Hi, everyone. You're about to hear a special primer episode of my new podcast, Murder Made Fiction.

If you listen to this week's Texas Chainsaw Massacre episode, you know that former horror

queer's guest Jen Adams and I have begun a new true crime podcast that looks at fictionalized

adaptations of real events. We're talking Jeffrey Dahmer, Ed Gein, Jim Jones, Ted Bundy, and more.

And we're looking at movies such as My Friend Dahmer, The Silence of the Lambs,

The Sacrament, and House of a Thousand Corpses.

Here's a taste of what you can expect, and if you like it,

please seek out Bloody FM's

Murder Made Fiction on your podcatcher of choice.

Without further ado, here's your primer on Ed Gein.

Music Welcome to murder made fiction, a podcast where we look at horror films and the true crimes that inspired them.

I'm Jen.

And I'm Joe. And today we are discussing

a new killer and some new crimes, one of the OGs and a man who's inspired some of the most

iconic horror films of all time. Joe, tell me what do you know about Egg Gein? Okay. So the weirdest thing is that I feel like I only know things based on the text that we're going to be discussing this month.

So I think he might be a cannibal. I believe he's from down south.

And I know that he had some very extreme mommy issues.

Interesting. Okay, yes.

So you are on track with some of those things and I'm curious to hear.

Okay, now also, you are coming to us from Toronto.

So when you say down south, whereabouts are you thinking?

Okay.
