Overview

  • Industry reports say Season 4 will dramatize the 1892 axe murders of Andrew and Abby Borden and center on Lizzie’s subsequent trial and acquittal.
  • Casting for the unannounced installment is underway, with Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan eyeing a production window this fall.
  • Netflix and series representatives have declined to comment on Season 4, and no formal renewal has been announced.
  • This would mark the anthology’s first season to depict an acquitted suspect, diverging from its previous focus on convicted killers.
  • Season 3, starring Charlie Hunnam as Ed Gein, remains slated for a late 2025 premiere following the series’ record-breaking first two installments.
