About this episode

Four troubled teens' robbery turns into a horrifying encounter with a vampire cult.

Four troubled teens choose a quiet family home for what they think will be a simple robbery. But their leader’s obsession with vampire lore turns the break-in into something far more horrifying. Inspired by a real home invasion case, this story follows one night of fear, violence, and irreversible choices. ▶ Source: Rod Ferrell and the “Vampire Clan” Murders — Oxygen True Crime https://www.oxygen.com/deadly-cults/how-rod-ferrell-vampire-clan-went-from-teen-blood-rituals-to-killing-parents Huge thanks to our sponsors: BetterHelp: Sign up now and get 10% off at ⁠betterhelp.com/dns⁠.
