Description
New York City in the 1970s was a nightmare. Crime was exploding, the streets felt lawless, and terrified residents wondered if the police had lost control. Then things got worse. As fear spread across the city, one of the deadliest serial killers in American history began hunting victims from the shadows, turning New York into a real-life horror story. On this episode of Weird History we take a look at what it was like to be in New York while the Son of Sam terrorized the city.
Do you know any New Yorkers who survived the summer of Sam? Let us know in the comments.
(Much like real history, this video was produced entirely by human beings.)
