Netflix 'Baby Reindeer' gets a nod from the 'King of Horror'

Netflix’s Baby Reindeer got a powerful two-word review from legendary novelist Stephen King.

Dubbed as the ‘King of Horror,’ the author took to his X account after the hit show skyrocketed to the streaming giant’s Top 10 trending list.

“Holy sh*t,” Stephen wrote of the miniseries based on true events of Richard Gadd’s life.

The Scottish comedian starred as himself in the harrowing drama, alongside Jessica Gunning who played the role of his stalker Martha Scott. It depicts Richard’s experience of being stalked and sexually assaulted during his 20s.

Recently, Jessica spoke to Glamour and insisted that the audience stops looking for the real-life Martha.

“I didn’t know that was happening. I would urge people not to be doing that. I think if that is happening, I think it’s a real, real shame, because it shows that they haven’t watched the show properly,” she said.

On the other hand, the anonymous woman is thinking about filing a defamation lawsuit against Richard as she says his claims in the show are “false.”

“I was in Richard Gadd's company on occasions but I didn't stalk him like he claims. His story is a gross intrusion into my privacy. I haven't seen him for 12 years,” she told DailyRecord.
