Eyes Without a Face

The Night Stalker's Reign of Terror

By: Scott Weiss

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A new kind of fear swept over Southern California in the summer of 1985, shattering the otherwise idylic lifestyle of the millions who called the sprawling metropolis home.

Seemingly without reason, residents began getting attacked in their homes at random by a man entering through unlocked doors and windows at night. Once inside, he enacted a level of violence on his victims only seen in horror movies.

The attacks continued throughout the summer, escalating as temperatures swelled. Law-abiding citizens became prisoners in their own homes, locking themselves in despite the oppressive heat for fear of being the next victim.

This is the terrifying ordeal of the “Night Stalker” told in chronological order as it happened in real time. Compiled together for the first time from articles and images first published by the Herald Examiner, “Eyes Without a Face” offers readers a chance to relive the nightmare that forever changed a city, and experience the remarkable act of civic heroism that resulted in the final capture of the killer.
