Influence and A Suffocatingly Lonely Death deal with sensitive issues and have similar themes like child abuse and revenge. Both series share a similar dark atmosphere and their main characters are pretty complex.

These are their similarities:
1. Both a not episodic mystery drama.
2. Involves guessing of who is the true killer.

In both dramas, a group of children experience trauma in "welfare centers" and grow up carrying the scars into adulthood. Years later, a series of inexplicable murders begins to unfold, forcing them to confront the past they thought they had buried.

Both stories are filled with secrets, deeply hidden, slowly revealed, and always more complex than they seem.

Each drama is masterfully crafted, especially when it comes to plot twists. Just when you think you've identified the culprit, the narrative shifts and turns everything upside down.

If you enjoy dark mysteries with layered characters and psychological depth, these two are excellent companion watches.
