This three-part Netflix docuseries delves into the harrowing crimes of Fred and Rose West, one of Britain’s most infamous serial killer couples. Spanning from 1967 to 1987, the Wests committed a series of heinous acts, including sexual abuse, torture, and murder, targeting young women and girls—some of whom were their own children. The investigation was triggered in 1994 when police discovered the remains of their daughter, Heather, buried under their patio. Subsequent excavations at their Gloucester home revealed multiple bodies, leading to Fred’s arrest and eventual suicide in 1995 before trial. Rose was convicted of 10 murders and is serving a life sentence. The series features newly uncovered police recordings and firsthand accounts, providing a chilling insight into the couple’s manipulative tactics and the enduring trauma experienced by survivors and victims’ families.
