JOHN WAYNE GACY IS ONE OF THE WORLD'S WORST KILLERS
-
Dubbed the 'Killer Clown', John Wayne Gacy led a terrifying double life as a children's entertainer when he wasn't secretly killing young men in his home in Chicago, Illinois.
The notorious killer claimed the lives of at least 33 victims between 1972 and 1978. Gacy's horrific crimes are detailed in the drama series, Devil in Disguise: John Wayne Gacy. The show explores how Gacy lured his victims — many of them from Chicago's Greyhound bus station — to his house where he'd then give them alcohol and drugs. He would then assault, torture, and kill them, often by strangulation.
