The Collector: Gerlach, Gein and the crime after death.

What happens when murder isn’t the end of the crime?In this episode, we examine the psychology of collectors who refuse to let death be final. From Jonathan Gerlach to Ed Gein, we explore how obsession, control, and identity bleed past the moment of killing and into what comes after. This is not about shock value. It’s about possession, transformation, and the disturbing need to keep something of the dead.This episode dissects the mindset behind post-mortem crimes, the line between remembrance and domination, and why horror keeps returning to figures who collect what should never be taken.Listener discretion strongly advised.Assistance for Mount Moriah Cemetery:https://friendsofmountmoriahcemetery.org/support/Links:Apple:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/real-terror/id1730732199Spotify:https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/steve938/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/realterrorpod?igsh=MWE0aWo4YXMwZ2xsaQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr
