"Discovered among his possessions were four noses, nine masks made of human skin, numerous decapitated heads, lampshades and bowls made of skin, lips being used as a pull on a windowshade, and a belt made from nipples. Gein later admitted to only two murders (including the deputy’s mother, who was found gutted like a deer in Gein’s shed) and said most of the items had come from late-night cemetery raids."

Augusta, who was a fanatical Lutheran, drummed into her boys the innate immorality of the world, the evil of drink and the belief that all women (herself excluded) were prostitutes and whores. According to Augusta, the only acceptable form of sex was for biological reproduction/procreation. She reserved time every afternoon to read to them from the Bible, usually selecting graphic verses from the Old Testament dealing with death, murder and divine retribution.
