The home burnt down in about 1958 and the property has been split and sold but the house was at this corner.  The precise location needs to be added but there should be no trespassing signs all over the property.

Description


Ed Gein

Edward Theodore "Ed" Gein (pron.: /ˈɡn/; August 27, 1906 – July 26, 1984) was an American murderer and body snatcher. His crimes, committed around his hometown of Plainfield, Wisconsin, gathered widespread notoriety after authorities discovered Gein had exhumed corpses from local graveyards and fashioned trophies and keepsakes from their bones and skin. After police found body parts in his house in 1957, Gein confessed to killing two women—tavern owner Mary Hogan in 1954, and a Plainfield hardware store owner, Bernice Worden, in 1957.
