Netflix Releases Teaser Trailer for Ed Gein Series

Netflix is set to release the third season of Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan's acclaimed anthology series, "Monster: The Ed Gein Story," on October 3, 2025. The eight-episode series explores the life and crimes of Ed Gein, a reclusive Wisconsin farm boy whose grotesque acts in the 1950s—including grave robbing and murder—inspired iconic horror films like Psycho, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and The Silence of the Lambs. Charlie Hunnam stars as Gein, portraying a deeply human and unflinching view of the man behind the horrific acts, with Laurie Metcalf playing his domineering mother. The teaser trailer features a British-accented Alfred Hitchcock, played by Tom Hollander, framing Gein's story and its profound impact on the horror genre. The series aims to delve into whether monsters are born or made, offering a chilling and culturally significant exploration of Gein's psychology and legacy. Fans anticipate the season to be the darkest and most harrowing yet, continuing the series’ examination of notorious true-crime figures.
