Janet Leigh stand-in murder site

In 1988, Myra Davis, who worked as Janet Leigh’s stand in during the filming of Psycho, was found dead in her home at 2917 S Beverly Dr. The 79-year-old woman has been raped and strangled. It took 2 1/2 years, and another elderly rape and murder victim, before police found the killer of both women.

The non-fiction book “The Girl In Alfred Hitchock’s Shower” details the case and the killer’s alleged infatuation with the movie “Psycho.”
