Listen up, true crime fans, there’s a new series you don’t want to miss, “The Pet Cemetery Murders: A Ghost Story.” The new three-part true-crime docuseries comes from two-time Academy Award-winning producer Simon Chinn and Emmy Award-winning producer Jonathan Chinn. Helmed by director Philip Cairney, the series investigates the gruesome, unsolved murder of Dorothy Thompson. The story centers on the owner of a local pet cemetery in St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana.

The fourth installment of Ryan Murphy’s true-crime anthology has arrived with “Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story.” And true to form, historical fidelity takes a back seat to grand cinematic spectacle. Rather than delivering a grounded exploration of the infamous 1892 Fall River ax murders, Murphy opts for sensationalized drama, exaggerated psychosexual tropes, and timeline manipulation. While long-time viewers of the franchise have come to expect artistic license over forensic accuracy, the sheer volume of historical liberties taken in this season creates a vast divide between the real-life figures and their screen counterparts. The Real Lizzie Borden vs. Murphy’s Caricature The most glaring departure in the series lies in the characterization of Lizzie Borden herself. Murphy frames Lizzie as an isolated, bumbling, and deeply bizarre outcast who spends her days lurking in the family parlor. The historical record paints a drastically different picture. The real Lizzie was an active, well-regarded member of her community. She served in local social clubs, held

When horror enthusiasts reflect on the Golden Age of Universal Monsters, iconic figures like Dracula, Frankenstein’s Monster, and the Mummy dominate the discussion. Yet, several foundational characters laid the groundwork for that legendary roster without always receiving equal recognition. Universal Pictures released The Hunchback of Notre Dame starring Lon Chaney, establishing a cinematic bridge to classic creature features. Though Victor Hugo’s gothic narrative is not a pure horror story, Quasimodo’s tragic disfigurement and societal isolation helped invent the monster archetype that defined cinema for decades. In the past, however, screen adaptations of Hugo’s work have varied wildly. They range from lighthearted tragicomedies to Disney’s animated musical standard. Beneath every interpretation lies an inherently macabre core built on obsession, societal cruelty, and dark urban atmosphere. Director Jean-François Richet aims to tap into those gothic roots in his upcoming Netflix feature, The Hunchback, Soul of Paris. He wants to give the classic tale a grounded, sinister edge.
