The whole process would have been simple. She had the money now, her moment of madness was over. She needed to just stop somewhere for the night, clear her head and set off in the morning. But instead, Marion Crane took that fateful shower and the rest as they say is history. Cinematic history.

Alfred Hitchcock was the hottest property in tinsel town after having consistently stormed the box-office with big budget hit after hit. That was until the late fifties when he committed to make the world’s greatest psychological horror movie, a ‘chiller’. No elaborate sets, no large production, no Technicolor and with just a TV show crew. What they made would not only be one of the ‘master of suspense’s’ greatest movies but it would change cinematic history forever. This book charts the history of these dynamic movies starting with the real life grisly crimes that inspired the book by Robert Bloch. We will then look at the original movie, explore the sequels and how Norman Bates has returned for the 21st Century.
