Warner Bros. Discovery has acquired Stan Originals crime thriller “The Killings at Parrish Station.”
The series, which has been acquired from ITV Studios for HBO Max, is a mystery thriller where cold case crime, investigative drama and soft horror intertwine across two timelines.
“In 1987, Detective Georgia Cooke is called in to investigate a gruesome massacre at a remote research station in the scorching outback,” the synopsis reads. “Four scientists have been brutally murdered in inexplicable ways, and a lone survivor is the obvious suspect.
“But as Georgia digs deeper, unravelling a complex case entangled in mania, ritual and the occult, her obsessive quest for the truth spirals into a nightmare that will put her family, her career and her sanity on the line. And 37 years later, a chilling new spree of murders will pull Georgia back into this nightmare as she confronts the terrifying possibility that the horrors at Parrish Station were never fully buried… “
