Renowned author Stephen King, famous for his spine-tingling novels and short stories, has found himself on the receiving end of a gripping experience that he didn’t pen himself. The master of horror recently took to social media to express his astonishment after watching the hit new Netflix series Baby Reindeer, a psychological thriller that has left audiences on the edge of their seats.
In a tweet that quickly garnered attention, King simply wrote, “BABY REINDEER: Holy shit.”
Just recently released, Baby Reindeer has swiftly become a topic of conversation among streaming TV enthusiasts. The series follows the story of a young woman who becomes entangled in a web of deception and manipulation orchestrated by a charismatic but strange new figure in his life. As the narrative unfolds, viewers are taken on a journey through twists and turns, leaving them questioning reality and the true intentions of the characters.
The buzzy new series is a British black comedy-thriller created by and starring Richard Gadd. It’s also a direct adaptation of the comedian’s autobiographical stage show that shares the same title. The Netflix show is inspired by his very real experience of surviving being stalked and sexually assaulted early on in his career.

With King’s seal of approval, Baby Reindeer is poised to help solidify its place as a standout addition to the Netflix catalog, joining the ranks of other acclaimed psychological dramas that King adores, such as The Diplomat, Kleo, and Dark.
