| 0:13.6 | What's up, everybody? |
| 0:14.4 | Welcome back to another episode of Lights Out. |
| 0:18.7 | I'm your host Josh. |
| 0:19.7 | And I'm your host Austin. And I'm the producer Daniel and today we just had to because I've been seeing a lot of people talking about Ed Gein monster on Netflix and there's a lot of people I feel like don't really understand the full accurate story of Ed Gein. |
