Netflix has debuted its first trailer for Ryan Murphy‘s latest project, DAHMER – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story which will premiere Wednesday, September 21.
The dark limited drama series set between 1978 and 1991 focuses on Jeffrey Dahmer, the notorious serial killer who took the lives of 17 young men and boys, many of whom were people of color. The series also looks at the communities impacted by systemic racism and institutional failures of the police that allowed the serial killer to continue his murderous spree in plain sight for more than a decade.
