Invisible Monsters: Serial Killers in America
Channel: eReality (Openview 108)
TX Time: 21h15
Genre: True Crime, Documentary Series
Delve into the stories and circumstances that shaped our collective concept of the modern-day serial killer with the three-episode miniseries Invisible Monsters: Serial Killers in America.
The series explores what it is like to be one of the few people ever to escape from the clutches of a serial predator.
The series examines the intersecting paths of five of America's most notorious killers who all operated during the same period, across two decades.
Over six hours, the show weaves the stories of Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, Jeffrey Dahmer, The Green River Killer and BTK together into a single narrative exploring the perfect storm of what was happening in culture, communications, law enforcement, media, forensics and technology that allowed them to proliferate and evade capture.
Names that still strike fear into the hearts of many, these seemingly normal men developed disturbingly intimate and hands-on approaches to murder that were at odds with their soft-spoken public existence.
Most of our public understanding of the modern serial killer comes from the 20 years that all five men were active.
We still struggle to reconcile the uncomfortable dichotomy of monsters hiding in plain sight.
The stories of these killers and their victims will be told by those closest to them, including exclusive interviews with survivors, investigators, forensic psychologists, prosecutors and victims' family members.
