Summary
Rod Ferrell led a group of teenagers who believed they were vampires, blending goth subculture with authoritarian devotion. In 1996, Ferrell and an accomplice murdered the parents of one member in a violent attempt to cement control. The case demonstrates how identity fantasy combined with cult hierarchy can culminate in real-world homicide.
