WEIRD TRIPS #2
First printing (1978)
Ed Gein, America's first and most notorious cannibal murderer, is the subject of a startling cover story by Dave Schreiner and an incredibly ghoulish (or is that goulash?) cover by William Stout. Publisher Kitchen Sink Press's office was a short distance from Plainfield WI where Gein dug up corpses, made lampshades out of skin and dressed his last victim like a deer. Many times out-of-state visitors to KSP would ask for directions to Plainfield, to see firsthand the quiet midwest town whose horror transfixed the nation in 1957, inspired films from Psycho and Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
