He believed he was not only a Vampire King, but also Jesus Christ. Marcus Wesson preached his bizarre beliefs to his massive family, and his children grew up not knowing anything about the outside world, or how unorthodox their lives were. His reign of brainwashing, manipulation and terror… ended in 2004 with the deadliest mass murder in the history of one northern California city.

Trigger Warning: This episode deals with incest, and the sexual abuse and murder of minors. However, we believe is an important lesson in what can happen when children are not protected, and an intelligent master-manipulator is left to his own devices. Listener discretion is advised.
