'Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story' creators return with 'Ed Gein'
Netflix released the third season of its true-crime series Monster, this time diving into the chilling story of Ed Gein, commonly known as the "Butcher of Plainfield."
Expect a deep look at his crimes, his troubled relationship with his mother, and the mysterious 1953 disappearance of teen Evelyn Hartley, played by Addison Rae.
Season 3 dives into the mind of a murderer
Charlie Hunnam takes on Gein, going through a dramatic transformation (he lost 13.61kg!) to capture the role.
Creators Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan say this season isn't just about true crime—it also explores why these stories fascinate us so much.
Previous seasons focused on infamous American criminals
Monster has already covered Jeffrey Dahmer and the Menendez brothers in earlier seasons.
All three seasons are streaming only on Netflix, which has confirmed a fourth season focusing on Lizzie Borden.
