A new Netflix series is leaving viewers terrified and anxious after watching every episode. 

Plenty of gripping dramas and thrillers have dropped on the streaming platform in recent weeks.

Lately, everyone has been talking about Can You See Us?, which people are dubbing the ‘saddest film ever’.

While others are raving about a ‘massively underrated’ crime drama starring Sylvester Stallone and Robert De Niro.

But now a new series – which has found itself in Netflix’s Top 10 – has become the one to watch.

Watch the trailer for the show below…

Dear Child, which is based on the novel of the same name by Romy Hausmann, is entirely dubbed from the original, which is in German.

The miniseries follows a woman’s escape from captivity and how investigators aim to find out the truth behind the disappearance which took place 13 years prior.

The woman is joined in the hospital by a girl named Hannah who appears to be her daughter – and from then on things just get more and more bizarre.

Many people who’ve watched the movie have taken to social media and admitted that the show actually left them disturbed.
