Peters has past worked with Murphy on a number of projects, including nine of 10 seasons of American Horror Story, as well as the series Pose.

Peters in April told Variety about the painstaking task he had taken of researching Dahmer in depth for the role.

‘I’ve read so much, I’ve watched so much, I’ve seen so much, and at a certain point, you’ve got to say, “All right, that’s enough,”‘ he said. ‘There are beautifully written scripts. You can have all the backstory you want, but at the end of the day we’re not making a documentary.

Dahmer in 1992 was convicted of 16 murders he’d been charged with, and sentenced to 16 life sentences in prison. He was beaten to death by another inmate in November of 1994 at the Columbia Correctional Institution in Portage, Wisconsin 

‘It’s more about maintaining the idea and the through line of why you’re telling the story and always having that as your guiding light.’

The gruesome story of Dahmer has past been chronicled in the 2002 movie Dahmer, in which Jeremy Renner played the titular role; as well as 2017’s My Friend Dahmer, in which Ross Lynch played a teen version of the nascent serial killer.

Murphy is collaborating on the project with Ian Brennan. The limited series is slated to arrive on the streaming service later this year.
