Anyone recommend a true crime / serial killer series?

Binged Gone Girls last night. Recently watched the Brady/Hindlay one that's reappeared on Netflix. Loved Mindhunter.

In fact, loved The Fall, The Killing and The Bridge, so I guess it doesn't need to be true crime.

Any recommendations? Thanks!

Disney plus have got some really good true crime programmes.
You can also use the search engine on the streaming platform.
I recently really enjoyed Giri/ Haji - BBC iplayer and The Bureau ( French version which is much better than the US one) on Netflix.Also The Staircase is worth a watch. I think it’s Netflix.
i also really enjoyed the true crime podcast ‘Cork’.

If you like podcasts, The Crossbow Killer is very good (and rather disturbing)

Have you watched Criminal UK on Netflix?

Trapped is really good (if you’re ok with subtitles)

Oh, I second this, it's very good. Also Criminal France (or Germany, I forget) but it's a European country.
Also, "Unbelievable" on netflix. Excellent.

I've watched them all, they were brilliant. The UK one had such a good cast though!

West Cork? About the murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier, that was really good. There's also a three part documentary on Netflix about it, also worth watching, Sophie: A Murder in West Cork.

Thank you! I've settled on The Chestnut Man (Danish, subtitled) but now have a great list to work though.

Yes that’s it 👍

Discovery+ has a lot of true crime content and it’s very reasonable i think £3.99 a month I like ‘faking it ‘ and the faking it specials they do concentrating on very famous cases
