He believed his blood was turning to dust… and the only cure was killing.

In this chilling episode of True Crime Files, we explore the terrifying case of Richard Chase, known as The Vampire of Sacramento. A disturbed killer who claimed he was being poisoned and that drinking blood was the only way to stay alive, Chase went on a brutal rampage in the late 1970s — leaving behind a trail of horror that shocked the nation.

We dive deep into his early signs of psychosis, the gruesome crimes, the disturbing psychological profile, and the chilling court testimony that revealed a mind truly disconnected from reality.

Was he a monster created by mental illness… or something far more sinister?

🔪 One of the most disturbing cases in American true crime history — listen now, if you dare.
