In the summer of 1985, the city of Los Angeles was held in a grip of terror by an elusive killer. He came at night entering through unlocked doors and windows, targeting houses at random, blending in with the shadows, as silent and deadly as cyanide gas. Brutalizing and robbing his victims, forcing them to swear to Satan, driven by heavy metal music and narcotics and what he believed was the power of Satan himself. It seemed no one was safe from who the press dubbed ‘The Night Stalker.’This is a firsthand account of the authors ten-year correspondence with him on San Quintin’s Death Row, where he awaited execution for twenty-three years before dying of natural causes on June 7, 2013.Packed with newspaper clippings, interviews, artwork from the killer himself, this book gets you up close and personal with the real Richard Ramirez. It is sure to surprise you.
Nothing factually new here , some regurgitated magazine interviews. A few of the authors own letters are interesting, although some have already been seen on the internet. The book has Ramirez year of birth incorrect, 1969 ??? Then it becomes a concern as to what other ‘facts’ might be incorrect. Worth a read if free with kindle unlimited, definitely would not waste money buying this.
Trick or Treat! And what's in the bag at the haunted Helloween House Noctuary this year so far? Along with a plethora of indulgent infernal oblations, arrives a book from The Devil's messengers emerging from deepest darkness...
Letters From The Night Stalker by Marquis HK. A veritable scrapbook of personal correspondence, biographical crimeline, a plethora of newspaper clippings, photos, and relations with ЯR spanning a decade.
Written by an aficionado of the true crime genre and Church of Satan member, we get commentary from a Satanic perspective on this intriguing serial killer, an unapologetic, unrepentant devil worshiper reveling in the nightmarish characterization, and the veritable "blood sacrifices" of this veritable "Messenger of The Devil".
Makes a great complement to the definitive The Life & Crimes of Richard Ramirez [Carlo] & Nightstalker {Linedecker]. ∞
It was a overall accurate book on the crimes when it briefly touched upon that. But I felt as if it was more about the author and their life and interests rather than about Richard. The letters were interesting to read, I feel like I have learned more about him now and the author did a good job on explaining the context of each letter to explain what Richard was referring to. However, there are spelling and grammar errors so there were a few times I got confused reading this book.
