NETFLIX viewers have been left 'scared to sleep' after watching the latest psycholigcal thriller to climb Netflix's charts, Dear Child.<\/p>\n
The limited series has created a massive buzz on social media since its release and had its audience 'on the edge' of their seats, glued to their TVs.<\/p>\n

Netflix's Dear Child is a German miniseries novel adaptation of the same name written by German author Romy Hausmann.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It narrates the story of a woman who suffered a catastrophic car accident – but things are not all what they seem.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The mysterious series premiered on the streaming giants platform on September 7 and has six episodes that follow the story of a woman called Jasmine (Kim Riedle) and a child called Hannah (Naila Schuberth), who appears to her daughter.<\/p>\n
Jasmine's unexpected appearance at the hospital after the car accident and her inability to remember anything apart from a brutal rape raises suspicions, with police who end up reopening a 13-year-old missing case.<\/p>\n

A girl who has a special view of the world, a special way of speaking, thinking and experiencing."<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The gripping story is partly narrated by Hannah and mostly seen through the eyes of the victims.\u00a0<\/p>\nTop Boy fans only just realising show star was in an iconic Rihanna video<\/h3>\n
