LAST CALL: BEHD THE TERRIFYG UNTOLD STORY OF NEW YORK'S GAY BAR KILLER

It was a classy gay venue and a very New York thg to do. It's one of those few gay bars where an actual nversatn n be held - i. Both victims — olr, whe-llar profsnal men, wh the heterosexual vtments of marriag and children — had last been seen at an upsle Midtown Manhattan gay piano bar lled the begs Elon Green’s terrific, harrowg, te-crime acunt of an elive serial killer who preyed upon gay men the 1990s, perfidly turng the safe havens of gay bars to huntg grounds, and semi-anonymo late-night hookups to an opportuny to kill wh impuny.

The most prolific serial killers explo the vulnerabili of the social orr; the “Last Call Killer” took advantage of gay men’s need for discretn and the enmic homophobia of law enforcement. Here was a generatn of men, more or ls, for whom was difficult to be visibly gay. Closeted gay people do, of urse, lead rich, satisfyg existenc, even if they leave fewer trac.
