CASE STUDY

Users created their accounts at thesinnerneighborhoodwatch.com, a Nextdoor-style community board for the fictional town of Keller—the setting of season two. Users played the role of “the new neighbor,” immediately becoming immersed in the town intrigue through interactive posts and private messages.

Each week, users would receive text alerts before and after the episode leading them to new events at The Sinner: Neighborhood Watch. Our experience paralleled series events, giving fans new insights into the characters and events of Season Two. The ongoing communication encouraged continuous engagement, building a synergy between the website and the series that kept fans coming back for more.

ORIGINAL CONTENT

DK designed, scripted, and produced the experience, working closely with USA to ensure a symmetry between the show and the site. New characters communicated directly with users through a wide variety of interactions, including phone calls, voice messages, texts, and video. Series stars Carrie Coon, Bill Pullman, and Hannah Gross even got in on the action, recording original dialogue so fans had plenty of easter eggs to discover.
