Master of deceit and disguise
Revisado: 07-09-21
The author of Killer Clown, James Richmond, has become one of my favorite true-crime writers! He has a unique talent for taking information from police investigations and interviews with the killer and creating the story of the serial killer’s life. This book goes into specific details of not only John Wayne Gacy but, you learn about his family and how Gacy’s life and abusive environment became a catalyst of his transformation.
Was it a combination of a head injury, his violent father, and other family members with criminal backgrounds that pushed Gacy into a life of murder and rape? Gacy seemed to be innocent and quiet when he was young. As an adult, he was smart and well-liked to those who knew him. Below that friendly surface, he was manipulative and cunning. As the story is told, John Wayne Gacy even held grand parties in his home with his recent kill lying under the house in a crawl space. He dressed up as a cop or “Pogo the Clown” to approach his victims and lure them in.
Did you know that John Wayne Gacy was named after the movie star? Richmond explores both the victim’s feelings and last moments as well as the killer’s emotions as he writes this detailed story of John Wayne Gacy. The author provides a lot of rich details and you may have to listen twice to catch all the information that is told in this book. I would highly recommend Killer Clown, the Horrifying Story of Serial Killer John Wayne Gacy to all true-crime fanatics!

A Sadistic and Vile Killer
Revisado: 05-03-21
Night Stalker, by James Richmond, is another horrifying true-crime story that takes you to the heart and soul of a sadistic killer. Even before Richard Ramirez was born it seems he was destined to be the violent criminal that completely enveloped him as an adult. A perfect storm of events, people, brain injuries, drugs, and genetics, drove this innocent boy to the depths of evil.
Richard Ramirez was a sadistic and vile man that tortured California for years. In an interview he stated, “I murder, simply because I love it.” He was living proof of the devil. At first, he would steal for drug money. He would soon learn that murder, rape, and assault were the ultimate high.
James Richmond has a brilliant way of telling the story from the killer’s point of view. There were times during the story that I had to put the book down and breathe because of the horrific thoughts and actions of the Night Stalker. On the same token, the author has also paid tribute to the victims by telling their side of the story as it may have been during the most traumatizing events in their life.
Keep the lights on, lock your doors, and prepare yourself as you read the terrifying thriller of Night Stalker Richard Ramirez, The Horrifying True Crime Story of the Infamous Serial Killer.

Intense and Emotional
Revisado: 04-29-21
Ted Bundy, the Terrifying True Crime Story of America’s Most Notorious Serial Killer, by James Richmond, tells the story of Ted Bundy with amazing detail and emotion. Unlike other biographies and stories of Theodore Robert Bundy’s life, this book takes you to a place where it all began and delivers the intense story of the prolific serial killer, from the beginnings of his childhood up to his date of electrocution in 1989. You will be entranced in the evolution of the young man who succumbed to his need to possess women and become one of the most silent and dangerous monsters of all time.
Described as tall, blue-eyed, and handsome, Ted Bundy was able to compartmentalize his growing need to possess women. “By killing them, you possess them,” he said. Bundy used his lethal charm and what may have seemed like normal daily activities, to persuade young women into believing his ruses. He was educated, patient, and planned his attacks, sometimes for years.
One of the most intriguing parts of this book is how you can feel what the victims may have felt. The author tells the story in a unique and emotional narrative. You can connect with their last moments as you hear the logical, but terrifying, possibility of the thoughts they may have had in the final moments from both sides: the predator, Ted Bundy, and his victim’s. For the true-crime fanatic, this is a fascinating book!
