Netflix and Ryan Murphy confirmed today that the next Monster' anthology will be titled Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story

Following the massive success of DAHMER - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, Netflix ordered two additional installments of the record-breaking anthology series from Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan.

DAHMER, the record-breaking first iteration of Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan's Monster' anthology, reached 1 billion view hours in its first 60 days, making it only one of four series to achieve this milestone.

To date for DAHMER, Niecy Nash-Betts has won the Critics Choice Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series, the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actress in a Limited Series, and received both SAG and Golden Globe nominations for her performance; Evan Peters took home the Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Limited Series and received a SAG nomination for his portrayal; and Richard Jenkins and the series received Golden Globe nominations.

Netflix also has exclusive access to Lyle and Erik Menendez for a forthcoming documentary feature.

About DAHMER - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story Between 1978 and 1991, Jeffrey Dahmer gruesomely took the lives of seventeen innocent victims. DAHMER - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story is a series that exposes these unconscionable crimes, centered around the underserved victims and their communities impacted by the systemic racism and institutional failures of the police that allowed one of America's most notorious serial killers to continue his murderous spree in plain sight for over a decade.
