Netflix's chilling first 'Monster: The Ed Gein Story' trailer unveils Charlie Hunnam as the godfather of all serial killers

Charlie Hunnam in Monster season 3.

It's hard to look away from Netflix's first trailer for "Monster: The Ed Gein Story." The third installment of Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan‘s true crime anthology, which lands on Netflix on October 3, sees "Sons of Anarchy" lead Charlie Hunnam step into the skin-lined shoes of the infamous serial killer, and the trailer proves the streaming service wasn't exaggerating when it promised this'll be the most disturbing "Monster" chapter yet.

In the trailer, which you can check out below, we get a glimpse into a house of horrors so gruesome that it would redefine the American nightmare. Hunnam's Gein is unsettlingly calm and polite as he scouts for his next victim, undresses a corpse, and dances around in a suit of human flesh. It's a disturbing trailer, and given the long list of horrors on Gein's real-life rap sheet, the worst is yet to come.
