Diana Parkes, whose daughter Joanna Simpson was killed at her home in Berkshire in 2010, has also endorsed the calls for restricted zones.

Ms Parkes, who set up the Joanna Simpson Trust in her daughter's name to support children affected by domestic abuse and homicide, said victims were "absolutely terrified" when perpetrators came out of prison.

"Every single victim I have spoken to endorses this feeling that the offender should be in a restricted zone and the victim should be able to carry on their life, because they've done nothing wrong," said Ms Parkes.

“Financially, it makes no sense whatsoever — those things are ridiculously expensive,” Neon’s chief marketing officer, Christian Parkes, admits in a separate phone call.

When Neon first met with “Longlegs” writer-director Osgood Perkins, Parkes’ team pitched a cryptic viral ad campaign that put viewers in the perspective of Maika Monroe’s detective, who seeks to unmask the enigmatic titular serial killer.
