‘Monster’: After Dahmer, these will be the leading murderers of the second season of Ryan Murphy’s series for Netflix

We will follow one of the most notorious cases of the late 90s: the Menéndez brothers and their parricide in Beverly Hills

    Ryan Murphy hooked Netflix audiences last year with his true-crime miniseries about the ghoulish serial killer, Jeffrey Dahmer.. In ‘Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story’, we followed almost firsthand the atrocities committed by the murderer, brilliantly played by Evan Peters.

    Now, after the success achieved, the time has come to move on with new stories to tell. What began as a miniseries was skillfully transformed into an anthology series. Therefore, shortly after its premiere, the announcement came that two more seasons would be produced.

    In the second batch of the series we will follow one of the most notorious cases of the end of the last century: that of the menendez brothers, who murdered his parents in 1989, in their mansion in Beverly Hills, California.

    Although the specific details of the new season are still unknown, it is known that Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan will be in charge of it. Your name will follow the original line and will be: ‘Monsters: The Story of Lyle and Erik Menendez’.

    The case of the Menéndez Brothers has once again returned to the collective imagination thanks to platforms such as TikTokin which numerous users have shown their support for both men.

    In the season we can expect a structure similar to that of its previous premiere: a total immersion in the events that occurred, and a subsequent breakdown of the trial faced by those responsible.

    This case was highly publicized in the 1990s. The brothers’ defense argued that the murders had been the result of years of sexual abuse by José, the father of the young people. However, the jury ended up not considering this as the main motive and considered that the events had been perpetrated to inherit the considerable fortune that the couple had amassed.

    Ryan Murphy sets out to take a step-by-step look at this mystery and perhaps shed some light on what that night in the late ’80s was like. What really happened? What happen after?

    Due to the fame of this case, his story has been featured on other television shows before. Murphy himself included it in his series ‘American Crime Story: The People vs. O.J. Simpson’since both trials took place in a close period of time.
