Netflix Viewers Stunned By 97% Rated True-Crime Series That Many Can’t Even Finish
With thousands of shows and films in Netflix’s library, it’s not unusual for some truly powerful stories to go unnoticed at first.
But this seven-episode documentary has stood out. Many who’ve watched it are calling it nothing short of an “absolute masterpiece.”
Some viewers found the content so disturbing and intense that they admitted they couldn’t even finish the show.
For those who did manage to see it through, its chilling impact lingered well beyond the final credits. The story has stayed with many for years since its original release.
She was just 26 years old when she went missing, and her body wasn’t found until two months later. The case went cold shortly after — that is, until shocking revelations came to light decades later.
In the 1990s, a woman who had attended the school—identified only as Jane Doe shared a heartbreaking story of being sexually abused by the school’s chaplain.
Her account, along with those from other survivors and witnesses, uncovered a disturbing pattern of abuse and silence within the system.
Yet, despite all the testimonies and evidence that came forward, no one has ever been charged in connection with the case.
The show, titled The Keepers, goes deep into the alleged cover-up and conspiracy that may have protected those involved.
On Reddit, one viewer started a thread asking for recommendations for a show that would leave them completely stunned and speechless.
“I’m talking jaw dropping, unexpected and applause worthy.”
Some of the responses included newer crime thrillers like Dept Q and Netflix’s popular sci-fi series Dark, but one title kept coming up again and again.
Another chimed in with: “I consume a lot of true crime and I couldn’t make it through The Keepers.”
And someone else wrote: “Very few documentaries – if any at all except this one – absolutely floor me.”
One more person confessed: “This one lives rent free in my head. It shook me to the core.” while someone else added that it was the first documentary that actually gave them a “jump scare.”
Audience scores are just as strong, with over 250 users giving it an average rating of 93 percent.
One viewer summed it up perfectly: “Since its release in 2017, The Keepers has been a top 5 documentary in my book. Brilliantly told with excellent production quality.”
All seven episodes of The Keepers are currently available to stream on Netflix, for those who are ready to dive into its deeply emotional and haunting story.
