Well, if these men are Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan, you get the Netflix Monster Anthology series. But this season's Ed Gein story is the worst of all. Apparently, Ed Gein's crimes just weren't bad enough... so they had to make it even more disturbing with their own additions.
And you will be shocked how far they were willing to go...
