Through the text, but obviously through the artwork, there are times when you see Gein's vulnerability, but then almost in the same breath, you are reminded of just what he had done.

If this was a Stephen King novella, sure, I guess it does the trick (even if it does rely on some hoary and problematic tropes as I will get to in a second).Since there are pictures some of the more graphic things Eddie did with the bodies he exhumed are there on the page, not just described. That said, there is one scene that isn’t a confirmed fact: Ed’s childhood sexual assault at the hands of older boys, which was only ever a rumour, though he seemed to have been bullied throughout his life which could have fed into other behaviours.

Tra le pagine non solo siamo assistiamo ai suoi crimini da pelle d’oca, ma riflettiamo anche sui motivi che hanno spinto una mente umana a rovinarsi in questo modo: la nascita in una famiglia disfunzionale, il rapporto malato con la madre fanatica e dispotica, il bullismo subito da parte dei compagni.He shows us Gein wearing the women’s skins very briefly, but his attention to detail makes it a terrifying few panels.
