The Serial Killers: The Night Stalker

by Mark Simpson

Targeting California in the 1980s, the man dubbed the ‘Night Stalker’ by the tabloid newspapers rewrote the rules of serial killing. Strangulation, stabbing, beating, and stomping were all used interchangeably to subdue victims. The randomness of his violence reflected the aimlessness of his targets, as he drove around neighborhoods in stolen cars until his eyes alighted on a house, which he would subsequently slip into and attack the occupants.

Ramirez’s crimes were brutal in their methodology and shocking in their volume. He received thirteen death sentences for murders spanning the Los Angeles and San Francisco areas between 1984 and 1985; and was charged with a further five attempted murders, eleven sexual assaults and fourteen counts of burglary in a spree of unbridled violence and terrorisation.

The Serial Killers series lifts the lid on some of the world's most notorious serial killers and criminals. The narrative outlines the crimes of the killer, exploring the motives and impulses which led the perpetrator to commit their crimes.
