Shudder, AMC Networks' premium streamer for horror, thriller and the supernatural, announced the new original docu-series Behind the Monsters, which takes a deep dive on cinematic horror icons. Each of the series' six episodes will focus on a single horror character, including Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers, Candyman, Chucky and Pinhead, and feature interviews with horror experts and the writers, directors and actors from the original films that made each character the stuff of genre legends.
There is no Next Episode of Behind the Monsters planned.
S1E4 - Freddy Krueger
In 1984 Wes Craven saw the slasher boom filling screens and took it to the next level by leaving reality behind. Other slashers carved through teen bodies; Freddy invaded their minds.

S1E5 - Jason Voorhees
The producers just wanted to rip off HALLOWEEN. What happened instead was the accidental creation of a machete-wielding avatar of conservative 1980s morality.
Air Date: 23 Nov 2021 11:00 (CDT)
S1E6 - Pinhead
Emerging from a low budget independent film, this character who was simply called "Lead Cenobite" would become the undeniable symbol of pleasure and pain and the icon of the Hellraiser franchise.
