[Updated] Will there be a Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story Season 2 on Netflix? Here's what you need to know

Here’s the crux of the article in video form:

New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

Original story (published on April 3, 2023) follows:

Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story (also known simply as ‘Dahmer’) is one of the most successful series of recent years.

The show produced by Netflix combines dramatization with elements of Dahmer’s true story, which resulted in a product that was highly valued by the public and critics in general.

Now, a rumor has surfaced about a possible Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story Season 2 on Netflix. But is this true? Here’s what you need to know.

In recent days, some Twitter accounts have been sharing a poster that supposedly confirms a ‘Dahmer’ Season 2 on Netflix.

After this, due to the popularity of the show, the rumor began to spread rapidly with thousands of people sharing and commenting on related posts.

However, many are also wondering how a ‘Dahmer’ Season 2 could be possible. After all, just like in the real story, the protagonist dies at the end.

For this reason, many fans consider a possible sequel unnecessary. They would prefer future series in the ‘Monster’ saga that star other criminals.

There is a million other serial killers they could do why tf season 2 and 3 of dahmer? Making these shits bout serial killers I personally don’t watch it but what else could you do with dahmer

That said, all the clues point to the rumor being false. First and most important, there is no official confirmation from Netflix on any of its official platforms.

The origin of the rumor may be the search for more followers and interactions by some accounts on Twitter. After all, the show was so popular that something like this was bound to make a splash.

Also, ‘The Jeffrey Dahmer Story’ is only part of one main show: ‘Monster’. The new series under the saga will probably tell the story of other criminals. That is, Dahmer is not the protagonist of the franchise.

In fact, this was confirmed by Peter Friedlander, a senior executive at Netflix. He mentioned that he was looking forward to continuing to work with Ryan Murphy on new shows within the ‘Monster’ franchise.

Anyway, it is not yet known who the Season 2 main character will be. It is only known that next seasons will be based on ‘stories of other monster figures who have impacted society‘.

So, while it is true that there will be a Monster Season 2, Dahmer will not return as the protagonist. But given the popularity of the actor who played him, maybe Evan Peters will return in another role.

02:50 pm (IST): Some fans are now speculating (1, 2, 3, 4) that John Wayne Gacy will be the protagonist of ‘Monster’ Season 2.

05:21 pm (IST): In addition to John Wayne Gacy, fans want a season based on Ted Bundy (1, 2, 3, 4). However, since Gacy appeared in Season 1, it is likely that his series will arrive first.
