Episode 115 - The Watcher

Spread the love

In November 2018, New York Magazine published “The Watcher,” which chronicled an affluent New Jersey family being stalked by a mysterious, threatening letter writer. The article, by Reeves Wiedeman, became the basis of a Netflix limited series created by Ryan Murphy. This is a truly bizarre mystery with twists and turns and moments of deep introspection. What happens when scandal and fear are introduced into a community that has always been shielded from that type of adversity? Will they come together or be turned against their own? What happens when no one is watching the Watcher?

Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling is created for adult audiences only.
