Is this the golden state killer that would call his victims later and scare the shite out of them?
Yep, same guy. He is called Original Nightstalker (not to be confused with the later Nightstalker, Ramirez). He is also called "East Area Rapist" as well as "Golden State Killer."
All the same guy. They connected the rapes in the north (East Area Rapist) to the murders in the south (Nightstalker). For years they didn't know it was the same guy, but DNA confirmed it a number of years ago.

Cool. Amazing that he was captured, what an evil bastard.

It was regular civilians who caught Richard Ramirez and not cops.
After failing to meet his brother, he returned to Los Angeles early on the morning of August 31. He walked past officers, who were staking out the bus terminal in hopes of catching the killer should he attempt to flee on an outbound bus, to a convenience store in East Los Angeles.
After noticing a group of elderly Mexican women fearfully identifying him as "El Matador" (or "The Killer"), Ramirez saw his face on the covers on the newspaper rack and fled the store in a panic.
After running across the Santa Ana Freeway, he attempted to carjack a woman but was chased away by bystanders, who pursued him. After hopping over several fences and attempting two more carjackings, he was eventually subdued by a group of residents, one of whom had struck him over the head with a metal bar in the pursuit.
The group held him down, relentlessly beating him until police arrived and took Ramirez into custody.
