Additional Information Pictured here following his arrest in 1957, the prolific serial killer Ed Gein remains one of the most prominent criminals of the twentieth century. He sparked national controversy for his horrific crimes, which included murder and grave robbing. Authorities discovered numerous items made from human remains during a search of the one hundred fifty-five-acre farm he had inherited after the death of his father in 1940. Gein and his brother Henry had cared for their deeply religious mother, Augusta, until Henry's mysterious death in 1944 following a brush fire on the property. Shortly after Henry's death, Augusta suffered a paralyzing stroke, and Gein continued to live in the family home. When she died in 1945, he boarded up her rooms to preserve them, while the rest of the house fell into disarray. In 1957, the disappearance of local hardware store owner Bernice Worden led investigators to question Gein. His name was the last to appear in the store ledger, and he was arrested by authorities the same day. A search of the farm uncovered evidence of multiple crimes, shocking the nation. This photograph became a sensational symbol of Gein's legacy and the public shock that followed. Captured during a time of postwar optimism and societal progress, it remains a chilling and authentic piece of true crime history.
