EP37 The Harrowing Tale of Richard Chase: "The Vampire (but not really) of Sacramento", with special guests Mostly Horror

At this point, Vampires are commonplace in pop culture...and the nice thing about being undead is being able to inhabit every possible style, time period and hot bod. However....our "vampire" today had questionable style, and we'd rather throw up than say he was hot. He also wasn't truly a vampire...but he did sincerely believe that unless he consumed human blood, he would surely die. Unfortunately, a lot of people died before he did. For Richard Allen Chase......"descent into madness" would be an understatement. This story is horrible, but the fantastic guests we have make it an episode you're not gonna want to miss!
