A new Ted Bundy documentary is coming to Amazon

Ted Bundy documentary

Ted Bundy’s long-term girlfriend Elizabeth Kendall, her daughter Molly and other survivors will share their experiences with unsettling new details.

True crime has always held a fascination for many people but in recent years, particularly with the rise of podcasting and streaming platforms, it has become its own small industry.

Documentaries and dramatisations on tragic real-life stories tend to draw big audiences, so it’s no surprise to see another Ted Bundy project happen along.

Step forward Amazon Prime Video and new docu-series Ted Bundy: Falling for a Killer which looks to reframe the notorious serial killer’s crimes from a uniquely female perspective.

The five-part documentary is anchored by the story of Bundy’s longtime girlfriend Elizabeth Kendall and her daughter Molly, who, after nearly 40 years of silence, are sharing their experiences with new details about Bundy, the attraction he held for women and an extensive archive of never-before-seen family photos.

A chorus of women’s voices will back them up – including survivors of Bundy’s attacks, some of whom have chosen to speak out for the first time – comprising of news reporters, detectives, students and post-conviction lawyers among others.

The docu-series will launch on Friday 31 January, 2020 on Amazon Prime Video.

You can view the trailer below.
