In season four of Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building, Charles, Oliver, and Mabel found themselves solving the murder of Sazz Pataki, adding another layer of intrigue to their building’s seemingly endless mysteries. With this, there are various questions about the next season of the series. Here is all we know about Only Murders in the Building Season 5.

Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building has been renewed for a fifth season following the climactic finale of season four, which resolved the mystery of Sazz Pataki’s murder. As season 5 begins, Charles, Oliver, and Mabel will once again be drawn into a new investigation after they discover the dead body of Lester, Arconia’s longtime doorman, at the building’s courtyard fountain. This shocking development suggests a deeper mystery with ties to Lester's past, adding a new layer to the series' signature blend of suspense and humor.


Season 5 is expected to explore Lester's life more deeply, particularly through flashbacks. The show’s creators hinted that fans will get a richer understanding of his connections and history at the Arconia. This investigation will also involve Sofia Caccimelio, portrayed by Téa Leoni, a new character introduced at the end of season four. Sofia approaches the trio with a case involving her missing husband, Nicky 'The Neck' Caccimelio, known as Brooklyn’s Dry Cleaning King, which might have deeper links to the building and possibly to Lester himself.

The creators have shared that they want to examine the complexities of city life and mystery while honoring New York’s unique atmosphere.
