually take his mother's things
and put them on these women.
Oh!
Oh, God!
I can't... I don't even wanna see this.
This is too much.
(SNIFFS)
Dude, this is a lot.
Like, this is so... this is so intense.
I'm not surprised Cindy is having such a strong reaction
to the atrocities Ed committed on this property.
After his arrest, Gein admitted that he didn't just sew the suit
to bring his mother back from the grave,
he wanted to crawl inside it and actually become his mother.
Ed's bizarre behaviour raises so many questions.
Did he kill and dismember women
because his mother taught him they were evil?
Was his gruesome craft project some type of offering to her?
And why wear the skin suit? To feel his mother's love
or somehow revel in her power over him?
Honestly, it's gonna take me a while to shake this location.
Yeah, it's draining. I think at this point
there's no question that we both came in contact with Ed Gein,
his mother Augusta, that's clear.
Tomorrow, I wanna go to the Plainfield Cemetery.
That's where both of their bodies are laid to rest
and I think that's where we need to go. Yeah.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
Tonight, um...
..is just really tough.
To see what Ed did to these women and to see...
..how evil this was, it's just pure evil.
And, you know, I'm supposed to open myself up
to experience the things in a case so I can sense what happened,
but I just don't feel safe doing that any more at all.
While using the GeoPort to investigate,
voices were coming through the device that would lead us to believe
that Augusta Gein, Ed's mother, was responsible, in a sense,
for these murders. That she was urging and wanting Ed
to kill these poor, innocent women.
At this point, I wanna put more focus on Augusta
and go out to the cemetery where she's buried,
where the locals claim to actually see a female apparition,
possibly her apparition.
And I wanna dig into more of her story to find out
could Augusta Gein really be responsible?
Was she influencing Ed to commit these atrocities?
Cindy, we're getting very close to the Plainfield Cemetery.
I'm gonna go meet with my contact, Dave, who's a local here.
He's gonna show me where Ed Gein's unmarked grave actually is.
And I know you like to go into these cases blind,
so I'll just have you kind of sit here in the truck.
That's better for me. This is a well-known case,
but I want to go in as blind as possible,
and if I know what people have been experiencing,
it might affect what I receive.
So it's better that I just get what I get. All right, excellent.
The Plainfield, Wisconsin Cemetery is an eerie place.
In one row, you can find Ed Gein, his brother, Henry,
his mother, Augusta, his father,
and just a mere 50 yards away
is the grave of Ed Gein's victim, Bernice Worden.
(CAR DOORS CLOSE)
Night two of our investigation,
and Plainfield historian, Dave Bignell,
has agreed to meet me at the cemetery on the outskirts of town.
So, Dave, how long have you lived in this area?
I've lived in this area my entire life.
There is a lotta... history in this cemetery.
Ed is buried amongst a lot of his victims,
a lot of the people that he dug up.
So, this is where Ed was laid to rest.
You notice his headstone is gone.
That's because people would come in and chip away at it.
People come in here, steal some dirt, maybe do some occult stuff.
Black magic? Absolutely. Yeah, that would be my first thought.
That's very unusual to see all the hair
and tufts of different feathers.
(GUNSHOT) In addition to killing Mary Hogan in 1954
and Bernice Worden in 1957,
Gein admitted to digging up corpses of at least nine middle-aged women
from three cemeteries in the Plainfield area, including this one.
After carrying a body home, Ed would get to work,
harvesting the raw materials he needed for his gruesome creations.
It was the skin he treasured most,
carefully removing it, then tanning it like leather.
Gein's women suit may have been his showpiece,
but he also was obsessed with his victims' faces,
peeling them from their skulls to create a series of human masks.
This is his brother, that he is considered to have killed,
although he was never charged with it.
And his mother...
..whom he wanted to raise from the dead.
Once again, Dave is confirming theories that we've learned so far.
One, that Ed was obsessed with his mother
and wanted to bring her back from the dead.
'Rise!' And two, he heard voices, possibly his mother's voice,
instructing him to kill and rob graves.
Dave, do the locals really believe that this cemetery is haunted?
The people who will talk about it do believe that this area's haunted.
If they walk through here with lights,
they see shadows where shadows shouldn't be, that are moving.
They can hear screaming and wailing, mostly female.
With everything that happened over all those years,
there's a pretty widespread belief that this is a haunted area.
Do you think the spirit of Augusta Gein is here in the cemetery?
Absolutely. It was time to bring in Cindy.
But just as I was about to walk to the car,
I realised we weren't alone.
(ENGINE APPROACHES)
(CAR DOOR CLOSES) We're tired of people like you
coming here and doing this.
You need to leave!
As Dave and I were finishing up our conversation,
some locals were approaching us very upset at our presence
here at the Plainfield Cemetery. This is a place of rest.
They have loved ones here
and they may even be related to the victims of Ed Gein.
The wound has not been healed here.
I can understand where they're coming from.
So, out of respect for them, we're just gonna leave
and see if Cindy can do some remote viewing of the cemetery.
Cindy, I know you've got the ability to tap in with remote viewing.
Now can you kind of explain to me the process?
I'll project myself to the location, to the cemetery,
and see what I feel, because I don't actually
have to physically be there to sense what's going on there.
OK. Yeah. OK.
When it comes to the location of his grave,
something has definitely been changed
that's not just his stone being moved.
There's another piece that's missing,
there's another piece that I feel is hidden from the public.
Something's different.
I'm just sensing that...
Ed doesn't feel he's actually with his mother.
Even in death... Ed dug up bodies from graves.
Wow! That's interesting.
I see him in this attempt
to lay down next to her and hug her.
It's almost like he wants to get in the grave with her
and hold her.
Like if he had actually gotten her out of the grave.
He used to brush his mother's hair.
There's something with that,
cos I see him wanting to brush her hair.
Oh, man!
And then the sense I get is... every woman that he killed,
it's like an offering to his mother.
Like, "See what I did Mom? See. Look.
This is for you. I'm doing this for you."
It's all for her. It's all for Mother.
After she died...
Mother, I'm here.
..he would have conversations with her in his mind.
In his mind, he was still living with his mother?
He's still living with his mother.
Like the movie Psycho got it right.
That's exactly it.
Do you really believe that Gein
thought he could raise his mom from the dead?
I don't feel he thought he could raise her from the dead
and that she would start talking again.
I feel like... he couldn't be without her.
The absence of her, he couldn't handle.
I sense...on that cemetery...
..he was feeling something was also watching him.
His eyes would go black.
I don't feel that he...
..even knew what was happening to him.
In his psych evaluation, Ed Gein said
he doesn't remember digging up bodies in graveyards
or killing Bernice Worden and Mary Hogan,
as if he were in a daze.
So, what caused him to commit such atrocities?
Did the spirit of Ed's mother
control him as much in death as in life?
Did he hear Augusta's voice instructing him
to make a woman suit out of corpses?
Did Ed create that suit to become his mother?
Finally, did the abuse he suffered as a child make him hate women?
I do have the GeoPort set up here
because I had so much action on it at the farm.
I was wondering if you'd wanna this time participate with me.
Absolutely. Needless to say, you've tapped into the energy
of Ed, Augusta, numerous times since we've been together.
And like you said,
even just speaking about them in this community, they're here. Hm.
So, I feel like, with the GeoPort right now,
we could try to get some more answers,
see what we get, try to connect some dots.
Mm-hm. Yeah, let's do it.
All right.
Ed, did you take some of the body parts and bury them on your land?
Mound. The mound! Mound.
You had mentioned right at the beginning of the investigation
on the farm that you thought there were more bodies on the land.
Was there like a mound or something?
I keep... I keep seeing it,
but I keep feeling there are bodies buried there.
There's bodies buried there.
This is so crazy it. I don't know, now I'm getting chills.
I don't know, but something drove him to use those bodies
and put them back into the earth.
Ed, are there more bodies buried on the farm that weren't discovered?
Possessed? Did you hear that? I did. It sounded like "possessed". Yeah.
Who was possessed? (SOUND ECHOES)
Ed.
It says "possessed".
We say, who is possessed? "Ed".
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
I swear it just said, "Put on the suit."
Really? That's what I heard.
Are you talking about what you used to put on, Ed?
Wearing other people's skin?
Oh, my God!
I got chills like...
When you try to enter the mind of Ed Gein, it's a terrifying place.
It's very terrifying.
Because this is such a pivotal moment in the investigation,
I wanted to listen to see what we had captured, one more time.
I've got a lot of things queued up here on my laptop
that I wanna play you from the remote viewing session.
The GeoPort, a lot of different voices will come through it
and sometimes spirits will actually step over each other,
so when you go back and really listen,
you'll hear things that we couldn't hear at the time. Right.
So, I wanna go ahead and play you some of these.
(SOUND ECHOES)
Oh, my God! I hear...
"Put on the suit".
That was so clear. And of course,
we know Ed Gein had a skin suit that he would put on.
It's a female voice, as if Augusta's saying,
"Ed, put on the suit". Put on the suit.
Everything that he was doing... was to get his mother's love.
He's looked at as a monster.
Is that the lack of empathy of a psychopath,
or is there something greater at work?
He was influenced, but had no idea he was influenced.
Hearing the words, "put on the suit."
I mean, this kind of evidence is unheard of.
Ed literally wanted the female suit so he could become his mother.
I mean, it's just sick.
This investigation just keeps getting creepier.
I was just contacted by a local Plainfield resident
who claims he purchased an item at auction
that he believes belonged to Ed Gein
and will blow our minds. He's never shown anyone this object before.
I'm really excited to head to Tom's house.
He's a local resident here and I got a tip that he has
some pretty interesting artifacts of high interest to this case.
So we're gonna head there right now. I'm really looking forward to seeing
if you can kind of tap into the items he has
and see if you can connect any dots. I can do what's called psychometry.
So, I can hold an object and sense the memory attached to the object
or the emotions attached to the object.
Well, this is my house.
A lot of antiques here, huh? Yeah.
Cindy, Tom has some very interesting artifacts that he has set out here,
and I would just like you to see if you can sense anything.
(SIGHS)
Skinning. Skinning.
It's something involved in that process.
You couldn't have been more accurate.
Here are two knives that Tom believes belonged to Ed Gein.
Do you think that these items were used by Ed Gein?
It feels like there's memory attached to it.
And I feel like there's some... something was feeling...
like there would've been evil brought into the house
or something dark.
So, Tom, let me ask you how did you acquire these items?
What's the story behind these? There was an auction that came up,
my wife and I started bidding on. We're antique collectors.
so they're antiques and they've got history,
so it's nice to have 'em. The items that you got from the auction,
you get 'em back to the house here and what happens next?
Well, I put 'em in the garage
and we didn't have any problems for a few weeks,
and then, suddenly, I started seeing a shadow, a tall skinny shadow
going from the garage door, past the TV and the fireplace
and outside of the house.
But then the birds started getting sick and dying, two a day.
The rest of my animals died after that.
My ma died. Then my dad died on Father's Day,
and then my wife died on the following Christmas.
Do you think these items are responsible
for all the tragic deaths in your family?
Most definitely.
Well, Tom, Cindy's definitely picking up on a presence
and picking up on a lot of information that you confirmed.
I think we need to start investigating right away,
if that's OK with you. That'd be great. OK.
Our goal's to figure out
if these objects that belonged to Ed Gein are cursed as well.
I got Jaime now with the SLS system set up.
I've got the Mel Meter, I got the REM pod,
motion detector set up there. Two K2 meters.
I think we should just start.
Ed Gein, are you present with us?
Did you use these objects?
(Something's moving in the kitchen area.)
Dude!
Ed, is that you?
(Let's kinda peek from the doorway here.)
Ed, are these your personal items?
(SIGHS) What the hell?!
(My God!)
(BEEPING) It's like right in front of the sensor.
Mel Meter's going off, we're picking up motion detection,
and something is near the Mel Meter on this side of the room.
Where is at, Jaime? Is it on this side? Yes.
Ed...I'm gonna take your item here,
I'm gonna set it on this chair.
Now, if that's yours,
let us know.
If that's truly yours, can you come stand by here?
I feel a male...presence.
Dude, Cindy, I'm not trying to freak you out,
the fur on your coat just went down a little bit here.
I don't think a draft did that. It just kind of went like this.
Did you feel anything? No, I can just feel this presence near.
I can feel it coming. There's a man like breathing down my neck.
I swear to God.
I feel like there's a man breathing.
Are you serious?
Oh, my God!
Right now?
The activity is second to none here.
I mean...every meter, the SLS,
we ask it to come to the knife if it's Gein. "If this is you,
come to your weapon." I'm just freaked out even more
because we were shown this last night. I know.
Everything you were saying last night
is all coming together right here. Yeah.
He's with us everywhere we go. He's everywhere.
Last night, we heard a voice say, "Put on the suit."
Today, Cindy confirms that this was the knife
that Ed Gein used to make that suit.
It's almost as if Gein is following us all over town.
And he definitely wants his knife back.
Tom, you have one of the most active homes
I have ever investigated in my life, first and foremost,
but I don't need to tell you that.
I usually keep these out in the shed because, you know,
after the animals started dying and people getting sick,
you know, seeing the shadow running back and forth,
I decided, "Out in the shed. You can go outside."
Would you consider letting us borrow this item
to take it to the farm for our final investigation? Yeah.
I think I'll be OK with that. OK. We'll definitely return it,
cos I have no plans on adding this to my collection.
And I'm not taking it with me anywhere.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
At this point, I'd like to go back
to the Waushara County Historical Society
and really kind of dig into the archives,
speak to somebody about the history of the property.
What happened on this land?
So, Lori, of course you know we're here conducting an investigation
about the Ed Gein farm.
And Cindy immediately upon stepping up on that land
starting having a lot of visuals.
She was really picking up on
spiritual energy coming from the land itself.
And she thinks it goes back before the Geins moved there.
I felt immediately a Native American history
attached to the land. So I knew that there was something connected.
And then I kept seeing...
I call them night walkers.
There's something about these spirits
connected to the Native American culture
that walk ton he land at night.
What type of history can you tell us about Ed Gein's property
far before the Geins actually purchased the acreage?
The Black Hawk War of 1832
was in this area between several different tribes
and the US military.
It was a very tragic war and it's estimated
that between 400 and 600 Native Americans were killed.
And when Native Americans were buried,
they were always buried in... mounds..
..throughout the whole state.
The battle happened right around where Ed Gein's farm stands today.
And now the Ho-Chunk tribe
is the largest... in the Wisconsin area.
Lori, with all this information and learning about this battle,
do you think they could have left some type of residue on the land?
Or something causing the paranormal activity taking place today?
Yes, definitely.
All Waushara County has a lot of residue from the battles.
Do you think Plainfield, Wisconsin, is haunted?
Yes...totally.
I suggest you talk to one of the Ho-Chunk elders,
they'll know a lot more of the land.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
So receiving that information was critical and absolutely amazing.
I would like to get the perspective from a local tribe,
maybe seek out an elder, get some information about their history,
and find out what could these spirits be.
Why is there so much unrest?
Cindy, right now we're about to meet with Brother Thundercloud,
who is an elder in the Ho-Chunk tribe in this area.
And he's going to tell us more about the land, their cultures,
and their beliefs to see if that can shed some light on this case
and even some of the visions you were having in this area.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
When God created Earth, God created the human beings.
There were also spirits that were created.
And these spirits are in everything that we see.
You know, this sand, this water,
the rocks, the trees, the leaves,
you know, they're all spiritual.
When we were walking on the land at Ed Gein's farm,
I walked on it and I knew I was standing on...sacred land.
I became aware of these spirits that looked like shadows.
And I kept hearing "night walkers".
Do you have anything similar to that in Ho-Chunk culture?
There are... what we'd call night spirits.
These night spirits are not... not all bad.
Our term for spirits is (SPEAKS IN TRIBAL TONGUE).
It's just plain spirit. They go about in order to protect us.
There are...good ones and there are...bad ones.
(SPEAKS IN TRIBAL TONGUE) Bad spirit.
I mean, Ed Gein, and his mother,
they brought a lot of darkness to that land,
so maybe we were dealing with the protective good night walkers
that were just trying to protect.
We do believe in good and evil spirits.
They do exist.
And do you believe those spirits are still on Earth here today?
Oh, yes, they're here.
Brother Thundercloud told us
that night walkers could be good and like soldiers on a the land,
or they could be evil. So what are we dealing with on the Gein farm?
Is it good...or evil?
Knowing this information can help us decipher
what's going on at the Gein farm. So we definitely need to go back
and figure out what the heck is going on?
Walking into the final investigation,
we know that Ed Gein's mom, Augusta, is part of this haunting.
And we know that Ed's here.
Ed Gein is everywhere in Plainfield,
but many questions remain.
Was Augusta influencing Ed to murder Bernice and Mary and rob the graves?
Are Ed's victims still here with us,
or have they peacefully crossed on to the other side?
We have no idea what's about to happen.
(CROWS CAW)
Right now, we're at the Ed Gein farm.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
This is the final night of investigation.
We are here for answers. We have two trigger objects,
the knife we believe Ed Gein used on his victims,
and also we have a Bible to see if Augusta's spirit
will respond to that specifically.
And what's more, this is a special night.
This is the anniversary tonight
when the police converged on the farm here...
..and found Bernice Worden's body
when Ed Gein was discovered and caught.
63 years ago tonight.
We're gonna do whatever it takes to find out what is going on.
I have the GeoPort set up, the REM pod and the Ovulus.
So, Cindy, what I would really like you to do tonight
is try to tap in as much as you can,
see if you can find out any answers about the land,
Augusta possibly influencing Ed,
and tell me what you're seeing and what you're sensing.
What are you seeing? I see him just killing these women...
..and then having dinner, like nothing happened.
Honestly, I'm sensing...
so much energy coming towards my chest.
Really?!
That's...insane.
(BEEPING) REM pod hit.
Just like at Tom Dyar's house.
Right now?
I feel his mother.
I feel her everywhere. (GHOSTLY WHISPERING)
All I can hear are screams.
I'm hearing, "The witch is back. The witch is back."
Turn this on. So you think Augusta's here?
Yeah. Turn it on.
I can... Augusta!
Augusta. Augusta, is that you?
Are you here?
Here. It just...
Ed.
Can you tell us what this object is?
What is this? Tell us.
A knife. Did it say knife? I heard it. It said "a knife".
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
I just felt like somebody running...
up towards my, like, spine.
And like slicing down... like down my spine.
Like you would be gutting something.
That's what he did to Bernice Worden and likely to Mary Hogan as well.
After Gein's arrest, he told a psychiatrist
about a childhood incident in which he watched his mother butcher a pig
and remembered feeling aroused.
(GRUNTING)
(GRUNTS) In his mind, the act of dismemberment
may have been associated with pleasure ever since. (GRUNTS)
(GRUNTS)
(PANTS)
(SIGHS)
Did that childhood memory contribute...
..to Ed Gein's gruesome hobby?
It's back on the knife again? It's trying to touch...
How is this happening? This knife?
It's exactly what was happening at Tom's house.
I've never experienced anything like this ever.
That just said "demonic" loud and clear. 100%.
What is demonic? (SOUND ECHOES)
Tell us.
Be gone.
What is demonic?
That sounded like...I heard Satan.
This is really...bad.
Ed, we wanna hear from you.
Why did you hurt those women?
He said Augusta. Ed, did your mother
influence you to do these horrific things?
Learn your lesson, boy!
(GRUNTS)
Yes. Are you feeling anything right now?
Is it right on my back? Yes.
Ed, are you standing next to Cindy right now?
I just saw him. I just saw an image of him charge towards me
and go for my neck. Just go... go for my neck, choking me!
That's exactly what it was doing on the SLS camera. Choking me!
Are you trying to hurt Cindy the way you hurt those women?
I feel really bad.
I...I feel really bad.
I seriously can... All I can hear are screams.
(SCREAMING)
(SOUND ECHOES)
(GASPS)
That was a woman crying!
That's exactly what you described.
You think you were seeing one of Ed's victims? Yes!
(SOUND ECHOES) I just keep hearing, like,
"Their souls are crying. Their souls are crying. Their souls are crying."
Like... Like they're trapped here.
(SOUND ECHOES)
I hear them. (SOUND ECHOES)
What is that? Do you hear that woman?!
Are you one of the victims of Ed Gein?
Mary. That was one of Ed's victims. Oh, my God!
Mary Hogan.
Three years before killing Bernice,
Ed fatally shot Mary Hogan at her tavern,
then beheaded and butchered her just yards from where we are now.
Could her spirit still be trapped here today?
Mary, are you present?
Something is on the Bible?
(SOUND ECHOES)
Augusta, is that you?
Going for the Bible? That's not Augusta.
It's one of the women.
And it said Mary.
Mary, are you present?
This is crazy!
It's real. It's real. It's real.
What's real? Could this be Mary?
Ed? Augusta? or all three?
The activity is off the charts!
(SCREAMING)
I hate this place so much.
I feel like we're in hell. It's bad. I didn't know it was cold.
I'm telling you, if we stay on this land much longer,
it's really gonna start to affect us.
Your mind will be twisted if you stay on this land much longer.
This is not a place to spend a lot of time. This is not safe. No.
We can't take that risk.
I know we're dealing with something really dark.
You can be tricked and think
you're dealing with your loved ones on this land,
but it's definitely not your loved ones. You see what I'm saying? I do.
What you're describing is evil. It's evil.
It's...it's not good. If you're seeing that and this is happening,
I don't know if we should continue. I wanna get the hell out of here.
All right, we're done, for our safety. Yeah.
This is not good. Let's go. Let get out of here.
Everybody else, wrap it up.
We caught anomalies again reaching for the knife.
Words like demonic, Satan... coming out of the GeoPort.
I'm hearing, "The witch is back". (WAILING)
We heard wailing and crying.
Cindy was seeing Gein's victims.
And, of course, this is the anniversary of when Gein was caught.
It is not safe for us to be here any more.
All of us are getting out of here now.
The final investigation at the farm was super intense.
We caught evidence that, honestly,
is probably some of the best of my career.
(CICADAS CHIRRUP)
I really feel more affected by this case
than any case I have ever worked on in my career.
Throughout our investigation, we sought out answers
to the biggest questions and received compelling evidence.
Ed Gein, are you present with us?
Dude!
Was this the work of a man who wanted to become his mother,
wanting the power, hating women,
wanting to BE a woman?
Did Ed create a suit from women's skin to become his mother?
Did Ed's mother dominate him as much in death as in life?
Are Ed's victims trapped on the Gein farm
where he committed horrific atrocities?
Gein was a sick and disturbed man.
But what drove him to commit such heinous acts?
Was it strictly mental illness?
I think all of these things together make the haunting.
And especially if a lot of tragedy has occurred on the land,
that can create a haunting all by itself.
It created, essentially, an evil, an evil that existed there.
And that evil started not with Ed, but with his monster of a mother.
The Geins purchase the property,
Augusta actually becomes more angry, more hateful.
And then we have somebody who is severely abused and mentally ill.
There are so many different parts of this case.
It's like a giant pot of soup.
Argh! The effect that Ed had on the community sadly lingered on
way beyond his initial arrest.
(HUBBUB)
There was no closure for the longest time,
because he was found mentally insane and not competent to stand trial.
And when he was finally declared competent to stand trial,
he was convicted of first-degree murder for one of his two victims.
People around the world have actually become fascinated
with the crimes of Ed Gein
and glorified what he did to his victims.
It literally changed the face of the horror genre forever.
Mrs Bates. He inspired Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho.
Characters like Leatherface from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
He was Buffalo Bill from The Silence Of The Lambs.
So many movies were made about him because they're so extreme,
they're so heinous. (SCREAMS)
Look at this case. Look at Ed Gein literally committing homicide,
Mutilating corpses, taking their skin and body parts,
and putting it on his own body. Wearing a dead skin mask.
Evil is very real. Like, the movie Psycho got it right.
That's exactly it.
I'm hearing it too. I hear it too. I was hearing it to.
Weird. I thought that was maybe one of your chairs.
Shall we cut for a second? It's strange, because the tapping to me
sounded like it was coming from the table.
It was like... That's what I thought too, but nobody was tapping.
I thought maybe one of you was... No. No.
Strange. Really strange. I don't see a source.
It's pretty clear that this case
is still trying to affect us in some kind of way.
I was hearing it as well. Were you hearing it? Yeah. Yeah.
In all honesty, I'm really worried about
what's gonna happen after we leave.
Because... it seems to be a recurring theme
that once you encounter this energy, it doesn't really leave you. Right.
Evil exists. Evil is very real.
Plainfield is definitely haunted.
I believe Ed, Augusta, and possibly Ed's victim, Mary,
are still present in this community.
Plainfield, Wisconsin, will always be known
for the heinous crimes of Ed Gein.
Before we leave town, Cindy and I wanna make one last stop
to the Plainfield Cemetery and pay our respects to Ed's victims.
Bernice Worden is buried here, while Ed's other victim, Mary Hogan,
is buried at an undisclosed location.
Bernice, we're terribly sorry about what took place 63 years ago.
We honour your memory...and we hope to keep your memory alive.
Although the town itself has tried to move on,
it's clear that the spirit of both Augusta and Ed Gein still lurk here
haunting and preying on the community.
Will their spirits ever be at rest,
or will they wander through Plainfield
searching for each other until they are reunited?
Will Plainfield, Wisconsin, ever be at peace?
