What makes a murderer's mind tick?

Killer Psyche is a new weekly true crime podcast from Wondry that explores these type of questions

about crimes that killers and criminals commit.

Killer Psyche covers high-profile cases that have shocked the world and hosts Candacea-Long

uses her five decades of experience as a clinical psychiatric nurse and FBI criminal profiler

to dissect the motivations and behaviors of the most terrifying felons in history.

And you'll definitely want to listen to the recent episode where Candace examines the mind of Ed Gein,

the notorious murderer who inspired the movies, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre,

and Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho. You won't believe what gruesome details from those movies

were inspired by Gein's real-life atrocities. Candace dives deep into Gein's mind how his mental

illnesses led to his obsession with grave robbing and murder.

Listening to Killer Psyche will give you a whole new insight into the Twisted Mind of Gein,

Hollywood's favorite killer. You're about to hear a preview of Killer Psyche.

Norman was slightly odd, but he looked like a shy normal guy.
