Edgar Corbin

Edgar Theodore "Ed" Corbin (August 17, 1966 - July 16, 2004) was an American serial killer.

Corbin stayed at the Gilman Hotel, in hiding, while it was closed to the general public. According to police records, after 2 nights there, Corbin turned himself in at the local precinct, admitting to his crimes, and giving up his freedom to the shock of authorities after a month long chase.

Corbin said in his statement that he had a change of heart while staying at the GIlman, had "seen the true face of innocence" and that his stay there was directly responsible for his confession. He was convicted of multiple homicides, and stayed in the state penitentiary until his death in 2004.

The Gilman Legacy Foundation notably complained after a "ghost story" special on the Science Fiction Network when it made reference to Corbin being "a guest" at the hotel saying that it was irresponsible of the channel to suggest that the Gilman hotel had allowed him to stay in an official capacity.
