‘Hollywood Demons’ Season 2 Trailer: Matthew Perry Death, Child Stars

“Hollywood Demons” Season 2 will examine five new stories touching on the dark side of fame, including Matthew Perry’s death, the rise of “The Jerry Springer Show” and child stars who became porn stars as adults.

“Hollywood can be a very dark and scary place,” someone says in the trailer for the new season of the Investigative Discovery series, which will air on April 20 at 9 p.m. on ID and will also be available to stream on HBO Max. The five-episode season promises to deliver juicy stories of Hollywood scandal.

One episode looks into “stalking” and “criminality” behind the scenes of “Saved by the Bell.” Another features a “16 and Pregnant” subject who says she became homeless after the series. And the season will focus on a few former child stars — “Phil of the Future’s” Dan Benson, “The Bold and the Beautiful’s” Maitland Ward and “A Christmas Story’s” Scott Schwartz — who transitioned into the adult film industry.

The show will also examine Perry’s 2023 death, which was caused by the effects of a ketamine overdose, and will look into the “vulgarity” and “chaos” of “The Jerry Springer Show,” with one subject claiming in the trailer: “They destroyed my life.”

“Hollywood Demons” is a docuseries from “Quiet on Set” studio Investigative Discovery and Ample Entertainment. The first season debuted in 2025 and tackled subjects including the Von Erichs wrestling dynasty, allegations against “7th Heaven” actor Stephen Collins, Power Rangers scandals and more. ID is the true crime network behind titles like “The Fall of Diddy,” “Homicide Hunter,” “See No Evil” and many more.
