Netflix Night Stalker Doc Details the Hunt for LA's "Killer Clown" Serial Killer

Unlike most serial killers, he didn't have a pattern. The Night Stalker Richard Ramirez was just about cruelty, intimidation, and viciousness during his reign of terror in Los Angeles and San Francisco back in 1984-85. 

"He has this horrible big grin, and he's missing all these teeth. He just stared at me like a killer clown."

The just-released trailer for the new Netflix true crime documentary Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer, showcases that terror he caused with victims, survivors, and even the cops that were on his trail.

Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer premieres January 13 on Netflix.
