When two strangers arrive asking about her past, their questions set off a disturbing chain of events across Crystal Lake.

Brad Caleb Kane created, wrote and executive-produced the series; Michael Lennox, Celine Held, Logan George and Quyen Tran directed its eight episodes.

A scripted companion to Peacock's 2021 documentary of nearly the same name, the eight-episode drama revisits Gacy's murders in 1970s Chicago while deliberately shifting the spotlight away from the killer and onto his victims and the investigation that finally stopped him.
