Initial posters for Netflix's Monster: The Ed Gein Story featuring Charlie Hunnam

      Netflix has released three first-look posters for the third installment of Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan’s Monster anthology series, titled Monster: The Ed Gein Story. These posters showcase Charlie Hunnam as the infamous killer, emphasizing the impact of Gein's narrative on iconic horror films such as Psycho, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and Silence of the Lambs. Take a look here…

      Serial killer. Grave robber. Psycho. In the desolate fields of 1950s rural Wisconsin, a friendly and mild-mannered recluse named Eddie Gein lived quietly on a deteriorating farm, concealing a house of horrors so horrifying it would redefine the American nightmare. Fueled by isolation, psychosis, and an overwhelming obsession with his mother, Gein's grotesque actions gave rise to a new breed of monster that would haunt Hollywood for years. From Psycho to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre to The Silence of the Lambs, Gein’s grim legacy inspired fictional monsters created in his likeness and sparked a cultural fascination with criminal deviance. Ed Gein didn’t merely shape a genre — he became the prototype for contemporary horror.

      Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan’s innovative anthology series returns with its third and most chilling installment yet. Monster: The Ed Gein Story explores how an ordinary man from Plainfield, Wisconsin became the most notorious ghoul in history. He unveiled the most terrifying truth of all — that monsters are not born; they are made... by us.

      The cast features Charlie Hunnam as Ed Gein, Suzanna Son as Adeline Watkins, Tom Hollander as Alfred Hitchcock, Laurie Metcalf as Augusta Gein, Vicky Krieps as Ilse Koch, Olivia Williams as Alma Reville, Joey Pollari as Anthony Perkins, Tyler Jacob Moore as Sheriff Schley, Charlie Hall as Deputy Worden, Will Brill as Tobe Hooper, Mimi Kennedy as Dr. Mildred Newman, Robin Weigert as Enid Watkins, and Lesley Manville as Bernice Worden.

      Monster: The Ed Gein Story premieres on Netflix on October 3rd.
