Garcelle Beauvais unpacks Hollywood’s most gruesome crimes in Oxygen’s new series “Real Murders of Los Angeles” — and Page Six has an exclusive first look at its trailer.
“Los Angeles, it’s glitz, it’s glamour,” Beauvais, 56, says in the preview before adding a chilling tease, “Some people would kill to make it here.”
The actress and reality TV personality — who currently stars on Bravo’s “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” — will take viewers beyond the velvet rope as the show’s narrator, guiding them through haunting stories of deception and depravity that ultimately led to death.
The lust for fame, fortune and its fatal dangers are explored in every episode.
Highlighted murders include those of Larry Austin — a silent theater operator who was gunned down at his own concession stand in 1997 — and Linda Sobek — a former Raiderette cheerleader and aspiring actress who went to a 1995 photo shoot and never returned.
Additionally, the 1990 murder of UCLA student Ronald Baker, who was stabbed in the notorious “Manson Tunnel” is featured. Notably, disturbing findings led detectives on a dark journey through the occult, which is detailed in the true crime series.

“We got the victim wearing a pentagram,” a man says in the sneak peek. “Is this a kid who’s dabbling in the occult, devil worship?”
Another speaker in the clip discusses a doctor, “who had a very dark side,” engaging in a sordid lifestyle that involved “drugs, money [and] the party scene.”
Meanwhile, a different male individual speaks of a person who seemingly employed cannibalism in their misdeeds. “Cooking your wife sounds terrible to a jury,” he says of the apparent criminal’s court battle.
Mirroring Bravo’s “Real Housewives” format, “Real Murders of Los Angeles” — premiering Friday, Oct. 6, at 9 p.m. ET on Oxygen — is the latest expansion in the network’s multi-city franchise, also including “Atlanta” and “Orange County” iterations.
