Cecil Hotel and a Night Stalker

I don’t know if 2021 is the year of serial killer “Night Stalker” Richard Ramirez and the Cecil Hotel or not, but it’s starting to feel that way. Why? Great question! After all, the Cecil is closed and Ramirez is dead. So what gives? It’s because of the premiere of threeContinue Reading
