The Ed Gein Story Comes to Netflix

Get ready to be creeped out. Netflix is dropping a new season of Ryan Murphy’s true crime anthology series, and this time, they’re tackling the notorious serial killer and grave robber Ed Gein. The show, titled Monster: The Ed Gein Story, premieres on October 3. A new trailer shows Charlie Hunnam in a chilling transformation, and it looks like a "house of horrors" that explores the twisted mind behind the man who inspired horror icons like Norman Bates and Leatherface.

FTC Investigates Ticketmaster

In a major shake-up for music fans, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, or FTC, is now investigating Ticketmaster. The focus? Whether the company is doing enough to prevent illegal ticket bots. The probe is looking into whether Ticketmaster might have a financial reason to let these bots bypass ticket limits. If they find the company is in violation, Ticketmaster could be on the hook for billions of dollars in fines.
