More about General Hospital Nicholas' Netflix series

The teaser for the highly-anticipated season two of the anthology series from Ryan Murphy, Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story, gives a downright chilling peek inside the notorious 1989 murders at the hands of Lyle and Erik Menendez.

Following the real-life case of the brutal killings of their parents, José and Kitty Menendez, inside their Beverly Hills mansion, this series will stream on Netflix starting September 19, 2024.

The teaser starts with a perfect snapshot of the family: parents smiling, apparently unsuspecting, while the sons stand behind them, serious and disturbed. The teasers launch into rapid tension, culminating in gunshots and then an image of the covered-in-blood brothers. It's here that the darker secrets of the family begin to emerge, hinting that the motives behind the murders are multi-layered and complex.

In real life, the prosecution argued that these brothers killed their parents for financial gain. However, Lyle and Erik have always maintained that they fired out of fear, citing years of physical and emotional abuse at their parents' hands.

It stars Javier Bardem and Chloë Sevigny as the parents, while Nicholas Alexander Chavez and Cooper Koch play Lyle and Erik Menendez, respectively.

From the minds of people like Ian Brennan and Paris Barclay, this series explores the lesser-known traumas responsible for this horrific crime. This series follows the enormous success of the first Monsters season, which chronicled the story of Jeffery Dahmer.
