My name is J.W. Ocker. For more than a decade, I have sought out odd sites and artifacts. I believe that within a tank or two of gas of any point in the country are oddities worth trekking to on a Saturday afternoon. And I have the stories as proof.

Episode 33: Visiting the Sites of the Martha Stewart of Serial Killers
My fascination with serial killers comes with a heaping load of shame, except for in one instance: Ed Gein. That's because without Gein, we might not have Norman Bates. Or Leatherface. Or Buffalo Bill. Or the Firefly family. So my shame load was only a mild one as I visited sites related to him in his hometown of Plainfield, Wisconsin. With my wife and two kids.
See photos from our visit to Plainfield here.
Hardware Store Address: 110 S. Main St., Plainfield, WI.
Plainfield Cemetery Address: 6590 5th Ave, Plainfield, WI.
Property Address: Archer Avenue and Second Avenue.
