Netflix releases Lizzie Borden true crime series
Netflix has released the fourth season of its true crime anthology series, ‘Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story’. Created by Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan, the season marks the franchise's first focus on a female subject.
The series dramatizes the 1892 double homicide in Fall River, Massachusetts, where Andrew and Abby Borden were killed with hatchets. Lizzie Borden, the daughter of the victims, was the primary suspect but was ultimately acquitted in a high-profile 1893 trial. The production explores themes of gender repression, social expectations, and the psychological motivations behind the crime.
Ella Beatty stars as Lizzie Borden, with Vicky Krieps portraying the family maid, Bridget ‘Maggie’ Sullivan. The series aims to provide a nuanced look at the historical case, which remains one of America's most enduring criminal mysteries. While the show takes creative liberties with certain historical details, it centers on the tension and violence within the Borden household during the late 19th century.
