Gacy, who appeared to be an upstanding member of his Chicagoland community, worked as a part-time clown named Pogo at children’s birthday parties during the time of the brutal killings.

No one suspected the father-of-two was actually a cold-blooded killer capable of gruesome crimes.

Gacy, who was a closeted homosexual and married twice, went on the six-year killing rampage in a Chicago suburb between 1972 and 1978. He tortured, raped and strangled his male victims before disposing of their bodies in a crawl space.

The corpses were found under his home in 1978. He was subsequently convicted of 33 murders and was executed in 1994.

The three-part Netflix series takes a deep dive into Gacy’s pyche. It describes the method by which he committed the murders with the help of hours of never-before-heard audio tapes recorded between him and his lawyers.

In it he recounts in eerie recordings how he outwitted police and how he believed his victims were “not human beings.” He also said “Clowns can get away with anything. Clowns can get away with murder,” according to a report form the Daily Mail.

It also showcases interviews with survivors and others affected by his brutal crimes.

The US Sun reported in October of last year that one of his 33 victims was identified 45 years after going missing thanks to DNA testing. That victim was Francis Wayne Alexander, whose remains were among the first found in the crawl space in 1978.

At the time his sister, Carolyn Sanders, said “it is hard, even 45 years later, to know the fate of our beloved Wayne. He was killed at the hands of a vile and evil man.”

The docuseries is not the first about one of America’s most infamous killers. Last year the six part documentary “John Wayne Gacy: Devil in Disguise was released.

It revealed that authorities knew Gacy was a sexual predator, but was still able to evade law enforcement for more than a decade before his arrest.

The new series examines the double life of Gacy, who was also an aspiring Democratic politician, while moonlighting as a part time clown, who masqueraded as a hellish harlequin.
