Somehow, the Starz App keeps finding the most enthralling, terrifying, edge of your seat true crime stories, and making them into perfect shows. If you just finished Seduced: Inside the NXIVM Cult, and you are looking for a new show to make your skin crawl, you’ve got one.

Confronting a Serial Killer is the new series on The Starz App that people can’t stop talking about (or watching). This dark and astonishingly true story about the complex and bizarre relationship between an author and a prolific serial killer is almost too insane to believe– a game changing true crime docuseries. 

If you aren’t already on the edge of your seat in anticipation for its April 18th premiere, here is everything you need to know about Confronting a Serial Killer.

The obvious: It’s a true story.

That said– it is hard to believe what you are seeing is real. With each twist and turn, heartbreaking interview, and chilling phone call from jail, this story is as dramatic and cinematic as many award-winning films.

It is about more than just the crime.

As much as the series dives into the horrible history of violence at the hands of serial killer Sam Little, what is just as fascinating is his relationship with Jillian Lauren, the author who becomes obsessed with his life. It is ethically complicated, emotionally intense, and nerve wracking– just watch the trailer, and you will know the quote that made us all gasp out loud.

It exposes underlying injustices in our criminal justice system.

It is no secret that our justice system is full of countless kinds of injustice throughout history, and this series sheds a very personal light on a few of them, along with the loved ones of those affected.

It is about the relationship at the center of the story as much as the history of crime.

The complicated, bizarre, intimate, and very intense relationship between literal serial killer Sam Little and author Jillian Lauren is what truly sets this story apart from your classic true-crime docs. The way Lauren’s obsession with Little carries echoes of Little’s obsessiveness is chilling in and of itself, and makes you wonder what it would take to get those close to someone who has been so violent in the past.

Critics are raving about it.

If you don’t believe us, just read a couple reviews– from Deadline to Rotten Tomatoes, it seems as though anyone who watches this series only has positive takes. We understand why.

Have we convinced you yet? If you’re tempted to try this thrilling docuseries, watch it on The Starz App… We doubt you’ll be able to stop watching.
