The Doodler is an unidentified serial killer believed responsible for between six and sixteen murders and three assaults of men in San Francisco, California, United States, between January 1974 and September 1975. The nickname was given due to the perpetrator's habit of sketching his victims prior to stabbing them to death. The perpetrator met his victims at gay nightclubs, bars and restaurants.

The suspect was described as a black man between 19 and 25 years of age. He was about six feet tall with a slender build. Several victims were stabbed in the front and back of their bodies in similar locations. All of the victims were white males.
