New Documentary Explores Abuse Allegations Against Marilyn Manson

Channel 4's three-part series examines the claims of abuse against the controversial musician and the cultural impact of his career.

The documentary, titled 'Marilyn Manson: Unmasked,' airs on Channel 4 from January 14 to 16, featuring testimony from accusers and former collaborators.
Evan Rachel Wood, Manson's former partner, accused him in 2021 of grooming, abuse, and manipulation, leading to over a dozen similar claims from other women.
Manson has consistently denied all allegations, describing them as distortions of reality, and dropped a defamation lawsuit against Wood in late 2024, agreeing to pay her legal fees.
The series raises broader questions about the music industry's role in enabling abusive behavior and the blurred lines between performance personas and real-life actions.
Manson, who recently released a new album and is preparing for a world tour, continues to attract both a devoted fanbase and ongoing scrutiny.
