Evan Peters starrer Monster has been renewed for a second season after massive success, but not all fans are happy with the news.

Netfflix’s ‘Monster’ Starring Evans Peter Has Been Renewed for Season 2, but Not Everyone Is Thrilled by the Decision

Every time Netflix renews or cancels the show, a wave of criticism by fans hit
them. Now, the chilling stories of Dahmer’s victims brought out the horror along
with some drama surrounding it. The brutality of these murders was essential to
be shown to the masses but also faced backlash for profiting off such a tragedy.
Despite it all, it was Evan Peters who received much credit for his impeccable
acting, leading to the renewal of the show.

As per Screenrant [https://screenrant.com/monster-season-2-news-updates/],
Monster season 2 will put focus on a new killer and his streak of victims.
Despite the first season’s criticism, the show got great reviews, with Evan even
bagging award nominations for his work. Having worked in American Horror Story,
the actor has enough experience in doing gory roles and will still appear in the
second season through a new villain.



But the first season was based on a true crime story, which makes one wonder if
it will inspire the second season on true incidents. It followed the story of
Jeffrey Dahmer, who murdered around 17 men of different ages between 1978-1991.
The OTT platform tends to fuel anger when a good series gets canceled while
others are renewed. In the case of Monster, it was a successful show, but it was
also supposed to be a limited series.

When the update about renewal was posted on Twitter by PopTingz, not everyone
was too excited. Here is what they had to say.


TWITTERATI IS UNIMPRESSED AS NETFLIX RENEWS THE EVAN PETERS STARRED SHOW MONSTER

If there is one place that will ground news with honesty, it is Twitter.

While the gory drama thriller gets ready to land on the OTT platform again, fans
are not very pleased.

Fans are upset at the thought of a gory real-life-based series like this one
getting renewed, especially since some of their favorite shows got
canceled. Another one pointed out how the families of the victims could get
affected by seeing the makers profit off of such traumatic events.

But often fans tend to watch the shows despite criticizing them. So perhaps
Monster 2
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-after-several-mixed-reviews-netflix-to-renew-docuseries-monster-based-on-the-life-of-jeffrey-dahmer/]could
find its fan base among lovers of gory scenes. The series is expected to release
somewhere between 2024-25, although Evan Peters is yet to talk about it openly.
