The real-life family behind Netflix’s The Watcher has no desire to be voyeurs of their own trauma.

The Broaddus family—whose lives were turned upside down by a series of creepy letters they received after moving into their Westfield, N.J. home in 2014—have their story dramatized in the new Ryan Murphy series starring Bobby Cannavale and Naomi Watts

But while it’s a smash hit for the streamer, it’s one the Broadduses won’t be binging. 

“We reached out to the Broaddus family,” Good Morning America‘s Eva Pilgrim said during a segment on ABC7 New York Oct. 18. “They declined to comment, but they do still live here in the Westfield area. And we’ve been told they have no plans to watch the show; the trailer was traumatizing enough.”
