Behind the grin lies a monster.
When a string of brutal murders shocks the Pacific Northwest, a taunting smiley face scrawled across anonymous confessions turns the investigation into a chilling game of cat and mouse. As the bodies pile up, law enforcement races against time, haunted by the eerie symbol that seems to mock their every move.
But this isn’t just the story of a killer. It’s the story of those left in his wake—victims silenced too soon, families shattered by grief, and a society struggling to understand how evil can wear such an ordinary face.
Told with unflinching honesty and cinematic intensity, Smiley Face peels back the layers of one of America’s most disturbing serial killer cases. Blending investigative detail, psychological depth, and raw human emotion, this true crime thriller explores the darkness hiding behind a familiar grin—and the legacy of terror it left behind.
For fans of Mindhunter, I'll Be Gone in the Dark, and The Stranger Beside Me, this is not just a story of murder—it's a descent into the twisted mind of a man who signed his crimes with a smile.
