Marion Crane: Wouldn't it be better if you put her.

Marion: Wouldn't it be better if you put her. If you love someone, you don't do that to them - even if you hate them. Who'd look after her? She'd be alone up there. Norman: A son is a poor substitute for a lover. Anyway, it was just too great a loss for her. I guess it's nothing to talk about while you're eating. And when he died too, it was just too great a shock for her. Anyway, a few years ago, Mother met this man, and he talked her into building this motel. She didn't have to go to work or anything like that. I was only five and it must have been quite a strain for her. She had to raise me all by herself after my father died. Norman: Sometimes - when she talks to me like that - I feel I'd like to go up there, and curse her, and-and-and leave her forever! Or at least defy her! But I know I can't. Marion: You know, if anyone ever talked to me the way I heard - the way she spoke to you.

In 2016 a fourth Psycho book titled Robert Bloch's Psycho: Sanitarium was released and written by Chet Williamson.Vince Vaughn portrays Norman in the 1998 shot-for-shot remake of Psycho.Instead, Norman appears like he did in the novel: a middle-aged, overweight, balding man. Although a colorized adaptation of the Hitchcock film, Norman did not look like Anthony Perkins due to the actor refusing his likeness to be used. A three-part comic adaptation of Psycho was released in 1992.This along with Psycho IV would be the final time he portrayed the character. In 1990 (the same year Psycho IV: The Beginning was released) Perkins appeared as Norman in a commercial for Oatmeal Crisp & Oatmeal Raisin Crisp cereal.Of note, the story had Bates die whilst incarcerated, and the new protagonist West inherits the motel and house. The pilot was poorly received and any plans for syndication were abandoned. It was filmed in black and white in keeping with the style of the original film.
