Chucky’s Latest Kill at The White House Is His Most Heartbreaking Murder To Date
USA Network

Though the third season is only two episodes in, the horror series has already delivered one of the show’s most shocking deaths to date. While Chucky had already killed a Secret Service agent this season, the second episode sees the pint-sized murderer killing the President’s Secretary. However, it’s Chucky’s third kill that proved to be seriously shocking to fans of the series.

After realizing that the killer doll is in The White House, Jake, Devon, and Lexi come up with a plan to get inside and stops Chucky’s reign of terror. In order for their plan to succeed, the trio have their guardian Ms. Fairchild take a meeting at The White House to speak with the First Lady on their behalf. While waiting for Mrs. Collins, Ms. Fairchild looks at a photo of Edith Roosevelt, the First Lady to President Theodore Roosevelt. Like, the former First Lady, Ms. Fairchild is devoted to her children, which only makes what happens next even more heartbreaking.

From behind, Chucky wraps an American flag around Ms. Fairchild’s head, stands on her shoulders, and starts to suffocate her. As he kills Ms. Fairchild, the murderous dolls taunts his latest victim by saying, “I just couldn’t resist the thought of making those kids orphans one more time.”

If that wasn’t brutal enough, Chucky also calls Jake, Devon, and Lexi from Ms. Fairchild’s cell phone, revealing their guardian’s death and telling the trio that he’s waiting for them, adding that this Halloween will be the bloodiest yet. Notably, the fourth episode is officially titled “Halloween III: Season of the Witch.”

As with prior seasons, Chucky season 3 will have eight episodes in total, but only half of them will air this year, meaning there’s only two more to go before the show’s hiatus.

Additionally, unlike other seasons, Chucky season 3 will be available to stream the day after its releases on cable, so fans can catch the latest episodes on Peacock on Thursdays. The first two seasons of Chucky are available to watch on Peacock and Shudder.
