Recently, Ruthie and Erin were invited by the Carl-Schurz-Haus German American Institute in Freiburg, Germany to exhibit their work. They sit down with host Bianca Martin to share how our sister city is reacting to the recent presidential election. Wanna talk to us about an episode?

When hardware store owner Bernice Worden disappeared from her store on the morning of November 16, 1957, sheriff's deputies traced the last sale made that morning to fifty-one-year-old recluse and occasional handyman Ed Gein. During a cursory search of the Gein property, investigators quickly located Worden's decapitated and mutilated body in a shed on Gein's property, but that was only one of the many horrors that awaited them on the farmstead. Inside the house, deputies found one of the most shocking and horrifying scenes ever documented in the history of American crime, revealing that the mild-mannered handyman locals had always believed harmless, was in fact a profoundly psychotic killer.Thank you to the magnificent Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research!ReferencesAssociated Press. 1968.

Not since Jack the Ripper or H.H. Holmes had a criminal so thoroughly shocked and captivated the public imagination; yet Gein's crimes went far beyond what anyone imagined a person could be capable of. Indeed, he has served as the basis for some of Hollywood's most iconic horror films including Psycho, Silence of the Lambs, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. And, while he is only known to have killed two people during his active period, the list of crimes he is suspected of having committed is long and likely to remain a source of speculation for a long time to come.Thank you to the magical Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research!ReferencesAssociated Press. 1968.
