Watch Grotesquerie: Synopsis
Ryan Murphy is back with a gleefully gruesome new freak show. Taking inspiration from police procedurals like True Detective, Murphy puts his trademark spin on the genre with this lurid and compelling 10-part series in which Niecy Nash (Scream Queens) plays a detective investigating a spate of mass murders in a small town. Read on below where we explain how to watch Grotesquerie online and stream every episode from anywhere.
As we wait for the next installment of American Horror Story to hit our screens, super-producer Murphy presents Grotesquerie to fill the Rubber Man-shaped hole in our lives. The new FX drama reunites him with collaborators such as Jon Robin Baitz (Doctor Odyssey) and Joe Baken (American Horror Stories) – fellow co-creators of this show – in addition to Emmy-winning actors Nash (Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story), Courtney B. Vance (The People vs. O.J. Simpson) and Nicholas Chavez (Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story). And, though it explores a different genre, viewers can expect some typical Ryan Murphy hallmarks: transgressive sex, lashings of gore, and unexpected narrative twists.
Grotesquerie teams up Detective Lois Tryon (Nash) with Sister Megan (Micaela Diamond) – a nun with an interest in “rituals, cults, and their place in American life” – to find the person responsible for a series of grisly killings. In close proximity to such chilling inhumanity, the case soon exposes the dark cracks in their own lives, with the alcohol-dependent Lois struggling to maintain her sanity, while Sister Megan entertains a rather sinful obsession with Father Charlie (Chavez), a progressive and rather lustful young priest.
The ace up the show’s sleeve? The addition of NFL superstar Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift’s beau and the world’s most recognisable tight end, to the main cast. Making his acting debut, the fledgling thesp will share the screen with players like Academy Award-nominee Lesley Manville (Phantom Thread), who, as stern custodian Nurse Redd, gets to deliver some sublimely outrageous lines of dialogue. And "I get a shiver in my quiver just thinking about it” is just one of them.
Grotesquerie promises to be a wildly entertaining treat leading up to spooky season. Want to know more? The following details everything you need for how to watch Grotesquerie online, for free with Hulu and from anywhere with a VPN.
