So creepy and great!

I thought I knew everything there was to know about the night stalker. I was wrong. This audiobook goes into so much detail about the killer’s early life, his family, and his early connections that I had never heard. First, I had never heard anything at all about his parents or family history. This audiobook provides so many details about that and I was surprised and delighted. It even tells about a girlfriend he had. when he was young and it’s very interesting. It also tells a good amount of the story from the perspective of his victim prior to their deaths that I had never heard before. I highly recommend this audiobook. If you are a lover of horrifying true crime like I am, you will love this!

Bone-chilling

Author James Richmond creates the perfect portrayal of one of America’s most infamous serial killers, Richard Ramirez, providing the reader with valuable insight of his upbringing and the reasoning behind his atrocious behavior.
With a lineal narration starting from his parents' backstory, the listener gets to witness the changes in Richards personality, from being a sweet boy to a troubled teenager to the violent satan-worshiping young man famous for the brutal treatment of his victims.

Narrated by Mr. Aaron Smith, this volume as an audiobook serves to double the scare factor. With the speaker's deep british accent and cryptic tone, listening to Night Stalker is reminiscent of listening to horror stories around a campfire.
The narration pace is perfect in regards to speed, and the speaker knows when to pause or speak up to accentuate the suspense of certain scenes. The reader's style certainly helped bring the story to life.

With a four hour duration, Night Stalker is a relatively short audiobook perfect for car rides, exercise, or simply chilling at home. The story flows perfectly and never drags on for too long as it mostly focuses on Richards most influential experiences as well as detailed descriptions of his gruesome methods for choosing and annihilating his victims.

This audiobook undoubtedly deserves five stars for its ingenious retelling of Richards story, capable of leaving anyone chilled to the bone, and fitting narrator who was able sweep me away into Richards world. It is a MUST LISTEN for every crime and mystery fan or, because of it’s fast-paced nature, perfect for anyone looking to assimilate into the genre. My most sincere kudos to the author and speaker!
