Netflix has renewed its serial killer focused Monster for two more seasons, and ordered a second installment of The Watcher. Following the huge success of Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, Netflix has ordered two further editions of the series with showrunner Ryan Murphy returning to the helm.
Dahmer – which starred Evan Peters as the notorious American serial killer – proved a huge hit, with viewers watching more than 850m hours within its first 28 days on the platform. It became Netflix’s second most popular English TV season behind Stranger Things.
The show will become an anthology series, akin to Murphy’s American Horror Story and American Crime Story, with each series focusing on “stories of other monstrous figures who have impacted society,” according to Netflix. It is yet to be confirmed which infamous killers be the focus of the upcoming seasons.
