The Vampire Killer Who Drank The Blood Of His Victims And Ate Their Remains

Richard Chase used to kill people for the sake of blood…

Born in May 1950 and died in December 1980, Richard Trenton Chase was an American rapist and serial killer. He killed six people in Sacramento, California, within a month. In addition to the Vampire Killer, he was nicknamed as The Dracula Killer and The Vampire of Sacramento. The worst part is that he used to drink the blood of his victims and had been cannibalizing their remains.

In case you are not aware, cannibalism is the act of consuming another person’s remains or body parts as food. Human cannibalism has been documented in ancient and recent times.

How It All Started?

Richard Trenton Chase was a native of California. At the age of 10, he exhibited evidence of the Macdonald triad. This archaic theory suggests the development of psychopathy. When he grew up, Richard Chase became a drug addict. He also developed hypochondria and used to complain about the slow heartbeat. Other than this, he was often found to be saying that somebody was stealing his pulmonary artery.

The Dracula Killer basically thought that his cranial bones had separated and that they were moving around all the time. So, he finally decided to shave his head in order to observe all of these activities.

After leaving the house of his parents, Richard Trenton Chase rented an apartment with a few friends. One of his friends claimed that the killer was under the influence of marijuana, LSD, and alcohol and that he had made their lives difficult. He was often found to be walking around the apartment without clothes, and this is when his friends asked him to leave the apartment. Upon refusal, they decided to move out.

He was left alone by everyone. He started capturing, killing disemboweling different animals. It was probably due to a lack of money. He often mixed the raw organs with his favorite soft drink. Gradually, Richard Trenton Chase began thinking that the consumption of animal meat was good for his health.
