Those evil bastards killed my friend, Lauren Wagner. I grew up with her all thru high school, we had graduated only a few months before they took her. She was well liked, a real sweetheart, and after forty five years it still hurts and confuses everyone who knew her. Rest in peace, my friend.

Born in 71, grew up in the area, and still live here. This is was so terrifying back then, I feared for my mom and sister (and myself let's be real) every time they left the house. Watching the news was a nightmare. Then we experienced it all again in 84/85 with Ramirez.

I was 12-13 yrs old when this all went on. I didn't live in "LA" but in LA county. South of it . Thank God. But, my heart goes out to the victim's and their family's. I wish this and all past tragedy's never happened.😥 Love to you both. Thank you for loving all about Hollywood and all she has to bring in History. 🥰

I’m a few months late here, but thank you for covering this story. Sadly, my Mother’s friend, Lauren Wagner, was a victim… They went to High School together and Lauren was a very sweet girl and a good student, according to my Mom. She was a pretty red-headed girl. Lauren was taken from just outside of her home in Sepulveda by the two who claimed they were undercover police officers… At that time, my Mom lived just a couple blocks away from where Lauren lived and had been abducted. My family was so shaken, they ended up selling their house there and left the area, though my Great Grandmother also owned a home there and she stayed. This story still haunts my Mom all these years later. She doesn’t like to talk about it. I’m glad to know people haven’t forgotten about those 2 sick bastards and thank you for talking about Lauren. She was actually the 8th victim and when police went to tell her family the devastating news, the media had beat them to it and were already there hoping for an interview with her family. Imagine how devastated they must’ve been… This story will always get to me because this was my Mom’s friend and could’ve easily been my Mom…What the Hillside Stranglers’ victims went through is unimaginable. Those 2 demons destroyed a lot of lives and a lot of families forever. God rest the souls of those poor victims.

In the mid-1970's, my friend Sue went to their upholstery shop in Glendale to get an estimate. She talked with Kenneth Bianchi. Everything about him and the place creeped her out so completely, she left immediately.

Thank you for this stroll down true crimes lane. RIP to those that lost their lives.

you are a Great Storyteller Michael. very fascinating what can be uncovered and told by certain people like yourself. keep up the great work

I lived through that. Both my sister-in-law & I had jobs that we were driving home late @ night. My hubs worried more about her: she was more trusting & drove a car. I drove a '66 Chevy 3/4 ton pickup & had more attitude. Years later I had someone light me up as if they were police. When they approached the car & realized I wasn't alone (hubs had reclined his seat, not feeling well) they took off. I drove to the closest county sheriff station & reported it. Stay alert out there...

Another great true crime video, Michael. The gentleman was correct - these things never really disappear. The horror and aftermath may fade over time, but still always remain. The only thing we can all hope to gain is education and awareness - monsters will always live among us. Love to you and Jessica - glad you made it home from your long trip safe and sound! 💚

Very sad, but you can’t change history. May they rest in peace. Thank you as always.

I moved to LA in 2015 from a neighboring (much safer) county and have lived near the NELA neighborhoods where several of the victims bodies were dumped. This entire area has always had a very dark and malevolent energy for me personally. Knowing more about the crimes that happened in this area, it makes total sense. Even on a sunny day, there is just this palpable air of doom around here. I have never felt completely comfortable living here. I feel like something dark is always in the air.

Great footage I have never seen before. Buono walking out when cops are honking. Awesome

Love the ones where you line up old shots to present day scenes.

These are definitely my favorite videos that you do. Telling real stories about crime and haunted locations.

Awesome video! My mom was raised in Glendale and actually worked with a woman who was married to Peter buono, who was the nephew of Angelo buono. And in her square dancing class she knew a woman who was murdered by them. She was found in Angeles crest national forest. My moms dance class had to go in packs and escort people out in groups. Very scary.

I moved to Hawthorne in 1977 at age 13 from Pismo Beach. Seen reports about all the murders while they were going on. Of course we walked everywhere as kids. We just went in larger groups to like the mall or movies. Moved back to Pismo Beach the summer of 1978. We missed the small town feel and being so close to the ocean also not having to worry about serial killers. It was a scary living in LA at that time. We still drive to LA sometimes but it’s nice to live in a smaller town. Thanks Michael for another great video

One of the best Hillside Strangler documentaries EVER!! Lots of new photos & video footage I've never seen before. My only complaint is IT WASN'T LONG ENOUGH

Such a sad case. I remember picking up the book Two Of A Kind by Darcy O'Brien back in 1985 (I still have it) lol I couldn't believe the things that Buono an Bianchi did to those girl's. The innocent lives that were takin was senseless. They were monsters. It still appalls me to this day what those two did. While much focus is on the homicidal cousin's, let's not for get the victims, God rest their souls.

Hi Michael, just a heads up.. KZfaq has been demonitizing videos that have crime scene photos. Even 50 year old photos. Great video, as usual. You and Jess are the best!

From creator to creator I don't know how you got this video monetized, just with the hoops I know I have to go though with my videos. But its a great video.. Always happy when you make a video friend..

Micheal and Jessica even thou i live in the uk i do remember this case . very sad for the familys and thankyou for another tour many thanks to u both

That "California Soul" song that they play during the trailer is one of the baddest songs from the late 60's and I've always thought it would make a badass intro song for a film about Cali.

Born in 72 and lived right down Colorado Blvd in Eagle Rock. Vaguely remember being afraid of the hillside stranglers, but for me Ramirez was the creature of my nightmares.

Rest in peace Lauren and may God bless your family and keep them safe… I don’t know how they deal with that every minute of every day of every week of every month of every year it’s constant pain. I hope God can relieve the pain from the family and friends.

I grew up in Long Beach and a buddy of mine was from Glendale. He bought a '64 Chevy convertible that needed a new top and Buono did the work. My friend lived just a couple of blocks away and he's still in shock about the whole thing to this day. He still has the car and calls it the "Buono Mobile". How many guys own a car that a serial killer worked on?

I grew up in Glendale, California & I was about 16 yrs old when the Hillside Stranglers were in the NEWS & I was so HAPPY & RELIEVED when the Police caught them. GOD BLESS ALL THEIR VICTIMS & EVERYONE WHO LOVES THEM ❤️🙏

Thanks for plugging the documentary on Hulu. I really liked it. Surprised, though, that they talked about the freeway killer and not Randy Kraft, the scorecard killer. For a while they didn't know that there were 2 separate killers.

That's so sad. Seems like it just keeps getting worse and worse, but I'm glad they caught him. Thank you Micheal for sharing this story. I've never heard about this before. I feel bad for so many homeless people today too. I pray for all of them.

Absolutely love you guys, your presentation and your content!!! Always excited when I see the notification of a new video!!! 🤘🏻

I am obsessed with serial killers and the hillside stranglers are up there for me great video, amazing how many serial killers where active in LA at the same time in the 70s and 80s!

Intense CreePy stuff---- i never heard of the Hillside Strangler. Again, you GriMMs make it SO interesting, and to think of all the ticking time bombs of wackos that have come and gone (hidden in the woodwork), in the history of true crime LA, just blows the mind.... Thanks, again, GriMMs, for great reporting.... :^)"""""""

The crazy story I need to tell you of a serial killer . Richard Ramirez. When I was visiting my mom in his raign of terror. He stuck blocks away from my mom's home. 😳 Believe me.. widows and doors were locked at that time. For me that was dramatic. Thank God he was cought.

By the way great channel. Always curious content - well presented.

Upon seeing victim / crime scene locations like that, always makes me wonder, what the residents of the property or street must think if they know the history

Been In Burbank California For 39 Years 🙌🏻 Love Your Videos.

Again…..best theme music on KZfaq. Keep up the great informative work! Also, when’s the next Live Feed show? Hopefully sooner than later.

Mrs. Peele: where is the body? There's always a body!

Wow that river

I wonder if that new car lot knows what happened on their lot?

During my police career I investigated three homicides in Louisiana committed by 3 serial killers who, of course, began in SoCal and were caught there.
