What is the best way to watch Under the Banner of Heaven Episode 1 online?

This week, if you watch Under the Banner of Heaven online, you’ll be immersed in a true-crime double homicide. Yes, Hulu has turned Jon Krakauer’s best-selling book into a new series starring Andrew Garfield and Daisy Edgar-Jones, if that title seems familiar.

Under the Banner of Heaven is set in 1984 and follows Jeb Pyre (Garfield), a soft-spoken investigator whose strong Mormon faith is disturbed by what he discovers in a Salt Lake Valley suburb. Pyre has arrived to examine Brenda Wright Lafferty’s (Edgar-Jones) and her infant daughter’s deaths. Pyre is the type of detective who believes his society doesn’t even need to lock its doors because it is so charming. Pyre’s discoveries continue beyond those two, despite townfolk’s warnings to cease digging. When Pyre gets to the bottom of the story, he uncovers hidden realities about the LDS religion’s origins, information that shakes Pyre to his core. Everything you need to know about watching Under the Banner of Heaven online is right here.
