Ed kills his brother

The first offer of Ed season appears in a battle with Brother Henry Jin (Hudson OzAnd hitting it in the head. Despite the death of Henry in 1944, it was an accident, Ed did further to cover up and make him seem to be his brother killed in the wake of the brush fire.

Henry’s official cause of death was suffocation that leads to heart failure. He had bruises on his head, but no autopsy was carried out and officials did not think about playing until Ed was arrested in 1957.

Ed, who found the body of his brother at the time, did not admit that he was involved in the death of Henry – while Monster made the claim that he was definitely wrong.

The presence of Adlin and Watercins

Throughout the season, Ed participated with Al -Jar Adilin and Watkins (Susanna SonEven the couple was involved. They have suffered from climbing and landing with Watskins move to New York before returning to Wisconsin, but in the end they did not stay with ED. Watskins was the person who made Ed to a serious theft and knew about his deadly tendencies, which she publicly walked in the show once he was arrested.

The real Watskins explained in an interview at a time when public claims for the alleged romance were for two wrong decades. She said they did not know each other until 1954 when Ed had already participated in his related behavior. Watskins also claimed that they were only in contact with a period of seven months, but she never visited his home or knew crimes.

Brennan Tidom told the show that the real Watskins was used As a jumping point.

He added: “(What) we know is that she initially went out talking about how they were an element, and they would get married.” “Then I came out like,” no, I made all of that. “

Honnam and the rest of the book’s book room told Tudum that they are divided whether Watercins are really present in the context of the show or whether this is a copy of Ed’s imagination aimed at leading his story on the screen.

Other different crimes

(Ed also admitted to removing multiple graves and tastes a strange newspaper from the bodies.)

Netflix Monster Explore the possible crimes More by showing a painful children’s party that ended in taking the children to his home from his parents. Then the usual children’s glycille kill Evelyn (Edison Ray), Which deviated more into a fictional area although Ray played a real woman whose death was not resolved as Evelyn Hartley. There were also fishermen Victor Travis and Raymond Burgis that were lost at the same time.

His interest in Els Koch

He claims that many of Ed’s interests in mixing his victims came from exposure to survival stories of Holocaust. The Netflix series specifically indicated to Ilse Koch A real criminal of the Holocaust war – as an inspiration of Ed. While both Koch and ED were bad to create furniture from the human body, there were no concrete documents that have proven that they were pulled from Koch crimes.

Watkins, who presented ED to the Holocaust graphic images, was supposed to be the common thread between them, which was in the exhibition just a way to connect specific plot lines.

The use of the saw

Promotional footage and even a scene in the exhibition connected to Ed with a saw. The real criminal called his first victim, and he was cut off-but without using a saw. The addition was a sign because Ed inspired the murderer in Texas massacre in the saw.

While staying at a psychological institution, Ed was able to reach pork radio. but Monster Several fantasies of Ed appeared in communicating with a cottage and crystin Georgessen (Alana Darby), Who was one of the first people to undergo sex resetting in the United States.

There was no evidence that ED spoke with Koch or Jorgensen. Murphy and Brennan dismantled pork radio “a way to circumvent”, telling Tedom, “(We thought,) This is an ideal way to photograph his relationships with all these women and these talks are the catalyst that led to his awareness of those who were and what he did, and what had an influence (he).”
