Ep. 19 : Rod Ferrell’s Vampire Masquerade

We fully endorse sucking on lollipops, popsicles, and sometimes even thumbs. What did you think we were going to say? We're married women! But we just can't get behind sucking on blood.
Rod Ferrell didn't get the memo. In 1996, he and his fellow nerds formed vampire clans in Murray, KY and embraced the "vampiric lifestyle." Whatever that means. Unfortunately, Rod was unable to separate fact from fiction and his otherworldly fantasies bled into real life, taking the lives of two innocents. This story takes us from Kentucky to Florida, all the way to Baton Rouge, Louisiana. We'll get into what it's like to be a vampire in a world full of lowly humans and ask the hard questions, like was Rod really a blood sucking demon? Spoiler alert : no. At the close, Halee treats us with some delicious peanut butter cookies. Happy Haunting!


Rod Ferrell, aka Vesago, the 500-year-old vampire.


Rod’s clan after departing from his “sire” Jaden.


Rod was “turned” by Jaden one night in a dark cemetery. Classic. Nothing says vampire like black lipstick and a red room.


This one speaks for itself, but I’d say this look is pretty legit. Dracula would be proud.


Brothers “Jaden” and “Gabriel” are not just blood brothers, but actually related by blood because they’re real brothers. I know. It’s confusing. Their mama calls “bullshit.”


Heather Wendorf joined Rod’s clan in November 1996. Some believe she had a hand in the murder of her parents, Naoma and Richard Wendorf. She has always maintained her innocence.


Rod was raised by a single mother. Shonda had some issues of her own arise during Rod’s trial.


You’re gonna have to tune in to see what this one’s about.
